“Why doesn’t the White House press room yell at Trump when he calls their colleagues names” have you looked recently at the roster of journalists with White House credentials. It’s like The Gateway Pundit and Jack Posobiec

A big problem in urbanism: getting enough family-sized apartments built in dense areas. Without them, people come when they're young & then flee to the suburbs when they have a family.

Being among the first interrogated and ultimately fired by DOGE, I certainly felt we were facing the business end of a right-wing conspiracy theory 🧵
DOGE was not a money-saving effort. It was an effort to chase down and prove right-wing conspiracy theories. They went after USAID to prove conspiracy theories about foreign aid. Then they went after SSA to, again, pursue conspiracy theories about Dems paying "illegals" to vote. 1/2
All DOGE accomplished was purging critical government staff, handing private data to outsiders, and sentencing thousands in developing countries to death by gutting USAID.
I don’t say this lightly: if there were any justice in this world, the people responsible for this devastation would be in jail

Nice to hear a leader valuing human art and artists instead of asking AI to make a video where he literally shits on us from a jet. I don’t mean to be controversial but I think this is better.
New York City helped my mother become the artist she is today. The next generation deserves a City Hall that lifts up tomorrow's artists as well.

It’s crazy to have SIX dedicated security lines at LaGuardia airport just for Clear & give them priority at the THREE general boarding lanes. This is a tax-payer funded airport that seems to be trying to force people to give their biometric info over to a private company or get squeezed & squeezed.

Everybody involved will need to go to prison and if democrats in congress don’t have the stomach for punishing these people they should just resign now.
DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

Beth Macy never thought she would run for Congress. But she knows democracy is on the line and couldn't resist the pleas of those who believe she's the only candidate who can beat the awful Ben Cline.
And if she flips this red seat in western Virginia, no more Speaker Johnson.
