Really interesting interview with Maria Ressa. She talks about the MANY parallels between what’s happening in the US and what happened in the Philippines. tl;dr version: WAKE UP AMERICA! open.spotify.com/episode/0xVK...

Might save a life.

People are losing civil rights, jobs, access to necessary services. Free speech and education are on the chopping block. If the rest of the Democrats don’t start getting real loud real fast, I fear we will no longer have a Congress in which we can choose to vote them out.

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

A federal judge in San Francisco issued a temporary restraining order on the Trump administration's firings of thousands of probationary employees, calling the actions illegal.

Pretty bad news for those who are immunocompromised or immunosuppressed. Or you know, just don’t want to catch the flu next year. www.cidrap.umn.edu/influenza-va...

1. A friend just shared this template for writing to your Senators if you are federal employee that received the “tell us five things you did last week” email.

This is sickening. We cannot let them silence us nor erase our history. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/a...

A small museum says all but one sponsor of a Girls in STEM event backed out, fearing retaliation from the Trump administration over "DEI." Evan Kruegel reports for @nexton9news.bsky.social. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zg1n...

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Way to stand up for justice, Danielle Sassoon!! www.npr.org/2025/02/13/n...

@democrats-judiciary.house.gov start playing hardball and fight against this coup! indivisible.org/resource/how...

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Trump has the gall to blame the fatal DC crash on DEI policies. Who is he going to blame the one in Philly on? There were no fatal commercial plane crashes during Biden's administration. Now there have been two in a week in Trump's administration. Wonder why 🤔🙄 apnews.com/article/coas...

Colorado Dept of Education - are you going to respond similarly?
