Holy shit. If you don’t think they won’t do this to a citizen soon you’re delusional.
It sure looks like they’re going all in on the “the executive branch can ignore court orders if it thinks the court lacks jurisdiction” thing

As an American living in the UK, I wonder if most Americans realize just how much Trump has irrevocably torched opinions of the US. People are afraid to visit, see the country increasingly as an adversary, and that’s *before* the tariffs. This is doing long term damage—and that’s in our closest ally

My kid has a bleeding disorder and we just received an email from the National Bleeding Disorders Foundation that yesterday "nearly all staff within the CDC’s Division of Blood Disorders and Public Health Genomics" will be fired, so fuck you, RFK Jr, and all the senators who approved his nomination.

Trump campaigned on his unhinged plan to impose tariffs on the entire world and Corporate America could have made it clear that this would have devastating consequences for consumers and the economy but instead they just assumed that Trump would not follow through and supported Trump

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.
18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.
We made this website to tell our story:
