Non-Violent. Peaceful Protest.

But be vigilant.

dovewoman.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thanks for this post.

I’m worried there may be instigators planted this march. No one e expected the HandsOff turnout. Proud Boy/Maga type might try to cause problems.

womenwarriors.com•4 days ago

You are correct.
Instigators as part of creating a False Flag Event is always a possibility when dealing with Dictators, Dovewoman.

Vigilance is key.

dovewoman.bsky.social•4 days ago

It looks like today’s events went smoothly. So happy that so many participated and stayed safe also. Many people took their children and grandchildren so they could understand more about our beginnings…and the need to protect our country. I didn’t want a False Flag event around our kids!
My city!

stjeanne456.bsky.social•5 days ago

Why is it taking people so long to figure out that all DOGE wants to do is disappear POC and anyone who disagrees with the fuhrer?

steviez65.bsky.social•6 days ago

Nice! Now can they haul the DogeDouches before a judge and have them swear out under questioning what they've already done with the Social Security database info? For all we know it's already been put onto portable drives and selling that info will be their next planned job after Doge.

str8grandmother.bsky.social•5 days ago

Yes! They should have to testify under oath where the data was sent external to SSA. Is that called exfiltrated? It was a new word that the whistleblower from some agency I can't remember used. He was on Rachel the other night.

kmorrowleong.bsky.social•6 days ago

Too late. I’m sure of that.

lfglatz.bsky.social•5 days ago

DOGE has no reasonable basis.

jeanpauldelier.bsky.social•5 days ago

what about all the criminal access they've already had?

hopelaughlove.bsky.social•6 days ago

Why aren’t they all banned to go into any systems at all and arrested and dragged outta gov! Shameful unelected idiots controlling our gov while DC GOP have no damn balls and spines to stop this carnage!

str8grandmother.bsky.social•5 days ago

Except, isn't it too late? Didn't the Nerd Reich already access everything at Social Security?

windy-b.bsky.social•6 days ago

Thanks for the court update, Kyle. The damage has been done. Since this started, I've been very concerned. It seems they have root access & downloaded all of our sensitive data, not just NLRB, but SS, IRS, etc. SS site alone has been messed up since early March. So, this article didn't surprise me:

cekiritz.bsky.social•6 days ago

This is great legal action, but isn’t the horse already way out of the barn? That data is already in the hands of abusers. What egregious lapses made this exploitation possible? How to mitigate the damage?

bjmcgee.bsky.social•6 days ago

The horse already has 2 kids and a mortgage. I check my bank balance daily. I'm so afraid to lose the pennies I have. Our info is floating out there, just waiting to be pillaged. And, I'm not convinced that DOGE is the first one to do it.

johnrya.bsky.social•5 days ago

Everything Trump does is Illegal. Still betting when he goes in for his Colonoscopy and Vance Takes over while Trump is under anesthesia this Plan will unfold:
Vance will Pardon Trump of All Illegal Action prior to and during his Presidency. Trump will or already has Pardoned Vance for any action.

ksadylady.bsky.social•6 days ago

And what army do they have to enforce the ruling? Because Trump doesn't care.

rivergal4.bsky.social•5 days ago

Hasn’t everything already been uploaded via Starlink, meaning foreign actors have it? I guess folks will find out 100 years or more from now when the investigations are finally made public.

netbaby97.bsky.social•6 days ago

The courts can’t move fast enough. The data pirates at DOGE probably found a work around by now.

Our personally identifiable data is in Russia.

dovewoman.bsky.social•6 days ago

Sincere question: who is paying for all his court cases? I feel like he’s taking many cases to court that don’t have a snowballs chance in hell, just because he’s not having to pay. I assume it’s us taxpayers. If so, can he just run up the bill as much as he wants?

juniperbun.bsky.social•6 days ago

WE ARE, SUCH WASTE AND FRAUD CREATED INSTEAD OF FIXED

bbennettesq.bsky.social•6 days ago

We are. DOJ attorneys are paid for by us. Non profit attorneys fighting back paid for by us. 🤷‍♀️

sunflowermum.bsky.social•6 days ago

Probably yes!?

dovewoman.bsky.social•6 days ago

I thought so but wasn’t sure. Thx.

I resent us paying for his outrageous crap! Can he continue to keep going to court on his flimsy cases? Most don’t have a chance. Is there no oversight?

