In the wake of a flood of DOGE directives, Executive Orders, and memos, the pace of changes to the federal workplace has been difficult to record & understand. That’s why we built a tool to track changes, help us advocate for, rebuild, & revitalize the civil service. https://civilservicearchive.org/

Thank you @pfparks.bsky.social for being a staunch defender of emergency medicine!
Got my day planned!
Got myself a personalized signed copy of this book by an amazing author I admire and respect - Dr. Brian Goldman.
Nothing like a good book, warm coffee, raging fire, and the day off!!!

Thanks @casinoshiftmd.bsky.social

Blatant oligarch cynicism: "According to an internal Meta document, the company may launch the product “during a dynamic political environment where many civil society groups that we would expect to attack us would have their resources focused on other concerns.” "

The heads of Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, and Tesla all joined Trump at his inauguration.

Since then, largely thanks to Trump's Big Ugly Bill, their companies have reaped $51B in federal tax breaks — paid for by huge cuts to our social safety net.

This is what oligarchy looks like.

This is nuts. Famous and prestigious program. So toxic that it’s now a conservative goal to gut the humanities and universities generally while shoving AI everywhere
Devastated to learn that Univ of Texas at Austin is closing the American Studies dept. The years I spent there earning my PhD were formative, making me the teacher, thinker, and writer I am today. I've passed on what I learned at UT to thousands of students over the past 20 years. Just awful.

“Nobody wants these ding dongs in our fucking city.”

Nate Pischke has found a uniquely Minnesotan way to protest the ICE surge in Minneapolis, using his platform as a fishing influencer to call attention to what he describes as a federal siege of his hometown.

To put this in perspective, the federal government spends *a combined* $33 billion each year on Title I (for low income families) and IDEA (for special needs students).
Breaking news: ICE expects to spend $38.3 billion on its plan to acquire warehouses across the U.S. and retrofit them into immigrant detention centers that can hold tens of thousands of people, according to agency documents.

Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.
