Mostly, I want democracy.

Baby Platypuses to cleanse the timeline

BREAKING: The ACLU says the Trump administration has deported three U.S. citizen children.

“How much injustice will Americans take? Has the arrest of a judge crossed a line you cannot tolerate? How about the taking of three small American children out of the country in the middle of the night without due process? Have we crossed the Rubicon yet?” open.substack.com/pub/america/...

Saw this coming a mile away.

from today's post — it seems incredible that I even have to write something as obvious as this, but welcome to Donny Convict's America in the year 2025. thanks for reading! link to the whole ball of wax is here: bit.ly/42ooYzF (longer excerpt in the alt text)

As we’ve warned before, the Trump administration has subjected around 80 staffers to lie detector tests. America, please understand—this is not normal.

Bought myself a new to me car today. Not sure what the next few years will hold so I am enjoying life and getting what I want while I can.

I wish we would just hurry up and get to the horrible part that finally turns this crap around. This waiting for it to get bad enough is horrible.

I just finished making this sweater. The weather should warm right up now.

Scary crap just keeps coming.

They are erasing the dead next they will erase the living.

I would love to see more of this.

FACT CHECK: TRUE

The FAA’s Troubles Are More Serious Than You Know The agency responsible for air safety is facing deep cuts and interference by Elon Musk.

The rumors are true: The proposed SAVE Act, now considered a priority for Republicans in the House, will make it harder, if not practically impossible, for millions of women to vote.

These will brighten your day.

Get him!

I can’t remember where I read this, but it’s important: Why is it that when people think about traveling to the past, they worry about doing something small that will drastically change the present, but no one in the present thinks that doing something small today can drastically change the future?

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

I’m begging Democrats to stop talking about tax breaks for billionaires and the price of eggs! They are firing Air Traffic Controllers, stranding Americans in hostile countries, and getting ready to download our data from the IRS. No one is sitting around thinking “I’m worried about the deficit!”

If this gets spread far and wide enough it will cause the biggest temperature tantrum you have ever seen. The best temper tantrum.

Government agencies that cure cancer and feed children aren’t getting paid, but don’t worry, the DOGE boys are making bank.

I think our democracy died today but no worries the super bowl will go on.

Stay alert.

Been an ass from the beginning.

Making sure federal government employees are tracking this court hearing that's happening today at 1pm ET. www.npr.org/2025/02/06/n...

Love her.

This was the best news today.

Mr King and his Queen...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

That is a scary thought.

Government employees: please download your performance reviews/personnel files. Word is that the system will be going offline tomorrow to possible amend those performance reviews for justification of firings. Source: American Federation of Govt Employees. *Please share to protect fed workers*

Please, everyone, drop what you’re doing and read this:

Seeing lots of people here looking for documents related to the OMB/Executive order funds freeze. All of the key docs -- the lawsuit, OMB memos, court orders, etc. are in the story below. Democracy Docket always provides free links to underlying court docs. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This won't be bad at all.

Today marks National Freedom Day, commemorating President Lincoln’s signing of the 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery in the U.S.

This can't be good.

Want to call your senators but don't know what to say? Celeste always has you covered.

Back in the 90's there was a popular bracelet that read WWJD. Some need to revisit that. Feed the hungry. Clothe the poor. Take care of widows and children. Something about caring for foreigners. At least that's what I learned. What Would Jesus Do

We need to be a nation full of non rule followers.

Just a big bully.

The most common question I receive is how everyday citizens can help in the fight for democracy. My advice, take the first step, start with something small and see what works for you. Here are ten things all of us can do. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/10-t...

May your name and skin be white enough to avoid detention centers. Fighting back any way I can.
