The legacy of DOGE is not that it failed. It's that it destroyed: 1. faith in real cost conscious governance 2. the careers of committed govt employees 3. scientific research and the biomedical breakthroughs that come with it 4. countless lives of the world's poorest

genuinely devastating. when asked me what my comms dreams were, my answer was always for teen vogue to cover our work at RO. it was an honor and a delight to have a well-funded, mainstream publication that took young people, women, and their politics seriously. love you guys.
STATEMENT: (1 of 2) We strongly condemn @CondeNast's consolidation plans for Teen Vogue, a move that is clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most. ...

Workers built DC and they make this city run. Today, we’re proud to announce that 4 major unions representing workers in food service and hospitality, public transit, and DC government have endorsed our campaign: @UHLocal25, @unitehere23, @ATULocal689, and @AFGE2725_NEWS ✊🏽🥳

Hannah Einbeinder on saying “Free Palestine” during her #Emmys acceptance speech: “It is my obligation as a Jewish person to distinguish Jews from the state of Israel because our religion and our culture is such an important and long-standing institution that is really separate to this sort of ethnonationalist state.”

This is why I believe so strongly in cities. Socialization is like a muscle, and living in a dense, walkable environment is like going to the gym every day.
i think having small friendly interactions with strangers is so important for humanity.

Aparna is truly one of the only people meeting the moment right now. Current electeds should take note.
There are two choices before us: collaboration or resistance. As neighbors are brutally attacked and separated from their families because of this administration, I choose resistance. Free DC.

Protests often get the attention, but D.C. residents have been engaging in smaller acts of resistance to Trump's federal surge into the city. They are recording ICE agents and calling in thousands of sightings to a tip line, helping scared families get kids to school, and more.

Appreciate the council members with a clear moral compass in this moment calling out the mayor’s complete betrayal of DC Home Rule as she celebrated and invited federal intrusion. Absolute betrayal. Where are the other council members?
