Did I mention Rachel Robinson is as much of a legend as Jackie Robinson? ☺️
Did you know that Jackie's beloved wife, Rachel Robinson, is still living? When Jackie retired, Rachel returned to nursing school and received her Master's from NYU. She also chaired the Jackie Robinson Development Corp, which built low-income housing in the greater New York area. #JackieRobinsonDay

It's Jackie Robinson Day! A day that, sitting at the intersection of baseball and human rights, allows me to celebrate an incredible individual and athlete and activist -- and encourage people to learn more about him -- while also lamenting just how much farther we have to go.

If this happens - and if Musk et al get control of BLS - then all economic bets are off.
I can’t say it any more plainly than that.

NEWS: Sources tell me that DOGE is setting its sights on the Department of Labor next. DOL workers have been ordered to give DOGE access to whatever they ask for—or risk termination.
“We’re supposed to stop everything we’re doing and do whatever the DOGE kids ask… It feels dirty and illegal.”

Musk thinks it’s a flex when he & his people sleep in the office because he has contempt for workers. He thinks he’s showing us normals what “working hard”looks like.
It’s especially stupid when he could rent an entire floor or two of the best, most comfortable hotel in DC for his team.

Like he did at Twitter and other companies, Musk is sleeping at DOGE offices and so are some of his top lieutenants.

Has congress passed a law superseding or eliminating the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961?
Has the Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional?
Then why are journalists reporting that Trump and Musk are "shutting down" USAID. They are not authorized to do so.
