Sadly, it’s time to revive this 2017 TIME cover.

Thanks to everyone who participated nationwide!

Russia and China, have ramped up recruitment efforts targeting US federal employees—particularly those recently fired or at risk of termination. These efforts are unfolding aggressively on LinkedIn, where adversaries are reaching out under the guise of job opportunities, networking, and consulting.

Yup!

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F. 18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it. We made this website to tell our story: 18f.org

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Forgot about $Trump the Memecoin? His crypto is sinking like a rock.

Federal workers at a Virginia town hall last night—this says it all! “I know their goal is to make us miserable.” — so they don’t show up to work. And Dems, take note: People aren’t here for your ill-timed, tone-deaf donation requests. It’s going to backfire. They want to see you fight for them!

TODAY…

Believe me, I understand that my activism is a problem for you. Please know that your inactivism is similarly problematic for me. It's part of the reason I am as angry as I am. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dear-conce...

Park rangers want YOU to help us protect our parks! This Saturday, 3/1, in solidarity with the 50:50:1 movement, plan a protest in support of your closest national park. Do it at 12 noon your time, or whatever best fits your secret plan 👀🤠😏 #ProtectOurParks #SaveOurParks #RehireRangers

If you’re siding with Vladimir Putin, you’re wrong.

This hits hard… “Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.” You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.

this week's cover is on point ht: @jamiegangel.bsky.social

I ♥️ you, @katiephang.bsky.social

[Silence.]

The Revolution will be AI-icized

A message from the brave woman - Dr, Teresa Borrenpohl - who was dragged out by unmarked private security in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

All the folks who exited NBC today. Seen together, hoo boy. Message received.

Currently appearing at UK bus-stops. More of this pointed ridicule, please.

Germany’s new leader: “Trump does not care about Europe and is aligning with Russia.. goal needs to be independence from 🇺🇸…” Our allies helped make us great. As we abandon them, they are turning away from us. Think about who this helps. (Hint: not us) www.politico.eu/article/frie...

Sending an email to employees asking them to list five things they did that week is a classic move from a manager who has no idea how to manage

It's nice to see, but honestly, this was "news" in 2015.

Imagine being an Article III judge and you get this email on a Saturday night lol

Lord, @hcrichardson.bsky.social kicks ass.

Jane Fonda: Have any of you watched a documentary of one of the great social movements like apartheid, or our civil rights movement, or Stonewall and asked yourself, would you have been brave enough to walk the bridge? We don’t have to wonder anymore because we are in our documentary moment. 🎥: 1/2

The problem with America’s legal system To practice law: —4 year degree, take LSAT, 3 year JD, pass BAR, buy malpractice insurance, total cost ~$300K To enforce the law: —Here’s paid 13-week training & a gun To write the law: —0 qualifications needed, a billionaire can buy your seat Smh

@reedhoward.bsky.social: “A bomb threat by the Proud Boys disrupted the #PrinciplesFirst Summit today—an event dedicated to democracy, character & the rule of law. Violence & intimidation have no place in our politics. We will not be silenced or intimidated. We will keep fighting for what’s right.”

Stop reposting this. It's wrong. The news out of Yosemite is horrific, but this is incorrect. (Former Yosemite ranger here, still connected to folks in the park.) About a dozen employees in Yosemite have lost their jobs. There are still approximately 400 employees in Yosemite.

Our German supporters made us realize we made a mistake, and we want to acknowledge it. Germany, you’re in our thoughts. While we’re relieved that AfD was defeated, we understand this is not a moment for celebration. There is still much work ahead, and we stand in solidarity with you.

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.

Q: How evil do you have to be to cut a Dolly book program? A: Pretty f*cking evil. Solution: Dolly for Prez! Dolly Parton Calls Out Indiana Gov Over Plan to Dump Her Imagination Library www.thedailybeast.com/dolly-parton... cc @drjengunter.bsky.social

They want us to be afraid. They want us to hesitate. They want us to fear their next move. Fuck that shit. We are just getting started fighting.

“More than a quarter of the contracts listed by DOGE were actually already paid, the Journal found, saving no money. For instance, DOGE listed $168,000 in savings for terminating a contract with HHS for an Anthony Fauci museum exhibit. It had already been fully paid.” Beyond parody.

Musk thinks and acts as if he is in charge of the entire federal government

This is so disturbing. A woman was violently attacked by Republicans at a town hall in Idaho because she had the nerve to speak up. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-y1...

I find it incomprehensible that so many Democratic politicians post on Twitter but NOT on Bluesky. I post on both platforms whenever possible, but I’ll post on Bluesky FIRST. I mean, WTF? 🤬

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

It's never good when the richest person in the world and the worst person in the world are the same person.

This was always about cutting the federal government so the tax cuts for the very wealthy don’t expire. This was never about “efficacy.”

Yesterday domestic terrorists attempted to intimidate me and Michael Fanone (imagine that 🙄) Longer video coming soon. Heading back out to go inspire and get in good trouble. 🫶🏽✌🏽

Why is @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social on book tour instead of doing a fight back tour?
