Power of the people…

A good reminder to dump the Google (and Apple Maps)

So for those keeping score at home: FOX & even NEWSMAX are backing the AP against Trump’s ban Yet ZERO media outlets have spoken up for us here in Tennessee, where Speaker Sexton bans us from pressers and the (AP-chaired) press corps unanimously votes against us 🤔

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

When a judge stops the president from doing something illegal, that’s not a “threat to democracy,” that’s a check on the president’s power. That's the whole damn point.

Just simple math, but there's gotta be the most fraud and abuse in billionaire tax returns. So I'm sure Edolf and the DOGE Technobabyz are looking at those.

Hey, @msnbc.com. Why do you allow your readers to share articles on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and most other major platforms — but NOT Bluesky? Asking for nearly 32 million users.

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

Hey y’all! I’m ready to delete FB. Any tips for maintaining photos (other than the obvious that I know from 2025). Muchas Gracias!

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Look who survived the snow. Amanita pantherina/panther cap. Scroll down for gills. The veil is still partially intact. #fungifriends

Here is a nice mushroom

my view is that as soon as the administration froze disbursement of congressional appropriations we entered constitutional crisis territory

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

Egg prices are surging, gas prices are up, and planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. And this is what the White House is focused on.

Hearing that DOGE went into the Dept of Education today and shut down almost the entirety of the department's in-house research arm, Institute of Educational Sciences, cancelling contracts totally about $900m.
