I got to talk to @lgaustindavis.bsky.social at @statesforum.bsky.social last week about why state-level power is more important than ever—and the ideas he’s prioritized in Pennsylvania that can be modeled elsewhere around the country.
He’s a bright rising star we should all be paying attention to.

Get this- While Republican politicians in the House cheer the Trump/Musk cuts to things like farm assistance, they’re asking for BIGGER budgets for themselves!
They want to waste *more* money on political stunt hearings to get themselves attention and hiring more GOP political operatives
Unreal

A great example of Elon’s DOGE work making the fed govt work worse, not better, for people is trying to end the free file tax return system
It helps Americans avoid shelling out $ to TurboTax or H&R Block to simply file their taxes. It’s an emblem of govt actually making things easier for people.

I still can’t get over the fact that, during the very days Trump was ranting about only having qualified people in key jobs, it was revealed that he and Elon Musk put a 2024 high school graduate at least partially in charge of the federal workforce
