  3. "Either way, you find very little #nonpartisan depiction of reality, in all its morally ambiguous verity. Instead you get camp: Ideologies plucked from their original formats — internet videos, fringe blogs, cabinet meetings — and flattened into #cosplay and puppetry. For #Hollywood, this is a useful way to flatter viewers, who get to feel above the fray. What’s lost, of course, is any kind of #enlightenment or ethical confrontation, as opposed to mere #voyeurism — any dream of seeing real murkiness, conflict or shades of gray existing within the narrative universe, or within a given character."

  4. More revolting, disgusting, unadulterated narcissistic behavior from u know who… his actual self is a hubristic parody

    #Trump unveiled a new “Trump class” of Navy battleships Monday, describing them as a superior war fighting vessel to replace an “old and tired & obsolete” US fleet.

  5. Public water should not be put up for sale, ever. I'm not confident about this coalition because words are important - their words sound like they are OK negotiating sales of public water - it sounds like covert greenwashing. We need degrowth of ecocide industries & watershed protection for ecological, environmental & human rights purposes - above all other purposes.
    Commodifying public water is not in the best interests of the public.

  6. Right now, #BritishColumbia has the lowest industrial #water rates in #Canada - effectively giving away one of our most vital #PublicResources to some of the world’s largest industries. Meanwhile, communities are left struggling to fund the response to worsening droughts, floods, wildfires, and drinking water crises.

    It doesn’t have to be this way.

    Bringing BC’s industrial water rates in line with other provinces is a fair, practical way to:

    Fund stronger watershed security
    Support sustainable economic growth.
    Keep communities safe and resilient to floods, fires, and water shortages.
    Safeguard BC jobs, grow food, and protect the economy — every industry depends on water.
    Do it all without costing taxpayers a dime.
    This is a simple, fair, and fiscally responsible solution that will build long-term watershed security across BC.

    Investing in #WatershedSecurity aligns with the values of a significant majority of voters, as 78% of British Columbians want to see major investments from the provincial government to protect freshwater in BC.

  7. #Trump's #OneBigBeautifulBill cuts federal #spending on #Medicaid & #AffordableCareAct marketplaces by ~$1 trillion over a decade, acc/to the #nonpartisan #CBO, threatening the physical & financial #health of tens of millions of #Americans.

    The bill, which the #Senate passed Tues, would reverse many of the health coverage gains of #Biden & #Obama, whose policies made it easier for millions of people to access #healthcare & reduced the US #uninsured rate to record lows.

  8. Even without this bill, the #debt has been expected to reach record levels in the coming decades, with the #nonpartisan #CBO estimating that the debt held by the public, now about the same size as the #economy, would grow to become roughly 56% larger than the economy by 2055. Making the 2017 #TaxCuts permanent could push the debt to become more than twice as large as the economy over the next 30 years, Ms. Riedl said.

  9. #Republicans even called for challenging, or firing, the #parliamentarian, [something #Democrats could never get away with] who has been on the job since 2012 as the #nonpartisan chief arbiter of the chamber’s historic & complicated rules.

    But #GOP leaders had already been struggling to rally support for the change. Several GOP senators warn it would harm rural #hospitals that depend on the funds. Hospital orgs have warned it could lead to hospital closures.

  10. #Republicans scrambled to respond, many politically attacking the #nonpartisan #parliamentarian, while #Democrats said it would be devastating to the #GOP package.

    Sen. #RonWyden, the top Democrat on the #Senate #Finance Committee, said the GOP proposal would have been as much as a $250 billion cut to the #healthcare program, “massive #Medicaid cuts that hurt #kids, #seniors, Americans with #disabilities & working families.”

  12. #Trump enjoys strong support among many active-duty service members & #veterans who appreciate his vocal backing [outwardly if not actual] & admire his unvarnished #bravado, according to polls & analysts. Yet some career officers said the president clearly does not understand the ethos of service or the #nonpartisan tradition of the American #ArmedForces.

  13. #Military members boo #Newsom, #Biden & the #press during #Trump speech

    Members of a crowd filled with members of the military & their families booed & jeered Trump’s political rivals & the press Tues at the president’s prompting during his address at #FortBragg in North Carolina.

    The response from attendees, most of whom were wearing military fatigues, was a jarring sight given the military’s history as a traditionally #nonpartisan entity.

    🧵Excerpts from a beautiful piece written in the NYT by David J. Garrow in 1994 on Souter’s remarkable contribution in Planned Parenthood v. Casey in which the #SupremeCourt upheld the right to #abortion as established by #RoeVWade:

  15. Such #CivilServants in #nonpartisan roles traditionally have had #JobProtections that shielded them from the political whims of whoever was in the White House.

    But #Trump & many of his backers have long believed the #ConspiracyTheories that a "deep state" of Washington bureaucrats was undercutting his agenda.

    Toward the end of his first term, Trump signed an EO establishing a #ScheduleF category for federal employees.

  17. …As the #Trump admin’s war on the federal bureaucracy throws key agencies into #chaos, CISA’s turmoil could have underappreciated consequences for #NationalSecurity & #economic prospects. The agency, part of #DHS, has steadily built a reputation as a #nonpartisan source of funding, guidance, & even direct defensive support for #cities, #businesses, & #nonprofits reeling from #cyberattacks.

  18. How long can #Singapore’s #NMP scheme stay relevant?
    🤔"Intro'ed in 1990 by then-PM Goh, e NMP platform was created to allow #nonelected MPs to provide #alternative #nonpartisan views.. scheme wasn't estab'ed to be a “talent pipeline” for #political parties.. “We must strengthen e NMP system to be the much-needed non-partisan ‘third side’ of the house to prevent the ills of #twoparty #systems tt we r seeing before our eyes in some mature #democracies” Anthea Ong" #ambition

  19. The #EPA plans to demote career employees who oversee scientific #research, the #enforcement of #pollution laws, #HazardousWaste cleanup & the agency’s HR dept & replace them w/ #political appointees.

    The move would give #Trump #loyalists more #influence over aspects of the agency that were traditionally led by #nonpartisan #experts who have served across Republican & Democratic admins.

  20. CW: PSA, nonpartisan, transnational politics

    For the record: If a politician (of any stripe) says anything like "I'll explain after the election", they are going to screw you over.

  21. Those of us in the USA need public access to a full and true #report, by a #nonpartisan #physician or nonpartisan #mental #healthcare provider, on the orange one's mental #health issues. And we need unbiased #analysis and #reporting from the nonpartisan #news #media.

  22. “We’re witnessing the dismembering of a core cadre of #nonpartisan, institutional experience that is invaluable to the #Justice Department’s mission, including that of protecting the #NationalSecurity of the #UnitedStates,” said David Laufman, a fmr snr #DOJ ofcl….

    If the reassignments are a way to remove career leadership, it’s “very concerning,” said a 2nd fmr snr DOJ ofcl, who noted that those being reassigned are some of DOJ’s most experienced & knowledgeable leaders.
