The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general.

If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

When you solve for the wrong problem, not only do you not get the solution, you can cause harm. The President wasted water that was being saved for farmers for a PR stunt.

This was harmful, ludicrous, and solved nothing.

In 2004, I interviewed for a teaching position. The principal asked me how many kids I had. I answered. He asked if I was planning to have more —said he couldn’t afford to have another teacher out on maternity leave.

This is why women need protections, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Hey Bezos and Musk.

I can still work tomorrow, despite being in a winter vortex and everything being shutdown including schools.

Because I can work remotely.

Tell me again why remote work is bad and ruins productivity?

Food delivery. Travel websites. Concert tickets.
 
When companies charge hidden fees at checkout, it can cost families thousands of dollars a year.
 
Starting tomorrow, those mysterious fees are banned in Minnesota.

We’ve strengthened background checks and passed a red flag law to keep guns out of the wrong hands.

Tomorrow, our law banning deadly binary gun triggers goes into effect.

We’re not hiding behind thoughts and prayers in Minnesota.

The world's richest man managed to take $190 million away from a *child cancer research center* with his posts yesterday. Funding now stripped in the new bill.

So if Devin Nunes had a cow account, why not his top aide, Kash Patel?

And could we please call it the Kash Cow?

I really think we need to focus on Charles Kushner. That seem sus, right? There will be life after Trump. If Charles were smart, he would decline.
Trump pardoned Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, Michael Flynn and Paul Manafort, as well as his son-in-law’s father, Charles Kushner—who he just appointed as US ambassador to France.

Sorry, but President Biden was right to pardon his son Hunter in order to protect him against Kash Patel’s weaponized FBI.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
