Russ Vought just said that firings have begun. OMB called them "substantial."

Our initial story is below — but we're very short on the details. Please reach out if you hear anything, I'm on Signal at annakramer.54

News: Bari Weiss just sent a memo to staffers at CBS News asking them to produce a memo explaining "how you spend your working hours—and ideally, what you've made (or are making) that you're most proud of."

One CBS News staffer puts it like this to me: "We just got Elon Musked."

The next couple questions are just as good with Simon tearing into Shapiro and holding fast:
SHAPIRO: You would rather put a gun in your mouth? SIMON: I mean, what you're saying to me, effectively, is there's no original way to do anything and... SHAPIRO: No. SIMON: Yes, you are. SHAPIRO: That seems like a kind of absolutist take. SIMON: Not only I think is it a fundamental violation of the integrity of writers and also of copyright to - you know, when I sold all the scripts I sold, you know, 150 to HBO and, you know, maybe another 50 to NBC, I didn't sell them so that they could be thrown into a computer with other people's and be used again by a corporation. So... SHAPIRO: So would you ever agree to a contract that saw any role for AI at all? SIMON: No. I would not.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I mean this sincerely: If the presence of the National Guard at Union Station is supposed to make it feel safer, they could patrol the dark parking lot at 10:30 at night instead of hanging out in front of the closed Starbucks or whatever.

Weaponized gratitude is a key tool in the abuser's toolkit. The goal is to convince the victim that they owe the abuser so much, they should feel guilty for wanting to complain.
Tweet from the VP: Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most. Yet she oozes with contempt. My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much happier person if you showed a little gratitude
