It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

If I had to respond to an email as a federal employee asking me what I did at work last week, I'd make sure to list all the duties I had to absorb because of mass illegal firings, followed by a description of what the EPA's Walter Peck did in Ghostbusters.

A new website created by about a dozen federal employees, called “We the Builders,” aims to be a secure outlet for government workers to share stories about how their workplaces are being impacted by DOGE, and a place to explain the real-world impact of its access to government tech systems.

Don't know about you, but I have something Elon Musk will never have: ENOUGH

DANCE FOR ME, PEASANTS! DANCE!

Donald Trump promised to let Elon Musk self-police his conflicts of interest. The result? Those investigating his companies have been fired. Cases against his companies have been dismissed. The corrupt self-dealing is staggering.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

He nails it.

(AP) — Elon Musk’s cost-cutting team is eliminating jobs at the vehicle safety agency that oversees Tesla and has launched investigations into deadly crashes involving his company’s cars. #OligarchEra 🇺🇸 apnews.com/article/musk...

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Not very transparent www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Demand your GOP congressman cut their budget and lay off some staff. Congress spends 6.4billion/year on their own operations.

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.

Bread and circuses status update: -Not enough bread -Too many circuses

With each passing day this administration weakens our country, increases the risks we face and strengthens our enemies. Every day.

Breaking News: There’s a purge happening at the Pentagon. Joint Chiefs Chairman = FIRED Chief of the Navy = FIRED Vice Chief of the Air Force = FIRED Judge Advocates General for the Army, Navy, and Air Force = FIRED But the alcoholic, weekend anchor is still mumbling about “our war fighters.”

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

We have breaking news for @votevets.org as Trump fires the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs on Friday night. Join us shortly. www.youtube.com/live/OdOjEdR...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

Trump pardoned the sentence of arguably the single biggest drug trafficker in American history on his second day in office!

There’s something happening in this country.

Starting to think the right’s mEmE KiNg WhO LeGaLiZeD CoMedY is actually just a whiny little bitch with a fragile ego.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

So how are you feeling about getting on a plane these days? What about publicly expressing criticism of the administration? The risks facing us as Americans are changing in ways I never imagined possible. Fast. My latest. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...

Hey congressional Republicans, still waiting for you to announce how much you’re cutting from congress’ own $6.5 billion budget….

“No kings, no tyrants.” Thanks @chriswarcraft.bsky.social for using your powers for good.

People need to understand this: Trump did not leave office willingly the first time. If his health holds up, he will not leave office willingly this time. He is not joking about serving more than two terms.

I’m an American and I support Zelenskyy. And it’s not close.
