I grew up in Jersey and figured I'd reach out. #newjersey get out and vote for @mikiesherrill.bsky.social for governor. For me it boils down to a great candidate who also isn't going to bow to Trump, allow him to turn our nation into his personal fiefdom and flush our democracy down the toilet.

Is #Hegseth recalling all the generals for a mass firing or replacing with Trump loyalists? Will #Trump require an oath of loyalty? Is this a staging for a mass-casualty event to give the administration an excuse to grab total power? Will they try to sell a dystopian world view?

What happens if the USD loses its status as the world's dominant trade currency? Could countries shift to the euro, yuan or another? How would that affect the USA economy and our influence in the world - beyond the current chaos?

More accurate, fewer words;
"There are plenty of contractors going under".
A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary.
PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.
