Elmo is demanding that 2.3M federal employees submit 5 bullets representing their accomplishments last week (or be fired). Fun fact. If 2.3M employees spend 5 minutes each answering that email, it will cost taxpayers $8.5M. Your taxpayer dollars funding his harassment of Feds. Now you know.

🚨911 Federal Employees Here is how you respond to the email.... #revolution2025

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

Closely approaching the Streisand effect. 🚨This is their 2nd attempt at removing this image🚨 Why don't they want you to see this pic of Trump appointee Pete Marocco and wife, Merritt Corrigan, before they crawl through a broken Capitol window? instagram.com/stories/high... Timecode: 9:08

This is an *incredibly important* story. First this, then this guy was inside the Capitol on Jan. 6. Now he's in charge of the decimation of USAID.

My office is hearing reports that the Trump administration’s purges include firing veterans who have served our country for years. Our veterans deserve better. If you've been impacted, call congress: (202) 224-3121 And share your story: www.veterans.senate.gov/contact-rank...

“We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests.” -FDR, 1941

I’m in Munich and people keep asking me to decode Vance’s speech. OK: In Vance English “free speech” means “Let Musk run your elections” and “democracy” means “let Russia run your elections.” Now move on. 2025 is about what Europeans do, not what Americans say.

Awful: Internal USAID memo instructs employees to refrain from talking to the media about cuts in assistance to the most vulnerable or they may get fired, WaPo reports. Trumpworld knows this is a big political problem for them. Keep the focus on it. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/1915...

The NIH funding cut puts at risk about 600 current and ongoing clinical trials at Hopkins. That includes open clinical trials in cancer, pediatrics and children’s health, heart and vascular studies and the aging brain.

The incompetence is staggering Firing people in charge of maintaining the safety of nuclear weapons is insane. This will adversely effect people the environment and our wildlife. www.npr.org/2025/02/13/n...

A reminder: Vladimir Putin could end the war in Ukraine right now, just by ordering his soldiers to go home. No need for treaties or negotiations.

Here's a report Trump's DOGE guy at Treasury is using to justify snooping at Treasury. It cites as much as $281.4B in improper payments (for FY 2021, which started in October 2020). But much of this is COVID related. And what is not was also a problem under Trump. www.gao.gov/assets/gao-2...

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out. Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation. Say equity, which a just society should pursue. Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

⚡️ The historic moment of Estonia leaving the Russian-fed power grid. On February 8, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia left Russia and Belarus energy system. By the end of the day today, they will have joined the European grid.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
