- Reposted by The Dapper DinerThe IRS has a long history of keeping tax information confidential. But a new data-sharing agreement with ICE breaks that precedence and betrays the trust of immigrant communities in ways that could bear consequences for decades.

- Reposted by The Dapper DinerThe new Pope didn't tweet once in 2024. In 2025, he's posted 5 times, in which he: - Criticized JD Vance's views on Catholicism and Jesus - Posted an article opposing Trump's immigration policies - Retweeted twice about the Pope's health - Retweeted a criticism of Trump & Bukele's laughter at KAG.
- HBO is 100% making a show called "The American Pope," and we can only hope it's not a drama, but a Veep like comedy.
- Trump will take credit for this, and then the new Pope will slam him and Vance. But also his age is *nice*

- Reposted by The Dapper DinerInteresting piece which reveals a lot of the tech bro ignorance of government: DOGEr comes in, expects to find lots of inefficiency, is at least willing to acknowledge he was wrong unlike the hard core ideologues.
- So, I had an interesting conversation last week. For @fastcompany.com, I spoke with Sahil Lavingia, the founder of Gumroad, on his decision to work at the VA, a role he has thanks to DOGE. He was remarkably transparent. www.fastcompany.com/91330297/dog... (Gift link)
