The IRS unit that audits ultrawealthy earners has lost 38% of its employees this year.
This will starve the government of revenue by making it easier for the rich to evade taxes — which the top 1% already do to the tune of $163B a year.

“Before he has even taken office, Trump has faced down two of the country’s most prominent newspapers, inducing them to back off longstanding, well-reasoned editorial opposition. That is terrifying.”

In that week when Musk bought Twitter & started bungling it, the possibility occurred to me that he'd bought it to end its usefulness as a pro-democracy tool. I'm so grateful for BlueSky & the fact that we're all here now & that it's increasing possible to get our news here too!

Translation for Donald Trump:
Just had a conversation with the President of Mexico who didn’t allow me to bully her, which left me confused about my charm…she pointed out that this is very bad…very bad for me if I do these tariffs…

So true.
I open my Bluesky feed and it is full of really cool people saying really smart things and being really passionate about really interesting stuff.
I like this version of social media, and the world.
Thanks, folks.

If execs at MSNBC were smart, they’d dump Morning Joe and Mika(who helped Donald Trump win in 2016) and are now kissing the ring. In their place should be Katie Phang and Willie Geist. Time for new blood and hosts that won’t be bamboozled. @katiephang.bsky.social
