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.

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.

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...

Every artist I know is really struggling right now. Financially, emotionally, their confidence, in general. If you like an artist's work, support them any way you can. Buying their stuff or subscribing to their Patreon is great, but words of encouragement are also incredibly helpful.

If any of our former NATO or Five Eyes allies have intelligence data and assessments, which surely they must, about the background of the leader of their new strategic adversary, the United States, now is as good a time as any to release them, subject to protection of methods and sources, of course.

We are now finding bird flu in deer mice and house mice in Washington State. H5N1 is advancing along the evolutionary ladder—affecting birds, mammals, and humans. This is not speculation; it’s a timeline.

Modern-Day Peaceful Protest… TikTokers are hunting Cybertrucks—pulling up behind them and projecting anti-Elon Musk messages onto the tailgate. What’s genius: the driver has zero rear visibility & zero idea. The Cybertruck Hunters account launched a week ago and already dropped a dozen videos.

For the first weeks, Americans seemed frozen, expecting institutions to do something. Americans were used to “checks and balances” and “guardrails” working. That didn’t happen. People realized that they had to take matters into their own hands. 👇

So let's get this straight: The U.S. and Elon are now extorting Ukraine and threatening to turn off their Starlink Internet access unless they give their critical rare earth minerals to the United States? Staggering levels of corruption.

this is from a new report on a “third way” on DEI and it is unbelievably naive, which in my view is emblematic of the author, rich kahlenberg, whose willingness to extend good faith to obvious bad faith actors borders on gullibility www.progressivepolicy.org/a-way-out-of...

I absolutely love that Governor Janet Mills told the orange felon to his face that she’ll see him in court after he vindictively threatened to pull out all federal funding from the state of Maine. She has no time for his sexist tyrant stupid bullshit and I’m here for it. 👏

Nice job, maga! Kings Musk & Trump don’t need Telehealth — so they’re taking it away from everyone: all of you who are not as rich, powerful or privileged as Trump & his Tech Bros. Why are Americans struggling to make ends meet be stripped of this invaluable healthcare tool? We have to fight!!!

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.

Something odd just happened—an article that had been widely published on media sites has suddenly disappeared without any retraction or explanation. Many may have come across it on Reddit.
