But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Today is a solemn day of remembrance for the millions murdered in the Holocaust.
On the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, we look to our history as a warning against the dangers of antisemitism and intolerance and honor the promise: never again.

The reality is that these positions are more important than Sec of Defense because they will do all the work and define all strategies. He won't freelance decisions.

What do you have planned ?
The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good.
Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.
Speaking of healthcare. Let's make @bsky.app the platform that fights misinformation. Some great follows are @drsusanoliver.bsky.social @jsm2334.bsky.social @therealtruther.bsky.social

Dr. King spread a message of justice and persisted in the face of hatred.
His legacy calls us to serve each other and to continue striving towards a more inclusive and united Minnesota.
Just had to post this because it seems so appropriate for anyone in DC right now.
Wish I could get the Village People to sing it during the inauguration 😂

This stunt with TikTok genuinely reminds me of an abusive relationship… the constant anxiety and uncertainty is manufactured by the abuser to manipulate and control.
It feels like 170 million Americans were gaslit and abused today.
It’s a gross feeling and I don’t like it.
Let’s be clear: the whole thing is a con. TikTok could’ve kept the app rolling on Sunday but by shutting down & mentioning Trump, he gets to be the savior. One of many examples of companies & billionaires bowing down.
It’s BS. But it’s also the reality. Let’s not give Trump anymore opportunities 👍🏾
Don't let Donald Trump extending the TikTok ban distract you from the fact that his Administration is about to conduct mass deportations across America in a matter of days.

19.01.2025 14:13 — 👍 800 🔁 90 💬 105 📌 20Trump originally called for a ban on TikTok. Now, he’s counting on people’s ignorance to claim he’ll be its savior. When people know the facts it’s less easy to manipulate them.
19.01.2025 14:20 — 👍 3101 🔁 928 💬 180 📌 50It's BS that TikTok was shut down. I say that as someone who only used it infrequently. I write a lot about national security—and found the national security arguments against TikTok to be surprisingly weak. Terms of service and explicit waivers could've been used to inform users of their situation.

Not AR-15’s. Not carcinogenic additives. Not Child Corn.
Those apps are “more dangerous” according to the U.S. government.
And they’re right.
They SHOULD be afraid of The People.
Everyone in America receiving this message on TikTok today, please do not panic.
It’s all political theater. It’s NONSENSE.
They’re doing it so that Trump can be well received on his first day by “saving” it.
Trump isn’t “saving TikTok”…
…TikTok is saving Trump.
