    I&amp;#39;m looking for new opportunities as an engineering leader—director or senior manager (in this role, I am technical but any code I author is a bonus instead of an expectation). I have ~15 years managing remote teams and prefer remote-first companies. 14/10 employees agree I make a great boss!

    Since this has not been very clear and misrepresented: this big ugly stupid bill doesn&amp;#39;t include much in the way of *new* tax cuts. It does have no tax on tips and overtime, and a small amount adjustment for seniors. But it&amp;#39;s mostly an extension of Trump&amp;#39;s 2017 tax cut (TCJA).

    Is there anything more American than Buc-ee&amp;#39;s latest store invoking an unnecessary reference by the WaPo editors to the Mason-Dixon line? 🤦‍♂️ I think not. Welcome to Team Buc-ee 🦫 Virginia! Next time I&amp;#39;m driving I-81 I&amp;#39;ll be sure to stop in. Happy Independence Day, y&amp;#39;all. 🇺🇸🤠 https://wapo.st/4nz0IDc

    We&amp;#39;re back to tariffs because Trump doesn&amp;#39;t understand trade and thinks this is how other countries will pay for the ballooning debt approved by his big blunder bill. Tariffs are a tax and these are unconstitutional under article I, section 8; it&amp;#39;s a power reserved for Congress.

    It&amp;#39;s times like this that we need public media more than ever. If you can afford it, please consider a monthly donation to support your local NPR and PBS stations and/or NPR and PBS overall.

    If Trump would stop fucking around with tariffs, the fed would probably have lowered interest rates already. Trump is causing stagflation.

    #NeverForget: Trump is in the Epstein files. Tariffs are unconstitutional and inflationary. Trump&amp;#39;s economy is already in a self-inflicted recession. Trump is an insurrectionist, a scam artist, and a convicted felon. Stay on message. Everything else is noise and distraction.
