With or without Musk, DOGE is still a violation of the Art II Appointments clause. These remaining Muskites have functioned as officers exercising executive power (e.g. directly shutting off payments) w/o Congress creating their offices & w/o lawful appointment: www.propublica.org/article/doge...

"To recap, the Natural Resources Committee amendment mandates the sale of up to 3.3 million acres of public land, but authorizes the sale of much more." This is crazy. Call your useless reps and give them an earful!

Trump wants to look strong. What he doesn’t understand is that true power comes from the people. And today, we’re going to prove it with thousands of peaceful protests: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #nokings

Trump ICE regime forces are kidnapping former Afghan translators that risked their lives to help the US. The regime in coordination with corrupt judges is entrapping people. When they show up to hearings the corrupt judges dismiss their cases quickly to allow ICE to snatch the victims. #3E #StopICE

It appears that we are actively and directly involved in a major conflict between Israel and Iran which is rapidly escalating and the only thing we have heard from the admin is an obviously false denial from the Sec of State and a Truth Social post from the president about peace talks.

I encourage people protesting to be non destructive and non violent. And I remind: Proud Boys like infiltrating crowds, whipping up normies (this is what happened on 1.6) and creating chaos. Putting you, using your 1a, in peril. Distinguish yourself from these goons always. Heads on swivels, folks.

Dear Journalists, I would like to share two maps. One is the area where the protests in LA are taking place. The other is the area where the US Constitution is under assault by a tyrannical regime. Any questions on the relative scale of the two stories?

"Shark nets" at beaches are not barriers that keep sharks out. They kill sharks. And anything else that swims into them. If you want to go for a swim and not see marine life, I might suggest a pool or a lake. news.mongabay.com/short-articl...

Seeing some reactions to this calling it a strongly worded letter. While true in a literal sense that this is a letter, it’s unprecedented—and an escalation of a growing trend of unrest inside NIH. This took bravery. Each of the signers put their career on the line. We should acknowledge that.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.” They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

In the last 20 or so minutes I’ve seen LAPD officers shove women to the ground without provocation, rip a sign out of a man’s hand and then swing a baton into his leg and raise a less-lethal launcher to aim directly at a protester (which I’m 99% is a major policy violation.)
