Five minutes into Andor S2 and it felt like the show I need right now. How the Rebellion unites and gets its shit together is the key Star wars story not fully told yet. The metaphors feel less metaphorical every day.

They don’t care.

They don’t care that the Supreme Court ruled 9-0 to bring an innocent man home to his family.

They don’t care.

They think it’s funny.

According to IRS estimates, the internal sabotage by DOGE has already cost the U.S. Treasury more than $500 billion in revenues that otherwise would have been raised by April 15th. But it doesn’t stop there. DOGE is also in the process of closing down the Tax Division at the Department of Justice.

Reminder: Tariffs aren't paid by other countries.

They're eventually paid by us at the check out line.

And they're regressive — taking a higher percentage out of the paychecks of working people than out of the wealthy.

It's quite a thing for the US to be disappearing post-graduate students off the strets of Boston.

Grim times.
Disappeared Tufts Human Dev. PhD student Rumesya Ozturk is also a graduate of Teachers College - she’s a dev. psychologist studying children’s media & prosocial development. She also bakes without recipes and binge-watches cartoons. She is our colleague & she was abducted on the street w/ our tax $.

30 min of Peter Dutton’s budget reply and no plan for wages or to support wage rises. You can’t address cost of living without a plan for wages. His only policy is cutting rights, jobs and a vision for young ppl to get extra shifts at the pub servicing business ppl lunches

BREAKING: Senate just UNANIMOUSLY restored $1.1 billion for DC local govt that was eliminated

Why?

Because Senators of BOTH parties work in DC - and most have homes there - and none of them want to be in a hellhole

Now - try applying that same logic to THE REST OF THE COUNTRY
