Children. In jails.
If you have friends that are immigrants... send them some love. We are all silently falling apart inside.
Children are in prison. CHILDREN ARE IN PRISON.

Holy crap. The J. Peterman catalog of Seinfeld fame is a real thing?!!
The agency also wants to do more surveys on taxpayer preferences. It ran a survey in August and received over 50,000 responses, although those results βare not statistically representativeβ and therefore arenβt included in the report, the IRS said.
The IRS surveyed people about Direct File, and the results must have been absolutely *glowing* because they're now refusing to release the results. www.nextgov.com/digital-gove...
I couldn't bear eat pray love, but I was shocked to realize she wrote The Signature of All Things, which was fantastic.
Amazing. Yeah you'd see these pockets of "holy shit that was easy and just worked?!" services within govt. And most of that was USDS, 18f, and the various other "digital services" within agencies. It's just, the govt is huuuge and there was still plenty of work to do.
Apple's, by the way, is 72.
Hilarious because Airbnb has a net promoter score of 38!, and Direct File, built by US Digital Service which DOGE destroyed, has a net promoter score of 80+.
Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.
They make sure we have clean water.
They protect us from financial fraud.
They provide healthcare to our communities.
They make our government actually work for people.
Do not forget this.
His level of discombobulation does make it seem like a genuine mistake. I called someone honey the other day accidentally lol, but I am not a lawyer and she was not the judge.
This is your daily reminder that Republicans are planning to gut Medicaid, Medicare and SNAP to hand tax breaks to billionaires. Donβt get distracted. Help me spread the word.
I guess I am "who the hell is Sabrina Carpenter" years old. π€·π½
There is not enough popcorn on this planet.
That's a good metaphor because it definitely felt like drowning some times π
I was on the team. We knew the commissioner, Chris and Bridget and many others were protecting the work. It was tough work and an insane timeline but the team was fantastic and morale was sky high until the DOGE months.
Join us this Saturday, April 19, at Waterfront Park at 10AM for a day of conversation, community and resistance!
Around noon we will march to the Gaslamp District for a flyering action to raise awareness and foster community conversation.

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:

"The NIH... supported 99 percent of the drugs approved in the U.S. from 2010 to 2019. The agency has had a hand in βnearly all of our major medical breakthroughs over the past several decades,β
The NIH is in a struggle for its (and our) lives. This is existential to America:
Has anyone seen free mental health resources for feds? Other than EAP? I'm thinking like guidance on preserving your mental health through this traumatic time, maybe audio/video for stress mgmt.
I see my colleagues cracking under the strain and would love to share some resources.
For all of my fellow feds: I know you are exhausted, anxious, scared, confused, stressed and sad. Remember that you are the rock stars that keep our country running. All of this BA is by design & we CANNOT let them win. Hold the line. Step away when needed, but stay the course. ππ
Jeff bezos is salivating.
Nearly 10000 American citizens and veterans fired today.

Looks like. There's loads of them out there identical to that.
Yeah the "DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY FUNDS" over a post about IRC is really confusing.
You might want to make it clearer that you don't mean the IRC is not legitimate.
Direct File is live and processing tax returns!
One of the most rewarding things I have delivered. And some incredible updates this year - half the states in the nation are eligible, and we support some data import of information IRS already has!
