DOING WHAT I CAN to clear this mess up!
- Reposted by Susan Z WitterA briefing on offside for my colleagues playing in the Congressional Soccer Match tonight. You’re welcome!
- Reposted by Susan Z WitterMillions of kids rely on the free and reduced-price lunches they get at school every day—and when school goes on break, they go hungry. I introduced a new bill to fix this by expanding Summer EBT to cover school breaks. In the richest country on earth, NO kid should go hungry.
- Reposted by Susan Z WitterA 25-year-old DOGE bro at the CFPB held $715,000 in stocks that ethics lawyers told him he wasn’t allowed to own while working there — then DOGE fired those ethics lawyers. This is corruption. Always call it out.
- Reposted by Susan Z Witterfrom the article: "We are the federal law,” Trump spluttered, adding “you better do it because you're not going to get any federal funding at all if you don't.” “We'll see you in court,” Mills replied. “Good, I'll see you in court. I look forward to that. That should be a real easy one,” he raged.
- Reposted by Susan Z WitterFacts are the enemy for Trump and so the administration is devoting as much time to silencing or coopting and distorting all sources of facts that might undermine their objectives. It's an information war, @jilldlawrence.bsky.social persuasively writes, and we are the victims.
- Federal data is an invaluable national asset and economy driver. But for Trump & Co., it's "woke" and must disappear, or it's personal, private, and perfect for weaponization against people and groups they don't like. My latest at @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/donald-tru...
