I love all things related to DC and New Orleans. Chattanooga living. Always organizing for economic justice. Supporting campaigns scale with O2O.

I never want to see journalists go through what is happening at the Washington Post. Consider this — if it wasn’t for the Post, Dan Snyder would still own the #Commanders

[Peter Baker @peterbakernyt]

Two of the strongest parts of the @washingtonpost are its international and sports coverage. They have amazing must-read writers. If they are gutted by Bezos's publisher, it would be one of the most self-destructive acts in American journalism in years. Praying it's not true.

This isn’t an unfortunate result.
This was the plan.

DOGE was a robbery by the rich, for the rich, in plain sight.

Reminder that Trump has

...gutted IRS enforcement, enabling wealthy tax cheats

...tried to destroy CFPB that protects consumers from financial scams

...demoted/fired more than 20 Inspectors General

...pardoned/commuted sentences at least 68 fraudsters

That being said, if WaPo’s in a rebuild I can promise you one thing after 10-plus years here: Plenty of talent still on the roster, and everyone on that roster plays to win.

@BMitchandFinlay @BMITCHLIVE30 They’re only 2nd because Ted tried to literally move his teams out of DC and has no plan for long term winning with the Wiz

🚨 Alligator Alcatraz was built in 8 days.

Eight days to turn a swamp into a militarized prison camp, barbed wire, floodlights, surveillance towers, all funded by the federal government without a single budget hearing.

So the next time they say they “can’t” house the homeless, feed starving families, or provide basic healthcare?

Understand this:

They can. They just won’t.

@BenStandig Sorry to hear, I’ve loved reading your coverage. Huge loss for @TheAthletic

Last year, New Mexico became the first state in the U.S. to offer free child care to a majority of families. It's been a huge success. #DayWithoutChildCare

[Julie O'Donoghue @JSODonoghue]

In my 12 years covering the Louisiana Legislature, this group of people rallying against cuts for child care assistance is the largest I've ever seen on the Capitol steps during session. #lalege

The rain broke for us to get loud on the Capitol steps! #DayWithoutChildcare
