What are they trying to hide?

Hey… so this campfire you started, Mike.

Are we looking to make some S’mores or a forest fire?

Mike: Yes.

The woman in the blue jacket behind Raskin looks disgusted. I would be too.

Wait till you hear about the assault on the people of Maine by Donald Trump and the Social Security Administration

Raskin is my man, along with Cory Booker, of course!

It would ONLY be problematic if Dems did it.

marksmithresister.bsky.social•3 days ago

The reason for ducking the records-keeping laws is so that the executive branch of govt won't be held accountable for their actions by either the legislative or judicial branches of government.

So let's call it what it is. It's a coup d'etat.

Now do this with Homan in ICE!!!

Trump doesn’t care about the records. He would prefer those go away. And Republicans care about what their daddy cares about (ok gross). Keep sending the message that this is not ok, like at all

Avoiding FOIA requests is a key reason for using insecure messaging apps (and not copying the entire exchanges to government servers).
Wasn't that in the onboarding materials from Project2025?

roachmotel6.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yes it was in the on-boarding materials in project 2025. They need to make sure they don't have records of anything.

Waltz has to go.

“Accountability” is a term that doesn’t exist with this administration. It’s sad. It seems to be a moot point; like, nothing will come of this. Just more of the same.

Loving Dr. Hunt's careful language: "suggests a deviation from the rule of law".

They're all a bunch of degenerate DEVIANTS!

NBD. Nothing to see here. Just a wee fuck up. Too busy investigating the Kennedy assassination.

msmsfit2022.bsky.social•3 days ago

They don't want a paper trail in case of future prosecutions. They all learned to think like the main criminal.

bfgilme.bsky.social•3 days ago

The only government that they know can't get access to private messages is the US government. They are intentionally hiding their work from we the people who employ them.

They were taught to act criminal:

Self-deleting messages are a lot more convenient than trump having to eat torn up documents like the last time he was held the Oval Office.

msmsfit2022.bsky.social•3 days ago

Way more convenient 👍

Is Ms. Parker auditioning for Press Secretary?

Anyone know what platform was used to coordinate Jan 6th?

Keep this in the news as long as Rs did Benghazi! @raskin.house.gov @reptedlieu.bsky.social

go2guy.bsky.social•3 days ago

If this were ANY other administration, Waltz would be out on his ear if not arrested!

raventerp1.bsky.social•3 days ago

The Gmail is even worse.

jerseybuckeyes.bsky.social•3 days ago

We’ve known this for years. It is the media who bask in the scandal spotlight while the criminality goes unnoticed. #ZEROAccountability #ZEROConsequences

I’m ready to start a Jamie Raskin Fan club, 90’s style.

frankcoon3.bsky.social•3 days ago

And Gmail. WTF?

peggyorchids.bsky.social•2 days ago

The staff across his administration are avoiding all checks and balances including record keeping of all actions across all departments. Accountability is avoided as no records exist.

robsco69.bsky.social•3 days ago

DO NOT Let this be ignored by the trumpa-loompa.....
SHOVE THIS in it's FACE!!!!!!

chowdaddy.bsky.social•3 days ago

Gotta really appreciate Rep. Raskin...

birdiewny.bsky.social•3 days ago

Under normal circumstances, the level of ignorance demonstrated with the Signal texts would be shocking. Here, it’s just normalized stupidity that, sooner or later, will result in harmful consequences.

rhonnie-72.bsky.social•3 days ago

Keep after them Representative Raskin!

Is DOGE communicating via signal?

daylaborer.bsky.social•3 days ago

Ms Parker. 20 signal chats is more than “a mistake “

vthermit.bsky.social•3 days ago

Bombing civilians is kind of a scandal as well.

reparsons.bsky.social•3 days ago

It's in the Project 2025 playbook to use alternative communication methods to avoid accountability.

The Project 2025 coup is still on-going. Contact your Republican representatives and let them know this is unacceptable.
