We are in a war on knowledge, a war on facts, and a war on truth. The atrocious sacking of the 11th Archivist of the United States, Colleen Shogan (which she announced on her LinkedIn account last night) heralds a new era of burning of the books. www.linkedin.com/posts/activi...

I am very tired, but wrote this, quickly, to capture what I could since we live in the days of media erasure. Tonight there was a #protest at the #treasury and most #news did not see fit to cover it while it unfolded. I captured posts, video, and quotes as I could--I linked to @indivisible.org

Hey Elon, get your hands off of our money.

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines.

The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds.

It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

Putin is full out celebrating our idiocy.

This is how you do it.

Thank you @sicbjournals.bsky.social

“Elon Musk has got to go!”

Thank you to all of the Indivisibles from across New Jersey who visited Sen. @corybooker.com’s office earlier today.

Members of Congress have just been denied entrance to the Treasury building. The American people deserve to know what President Musk is doing with our money. We’re rallying with @moveon.org — follow along live.

Senator Raphael Warnock ahead of the vote on RFK Jr. for HHS Secretary:

"I simply do not trust him to oversee the CDC. He's unqualified, and I dare say that everybody here knows it."

BOOM!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is so good.

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: He choked.

The market started to tank, and suddenly, he said, “Oh, didn’t you guys already have a plan to deal with the border back in December? I love that—I’ll take that.”

This is Mr. Art of the Deal.

the professor in my real estate law class had to use the wayback machine for HUD pages on disability accommodations in housing for this week's unit on fair housing. grim.

Consider this: what kind of young law school graduate would want to become an Assistant U.S. Attorney in this Justice Dep’t? Will smart, hard working, ethical young lawyers want to join?
Probably not.
What impact will that have, over time, on the quality of justice? Significant.

Trump just plunged the country into chaos, illegally freezing aid to millions—Medicaid portals went down in all 50 states. Meanwhile, Kristi Noem is cosplaying as ICE, Milley is under attack, and Caroline Kennedy torches RFK Jr. Today’s insanity, all in one place:

"I'm gonna have to check back on whether we shut down 11% of the federal budget and health insurance for poor families" is next level incompetence

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service.

“Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you.

Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.
