Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

AP reports >> Judge blocks Trump’s executive order ending federal support for DEI programs. apnews.com/article/dei-...

This is fantastic. Would love to see @bsky.app add some unique features that haven’t been done elsewhere or an alternative to features being done at the bad places that haven’t been replicated yet. For example, being able to replicate groups or communities would help get people off Facebook.

WAKE UP!!!!! It's all FEAR PORN. How many transgender athletes are there in the U.S.? Out of 510,000 athletes competing at the collegiate level, there are FEWER THAN TEN who publicly identify as transgender, Charlie Baker, the N.C.A.A. president, said in January

Send Dems into rural America to talk about what Trump is doing. The Republicans are too scared and won’t show their faces…in the vacuum of messaging, there is power. Tell the folks who is hurting them. Point to the GOP. Be the foil to the shit that’s happening. Be the party of the people.

Valuing diversity is not a crime Installing white men in every position of power is not a meritocracy

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

Hegseth fired Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first female officer to rise to the Navy’s top job of Chief of Naval Operations. Trump fired Gen. Charles Brown Jr., a four-star fighter who became only the second African American to hold the job of Joint Chiefs Chairman. A Black man and a woman.

Promoting an 0-9 to Chairman of the Joint Chiefs is insane - Trump is going to have to promote him to four star AND waive the legal requirements to even hold the position Dan Caine had a distinguished career, but he’s never been a vice chair, combatant commander or service chief

firing for "too much DEI" is plainly firing a woman and a Black man on the presumption only white men can be qualified. this is disgusting biogtry.

And who they didn't like

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

I’m forcing the Senate to vote on an amendment to reverse Trump’s layoffs of thousands of critical wildland firefighters. My colleagues claim to support our first responders. Time for them to prove it.

I don't think I've ever been this angry in my entire life

Breaking: judge orders a probe into Justice Department’s dismissal request of Eric Adams! WOW!

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

The Pentagon is now pausing their mass firing of civilian employees in order to evaluate potential impacts on military readiness. I’m just spitballing here, but maybe a readiness assessment should have been the first step. 🤦‍♂️

Spineless, yellow-bellied, lily-livered, weak-kneed, pusillanimous chickenshits.

From his desire to weaponize an independent federal body to his lack of qualifications, it's clear that the Senate must vote NO on Kash Patel. He's not fit to lead the FBI.

Does Congress even remember that it has the power of the purse? www.law.cornell.edu/constitution...

Listen to @aoc.bsky.social. She's speaking the truth.

These self-identified Jesus-followers are celebrating the separation of parents from their children and spouses from one another; cheering families torn apart, lives violently uprooted, and human beings being terrorized at school and at work and at church. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-youre-a...

Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Joni Ernst, etc: You’ve seen Hegseth, RFK Jr, and others give worthless assurances. You’re now seeing the US appease Putin, and DOJ guardrails crumble. Are you going to let Kash Patel use the FBI against his enemies list and further destroy the rule of law?

I just heard...about 5 minutes ago...Rachel Maddow said that Trump has announced he is going to INCINERATE $500 MILLION dollars of COVID-19 tests...that taxpayers have ALREADY paid for. Something needs to happen...fast. This is bullshit that cannot continue. This. Cannot. Continue.

Please quit resigning!!!!!

As a result, she said, just three full-time employees remain in both the Yellowstone and Bozeman ranger districts to manage 19 rental cabins, 60 bathrooms, 21 campgrounds and other infrastructure spread across 1 million acres. www.bozemandailychronicle.com/townnews/wor...

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

True.

America Gives Trump an Earful at 'Not My President's Day' Rallies President Donald Trump's contentious first month in office was marked by thousands of Americans taking to the streets to protest his leadership. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

He is firing National Nuclear Security personnel? Musk is in the SS system? Musk is in the IRS system? He is firing park rangers? Firing FAA personnel? Cal your Senators and House members!!!!! Enough!

It’s FUKKKING tiring already!

You know what Trump didn’t run on and wasn’t in Project 2025? Giving all your private tax information to Elon Musk. No one voted for this.

Yes, indeed — what the fuck!!! 😡
