ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

The way predatory people like Musk operate is they get their foot in the door incrementally. Just comply with my email, what’s so hard about that? Then when people give in because they don’t want a hassle, he owns you. Then he comes back next time demanding something much worse.

Will an economic spending freeze make a difference in just one day? YES Just 34,000 of us united for one powerful day of protest by pausing spending will matter! Your purchases may seem small-but we can create a ripple effect that impacts the economy and highlights the issues we care about.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

. How many times do we have to watch these people throw up Nazi salutes before we admit they’re running this country? Ban it. Shut it down. This isn’t a warning sign—it’s the alarm blaring in your face. Wake the hell up. #CPAC #Elon #Bannon #Trump

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.

Steve Bannon was applauded at CPAC after he gave a Nazi salute followed by an “amen.” Elon gave one too. Believe your own eyes & ears. Conservatives have aligned themselves with the ideology that used gas chambers to murder millions.

He was not afraid when a 64-kilometre-long military convoy was moving toward Kyiv, when the Russians were advancing tens of kilometres a day, and when there was no help from the West or other countries. Naive fools think that he will be afraid now.
