What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

11 MILLION PEOPLE!! 💥💥💥 Are we nearing the magic 3.5%?? Never forget….WE hold the power. #nokings

Trump did this!🤷‍♂️😖

👍🎯

Congratulations, Australia! Well done! 👏 🇦🇺 #Australianelection #Australia #Albanesewins

It’s going to take all hands on deck to save our country so how about dispensing with the blame and welcome everyone into this cause?

Shrink the govt by firing people, hire contractors (privatization) who cost more, aren’t accountable to taxpayers, but aren’t on your payroll. Pay more $ long-term, but make it look like you’re shrinking gov’t. Stupid, inefficient, dishonest. apnews.com/article/fda-...

On point 🎯 @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

The head of our country’s government is in the early stages of consolidating total power. We must of course reject this, but that is not enough. We have to respond by creating a different and better kind of American politics than we have seen before.

He really can’t look anybody in the eye. 😳😆

Who has a lot of money they want to give away, to fund me doing independent history and survey research projects? 😬 I have so many interesting and useful ideas but this desk job is getting in my way…

Charlottesville heads up

Courts willing to follow the Constitution and the law are the only things standing between us and Stephen Miller’s dystopia right now. And he isn’t happy about it.

People are taking things into their own hands

We will not be distracted. We will not be discouraged. We’ve got our eyes on the prize. And we will build the prosperous, free nation for all that we deserve. The time to organize is now. OcasioCortez.com

Something special is happening, people. Ignore it or downplay it at your own peril…

Tesla stock is down 34% since Jan 1st. 😏

Trump just revoked my security clearance… one small problem: I haven’t had one in years. 😂 This isn’t about security—it’s about his fragile ego and petty revenge. My latest piece on Trump’s obsession with punishing his critics adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/trumps-lat...

Welp, there goes the US defense industry.

Local reporting is one of the few ways we will know when immigration concentration camps come to New Mexico. Here is a Starter Pack to getting you connected to local journalists & media outlets here on Blue Sky. If I have missed anyone let me know and I'll get them added go.bsky.app/6s2RYca

That’s right. 🇺🇦

Welp, “Five bullets” 2.0 is going about as well as can be expected. Some can’t send it encrypted while some can. Folks from Commerce are getting the request email from Pete Hegseth at DoD. And someone had their personal health info sent to 15,000 people. ACES!

HERO vs ZERO I'm in a state of shock & still trying to process yesterday's shameful, traitorous debacle in the WH: A DAY THAT WILL LIVE IN INFAMY. Our standing in the world has plummeted overnight, but the repercussions will be felt forevermore. #SlavaUkraini🇺🇦 #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

No matter what happens tonight, the sun will rise tomorrow.