I’m furious about a possible $94M military parade. We need some laws for outrageous spending! Oversight???

dovewoman.bsky.social•6 days ago

sunflowermum.bsky.social•6 days ago

2/ Need some type of $$$ limits …no idea how. $3M a week to go home is horrible. I mentioned to acquaintance & she said “that’s his home”. I replied most don’t go home every single weekend in the excessive manner he does. His entourage is huge. Think they have to use 2nd aircraft for vehicles. /

dovewoman.bsky.social•6 days ago

3/ l really don’t know how to address this, but it needs done. He’s spending more to go to MAL than it would’ve taken to keep our National Parks funded! Maybe, don’t run for POTUS if you can’t stay in WH 60- 70% of weekends. ???

I apologize for my rant. This needed addressed after he left office.

dovewoman.bsky.social•6 days ago

When we flip some seats, we nerd a few common sense “guardrail” financial laws. No one thought we’d have a malignant character in control of our country. It was set up for 3 Equal branches. Founding Fathers didn’t expect one branch to roll over & give up their power. We need laws for limits!

corona-limes.bsky.social•5 days ago

I’m sure they already have the data.. they’ve been in there for weeks!

jamesw228.bsky.social•5 days ago

And this is why they want the career civil servants gone, they'll actually comply with these kinds of decisions, unlike the political appointees

deviant-loki.bsky.social•5 days ago

Kinda too late. Doge already has access; has already accessed the system; has already exfiltrated date and likely left themselves a backdoor or several.

colinmcgee.bsky.social•5 days ago

Too late. They've got all the data.

bombaycrone.bsky.social•5 days ago

That's great that the courts have finally caught up to the problem but the issue is that data has already been breached copied and is off site. Prove it otherwise. Elon Musk and his little 19-year-olds have already done the deed. Now what do we do?

vtgrower.bsky.social•5 days ago

Make sure you lock/freeze your 3 credit agencies at the very least.

bombaycrone.bsky.social•5 days ago

Very good advice! Thank you for reminding me.

geobern.bsky.social•6 days ago

Don't they already have our data? How will this change anything?

starfyre59.bsky.social•5 days ago

Good

kismet13.bsky.social•6 days ago

I fear he has already compromised all data from each agency. Most are interconnected. Now, who has access?

ALIEN ENEMIES ACT: The Trump administration filed an emergency motion to block Judge Boasberg’s initiation of contempt proceedings, saying his suggestion of forcing the administration to prosecute itself — or bring back deported Venezuelans — is unconstitutional.”

eridani24.bsky.social•6 days ago

No, they don't get to use the word unconstitutional in their own defense in court while hundreds of people are stuck in their concentration camp without due process. The fucking audacity...

energydragons.bsky.social•6 days ago

Ikr!?

energydragons.bsky.social•6 days ago

Bullshit it's unconstitutional. Are you fucking joking me Trump!? Are you really going to go there! Do we need to bring up every unconstitutional instance that you have been doing and stepping on the rule of law since day one!!?

ncallaway.bsky.social•6 days ago

That's wild. So, basically the assertion is that there *can never be* criminal contempt of court against a lawless executive branch? (I mean, they're sorta right, because the President can always pardon criminal contempt)

gamecat235.bsky.social•6 days ago

The only real functional difference would be official (disbarment, etc) follow through, and civil fallout (lawsuits, etc), in a contempt found but pardoned vs no contempt proceedings, right? Or is there anything else?

It’s not like 5A protection removal makes much difference in a contempt setting…

ncallaway.bsky.social•6 days ago

On the legal side, I'm not really sure. I'm not a lawyer, so I only know the basics of civil vs criminal contempt.

I will say, on the political side, I think there's quite a difference between Trump affirmatively pardoning criminal contempt, vs just the courts not allowing it to start

ncallaway.bsky.social•6 days ago

They're definitely making this argument because being found in contempt of court, and then pardoning that contempt would be a very rough political hit.

timothystamm101.bsky.social•5 days ago

Civil Contempt is not pardonable. It's punishment lasts until the contemnor complies with the order they were violating. That punishment is usually jail.

korkie.bsky.social•5 days ago

5A and 14A

gamecat235.bsky.social•5 days ago

I’m not sure 14A concerns exist with pardoned offenses, do they?

And without a contempt finding, there’s technically nothing to use as evidence *for* contempt-like actions.

Screenshot from https://www.justice.gov/pardon/frequently-asked-questions#:~:text=It%20does%20not%20signify%20innocence,stigma%20arising%20from%20the%20conviction.

korkie.bsky.social•5 days ago

14A deals with birthright citizenship and due process. I find it interesting we have 2 Amendments in the Constitution that insist on due process.

waynehedges.bsky.social•6 days ago

This sounds a lot like,...
"... But, your honor! It's unconstitutional for you to make me follow the constitution!!!"
This is shameful,... If only they had shame!!!

