Did not manage to sleep at all last night, and started cooking (well, baking) around 8 am. Served dinner at 4, just on time for the estimate. In-laws and a friend said they enjoyed it, so yay!

SCOOP—In August, nearly 200 current/former FEMA staffers published the Katrina Declaration, a whistleblower letter detailing all the dangers posed by current leadership.

All current employees were put on indefinite leave, and now I've learned one has been fired in violation of federal protections:
FEMA employee terminated for signing whistleblower letter
It appears to be a major violation of federal whistleblower protections and constitutional rights.

This kind of work is desperately needed in the media. Every story is treated as if it’s each it’s own thing. Trump did this in February, Trump did a totally separate thing in March, etc. It keeps the reader from noticing the obvious pattern of behavior which should be making other stories.

WA AG Nick Brown is suing HUD over changes to its homeless housing grant program that could put thousands of currently housed people on the street in the Seattle area alone. The changes eliminate most funding for permanent housing and impose right-wing ideological requirements on programs.

Mark Kelly: "I said something that was pretty simple and non-controversial, and that was that members of the military should follow the law. In response to that, Trump said I should be executed, I should be hanged ... it says a lot more about him than it says about me. I'm not going to be silenced."

the only thing musk should be remembered for
Difficult to overstate how profound a failure DOGE was. Spending in FY2025 was not only than in FY2024 – but higher than it was projected to be when Trump first took office.*

The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

Do YOU know what your Republican Member of Congress means when they say things like "high-risk pools?"

It means they want to go back to when people with pre-existing conditions like cancer could be denied coverage.

well, I read it, and the salient, non-gross part is Lizza alleging, midsentence and without elaboration, that Nuzzi ran numerous “catch-and-kill operations” on RFK’s behalf, which would give her a role in both his appointment and the untold preventable deaths he has abetted in office. Cool.

Just remembering how one of the most important and widely read and dropped-with-maximally-damaging-timing "Biden is old and senile" pieces was reported by Nuzzi. It makes you think!

📱 Using your #RightToRecord!

In the U.S.– no matter what your immigration status is– you have the right to record immigration enforcement agents. This is a powerful tool for exposing their tactics, combatting abuse, and fighting detention.

If you start by saying how many people you are going to arrest, the entire operation should be enjoined. That’s not how anything should work.
