What happened in Frederick should concern every Marylander.

We stand with immigrant communities impacted by ICE enforcement and those injured Sept. 4. Solidarity means following the guidance of impacted communities, showing up where needed & pushing for systemic change.

According to the NYT, $9.5 BILLION was spent paying federal employees not to work.

Meanwhile, most of our colleagues on admin leave would rather be WORKING. 🙄

“Government efficiency,” apparently.

Goodnight to everyone except the MAGAts who thought this math was mathing. 😑🌙

⚠️ "Agencies spent $9.5 billion on salary costs for this leave in 2025, a sixfold increase from 2023. Most of this growth came from the deferred resignation program." ⚠️

$9.5 BILLION in taxpayer dollars spent on admin leave because of DOGE forcing feds out. Their fuckery has cost our country dearly.
