JUST IN: A federal judge in Washington state, who blocked Trump's executive order re: transgender health care, says it is unconstitutional in multiple ways, including usurping Congress' power of the purse storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Do you follow what this creator is saying? This is genius. Protests as distractions for bigger actions. Take note of this!

this @schatz.bsky.social quote in TIME >>>

I’ve been told some academic centers are telling their faculty not to speak up. In case anyone was wondering, injustice has never been overcome through silence. You can choose to speak up, or you can be complicit in the oppression. Everyone has a choice. May we all choose wisely.

The big takeaway here is that Reuters won this case against the AI company on grounds they violated fair use—the judge found the AI company was guilty because, in using copyrighted works to generate its output, it “meant to compete... by developing a market substitute.” Huge.

Let's all say it together! "Gulf of Mexico!" We're with you, @apnews.com! Stay strong! 💪🏼

If you're in DC tomorrow afternoon, pls celebrate my birthday by fighting for @noaa.gov at the Department of Commerce (not Silver Spring)! 💙🌊 www.mobilize.us/ccanactionfu...

CONSUMER SENTIMENT FALLS The University of Michigan consumer sentiment index experienced a notable fall to 67.8 in February amid fears over tariffs and inflation. Job growth also cooled last month, with just 143,000 jobs added.

Donald Trump is trying to block trillions of dollars in federal funds to Meals on Wheels, Medicaid, and other critical programs that keep us safe and healthy. If allowed to go into effect, this would wreak havoc across the country. Tell Congress: Trump cannot be allowed to defund our communities.

Find a protest near you. We can't promote wildlife and save what little is left without addressing the political situation we find ourselves in. The radical right must be stopped. Get involved Get in this fight www.mobilize.us/indivisible/

I shouldn’t laugh at this but I somehow needed to.

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more. - US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID - $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes. - Food stranded in Houston - Aid stopped in transit. The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

NPR Exclusive: Some companies have announced diversity rollbacks — but many more are deleting or softening language from their investor disclosures, an NPR analysis finds.

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

Omg! If you're not watching @maddow.msnbc.com, please tune in. Doge employee has links to Russia, which was given access to our air traffic controls/aviation. Don't fckn fly. Just drive or take a train.

Since major news networks dont want to talk about yesterdays protests across 50 states, heres a little reminder what a resistance looks like. What hope looks like #bluecrew #protests #resistance #50501movement #capital

It turns out the NY doc indicted for telemedicine abortion care in LA was once MY doctor. Hands down the best I have ever had - I broke down in tears on my 1st visit because I had never received care like that & didn't even know it was possible Pls support her if you can: www.theactgroup.org/donate

While some information has been restored, scientists are still alarmed over the removal of data. It's not clear what has changed, and some pages remain offline.

A new immigration bill passed in Florida eliminates in-state tuition for undocumented immigrants. Governor Ron DeSantis is expected to veto the measure based on other parts of the bill, but students are wary about future tuition hikes.

President Trump has wasted no time attacking our fundamental rights — and we've wasted no time taking action against his administration. Watch our recent town hall to learn more and find out how you can join the fight.

Breaking news: State attorneys general from California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Nevada, Vermont, and Wisconsin advise Trump's EO banning trans care is unlawful, hospitals should provide care. Big counter salvo!

I feel like we don't talk enough about how many lives have been saved by accurate, publicly available weather forecasts

Check this thread. This hearing is about getting it plain and clear to the American people that even former trump officials think that what's happening with the politicization and weaponization of science and technology is an absolutely terrible idea on every level.

“The targeted individuals were more than a dozen young assistant U.S. attorneys in the Washington, D.C., office…One of the fired attorneys is a veteran and at least two have wives who are pregnant—including one expected to give birth this month.” www.lawfaremedia.org/article/trum...

I want us to be inspired by my 6 Trojan Horse lists. Repeat offenders must be replaced. Some choices are worst than others and together they demonstrate 💙 who are actually 🔴 Locate them and start mobilizing local opposition to them open.substack.com/pub/stgael/p...

I am outside the US Treasury Department calling out Musk and Trump for their dangerous power grab. Unelected billionaires have no place in our government, and they sure as hell have no business with the Social Security and tax information of millions of Americans. youtube.com/live/sZXyEUF...

Will make video soon but if you haven’t download “5 Calls”!

"Stop the Coup!" Scene at Treasury.

Signs. Of. Life. Protest outside Treasury Dept. tonight.

This is an excellent summary of our situation, which is quite bad. It’s not just that they’re breaking laws. They’re breaking laws that are centrally important to our constitutional order and are constitutive of its identity. They are targeting the best parts of what democracy has built here.

Super important! Pls share Radley's post ⬇️ [Him, not me!] In normal times, violating federal court orders is a huge deal. If Repubs back Trump defying federal court orders, we need to know ASAP!

I don't know if anyone caught it during the Treasury rally today, but. Rep. McIver straight-up said that her Republican colleagues are leaving their phones off the hook because they don't want to hear from their constituents. THAT is what Dems should be preaching from every corner, every day.

Suggestion to Americans: If you used a current bank account with funds on a recent tax return, it may be wise to contact your bank and request a change. Account and routing numbers are accessible, and Elon Musk’s staff have access to this information. Stay safe and protect your assets.

Mass protests today. May there be many many more, larger, stronger. About everything. In solidarity with my fellow resistors Do something Don't just sit there Take to the streets As often as it takes www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

BREAKING: Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump administration from implementing anti-trans Trump orders that would stop trans-related medical care in federal prisons and lead to trans inmates’ transfers. This followed a hearing in DC earlier today. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Reminder to you that legal challenges are super SLOW. The damage will be done by the time law succeeds.

How are y'all dealing with the cognitive dissonance of much of your daily life continuing as normal right now even as really really really bad shit is happening in government (that will certainly have ripple effects that will reach us all)? Because I'm honestly feeling a little insane right now.

More of this www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Maybe the problem with our Congress is that there are too many lawyers who are professionally ethically bounded to decorum and tradition. Organized Conflict has never in history been solved using traditional law otherwise we wouldn’t have created the Nuremberg Trials out of thin air.

Something to note about the 50 state protest. Reach out in your community to likeminded and at bare minimum mobilize with them. We hungry but let’s not be dumb and reckless.

OH MY GOD DEMS STOP ASKING FOR MONEY FOR A SECOND AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS UNFOLDING EVEN AS WE SPEAK. Ahem.

Jasmine Crockett: "The problem is that Americans thought it was okay to take a full fledged criminal and make him the President of the US and then they want to act aghast when he does criminal things. Let me tell you, we have a thug in charge of the US and if we don't wake up we may not have a US"

So much of the arc of Donald Trump and Elon Musk is what happens when white collar crime isn’t taken seriously. They spent so much of their lives being shown—clearly—that they didn’t have to follow laws, that no jail would come, that by the time they overthrew the USG, they knew it wouldn’t matter.

Anti-ICE protesters are blocking both sides of the 101 Freeway near the Alameda Street exit in DTLA. The CHP has since closed that portion of the freeway.
