Any other Idahoans want a town hall? Regardless of how we voted, if we’re displeased at our reps inaction, we deserve to have our voices heard.

Idk if this is validating for others but both my therapist and my psych NP told me that comparing my compartmentalization to Severance “sounds nice” and “accurate”. I’m a school counselor in a deep red state where my lessons will likely be banned as the next boogie man. It’s a matter of time.

Our team reviewed the entire DOGE website. Nothing they have identified constitutes evidence of fraud or corruption—both of which are crimes. Feel free to audit us. The funds were allotted by Congress, and OIGs regularly reviewed expenditures for fraud.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: All six of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s children have been vaccinated. Not only is RFK Jr. a longtime anti-vaxxer, he has made a highly profitable career of endangering the lives of millions in his dangerous crusade against vaccinations. The ascendancy of this lying profiteer…

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Our government is being dissembled bit by bit from the inside.… By a ketamine clown who nobody voted for or trusts. This is a coup- Putin and all of China are celebrating.

Since the government isn’t allowed to tell us anymore, it’s on us to spread the word. Alternative channels, direct action, and good old-fashioned human connection—because silence isn’t an option.

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it. Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice. But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word. They aren’t firing for a reason.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

As someone else pointed out this is the exact same trick Elon played at his companies. It’s not a “buyout.” The money has not been authorized by Congress. They are playing games. Don’t fall for this bullshit.

The saddest part and most frustrating part? We had the advantage of the opportunity to learn from the mistakes made in Germany- But our fellow citizens didn’t care. They either voted for a proven madman or couldn’t be bothered at all.

Two days since the inauguration, my job as an advocate has become much more complicated living in a deep Red State. First ICE raids…okay. But then Birth Right Citizenship is repealed despite the 14th Amendment…great now I need to make a mental list. But now secure places don’t exist. Fuck.

One man had a dream of unity, justice & equality. Another dreams of being seen as something he’s not. On this day, let’s honor the legacy of MLK Jr.—a leader who built bridges, not walls. Choose light over noise, hope over chaos. They can’t stop the dream when we stand together.
