Thou shalt not claim to be improving efficiency when all you do is fire people and then beg them to come back.
Well said!
"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."
A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.”

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.
Thank you for making this so easy!
Math is hard
Days in office: 30. Days spent golfing: 9. Time spent golfing: 30%.
Another day (not) at the office.
We’ve had checks & balances & separation of powers embedded into the founding of our national govt specifically because the Framers anticipated that some day an executive might come along like Trump. For over 2 centuries we have also had judicial review. It’s all under siege now.
Hi all, We’re still here at OPM.
We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building.
Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.
Courage begets courage.
Pin this, save it, we’ll need it.

I’m so sorry. I have no connection to the area, but I’ve been listening to this on my scanner app all night. Can’t imagine how tired and cold and disheartened everyone must be.

Melania’s outfit is giving off Dick Tracy vibes, like she’s here to solve the mystery of how her husband actually became president again #inaugurationday
Is the inauguration normally this religious? I genuinely can’t remember. I know there have always been prayers, but this feels more like a church service with an inauguration thrown in.
I usually say "money buys margin," which is to say, if shit happens, you don't have to scramble to deal with it. When my cat had a urinary tract infection two weeks ago that could have killed him, I didn't have to choose between him and an electric bill, or groceries. That's margin.

The TikTok shutdown was a political stunt manufactured to boost Donald Trump’s popularity.
It did not work. Many on TikTok are now turning on Trump and TikTok leadership.
Same. It’s like a small rock in my shoe.
That’s a great question. I originally assumed it was a time related thing – like, they put the Trump message up first, but then thought better of it and then modified it. But when I tried to open the app this morning, I saw the Trump message again!