DISMANTLING CFPB: Judge Amy Berman Jackson has called a 10am hearing on whether the Trump administration violated her order against large-scale dismantling of the agency. She is seeking details of a purported reduction in force and the order to implement it.

acceber.bsky.social•5 days ago

Thank god for a still independent judiciary!

vickylacour.bsky.social•5 days ago

I would love for someone to do a piece on how many people have lost their jobs due to this reckless dismantling of our govt. and where is the jobs report?

STUDENT VISA TERMINATIONS: Multiple courts blocked efforts by the administration to terminate F-1 student visas for foreign full-time students. There is a growing list of these orders across the country saying admin is canceling the visas for reasons that violate the law.

orangedeflector.bsky.social•6 days ago

This is officially a police state

Screw regs, rules and laws

Biden and Garland own it

korkie.bsky.social•5 days ago

WTAF?!?

orangedeflector.bsky.social•5 days ago

yecats47.bsky.social•6 days ago

Who will reinstate these visas if courts tell them to do so? If they then stay with revoked visas, will they be considered here illegally and that’s how they get them? (Just a couple of questions I have about this subject).

harrissocal.bsky.social•5 days ago

For example, in Washington state, a judge found that the government improperly terminated a full-time student’s F-1 visa over a DUI arrest (but not conviction) in ways that violate the clear letter of law re: the bases for terminating student visas.

Problem is that the injunction against detainment and deportation while the government is directed to reinstate him on SEVIS is only for the two weeks until the next court date, on May 1. Knowing the government, they’ll sit on their hands. I wish they had basically made it final not a TRO.

grinch67.bsky.social•5 days ago

Now the operative question is whether anyone at y University of Texas or the University of Florida (or the University of Arkansas) has has their international student visa revoked

korkie.bsky.social•5 days ago

They can't find their millions of illegal immigrants so they're canceling visas and revoking Temporary Protective Status to make legally documented immigrants illegal so they can deport them.

I want to know why Russian IP addresses are accessing multiple US Gov’t agency computer systems shortly after DOGE gains Admin or Boot access to them.

eric-clarke.bsky.social•5 days ago

It’s not enough. Doge should be barred from all data, regardless of its sensitivity.

anneso71.bsky.social•5 days ago

And it came far too late

nlroundabout.bsky.social•6 days ago

I wonder if they pay any attention to these temporary holds.

kat-n-srq.bsky.social•6 days ago

Pretty sure that ship has already sailed, based on what Alt NP is posting. Doge set up a Starlink connection.

daryl-wildphotos.bsky.social•6 days ago

Will they even abide by the court ruling? Or give it 🖕🏿

knitpurlgurl.bsky.social•6 days ago

Good, but this has been going on for weeks! They have already accessed so much data. The rage I feel that this was ever allowed to happen-they have been forcing their way into agencies and police have helped🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

acceber.bsky.social•5 days ago

Same, sis.
Same.

myself11.bsky.social•5 days ago

By the way, THIS illegal access is why we are IN a constitutional crises and have been for over a month! A rouge Executive branch ignoring the law and stealing citizens personal data IS a constitutional crises!

mar4lene.bsky.social•5 days ago

So write an injunction that covers the whole
Body of information possessed and reminds trumpiatas that it’s already illegal and they will pay for what they have already done and twice over for anything new. Contempt on top of violation. Pretty easy to say in a shady paragraph.

myself11.bsky.social•5 days ago

But the damage is already done! How do they get the Jeanie back in the bottle. A judge needs to shut down doge as the scam it is.

jdooley47.bsky.social•5 days ago

Agree. Only stopping the hackers from initial access will work. Once in, they only need a few hours to grab copies of databases, then make edits/deletions. May have to use backups from early January to remedy their actions. Disaster, actually.

slpage63.bsky.social•5 days ago

If they didn’t erase all backups

myself11.bsky.social•5 days ago

It kills me all these half assed measures by people saying “we are edging towards a constitutional crisis” um things like this are why we have been there for over a month!

slpage63.bsky.social•5 days ago

It’s insane to me that ANY JUDGE allowed some independent made-up fake agency walk into ALL OF OUR PRIVATE GOVT AGENCIES & fire everyone & plug into OUR DATA. It’s unfathomable how much damage can be done in 10 minutes. And they’ve been given carte blanche-Days, weeks to steal,erase & transfer info

joanofsnark3.bsky.social•6 days ago

We had an excellent system in the GAO with people that really knew what they were doing & how the government is supposed to work – and they weren’t sharing personal information or destroying government employees or agencies‼️
