John Oliver does the best policy explainers. This is why I was excited to talk to Last Week Tonight's producers about the effects of Schedule F on government.

Watch the segment, and read more about this attack on public services:

I finally got to watch it yesterday and when schedule F came up, I had a feeling they might have talked to you! Such an important segment.

A question: why does no one refer to these plans to eradicate the civil service as “Tammany Hall gone national?” I didn’t understand exactly what Tammany Hall s when it came up in school (in the 1970’s) and in discourse, but I knew it meant corruption, and that corruption was bad.

Hey Don, I think I might boost your post to my audience using the official substack "Cross-Post" feature in the morning to get some more eyeballs on it if that's cool with you. Just wanted to give you a heads up. This is great.

The view from Canada: the American "Right" wing doesn't actually care what the American public wants -- they figure they can get away with ignoring such trivialities.. (To be fair, the Canadian "Right" wing is following a very similar path, even if not _quite_ as far along that path as in the USA)

Thank you for the excellent and terrifying explainer. I don't look forward to having to fight this 'illiberal technology' for the rest of my life as an American, but here we are.

Feel free to assume that I pitched the best jokes in this episode! (They did not, in fact, go with my suggestion that the Project 2025 team was was the AI response to the prompt “show me the most GOP staff ever”). donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-public...
