You know what Republican officials eally hate? They hate being protested by their own constituents at airports and public places. If they refuse to schedule town halls, I suspect people will probably find them where they can. www.cnn.com/2021/01/08/p...

Strongly dislike getting ripped off by almost every giant corporation I have any interaction with.

Word of the Day is ‘ingordigiousness’ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

Musk is the answer to a question nobody thought to pose (What if Billy Quizboy was not only dumber than his reputation, but also completely unlovable?)

Of one of these is your senator, you can find their contact info at reps.fyi. Worth noting: Gillibrand used to show up on these lists a lot. She hasn't recently. A LOT of us called and yelled at her; I'm thinking it might have made a difference. Call your reps, friends. It matters.

Trump allies circulate mass deportation plan calling for ‘processing camps’ and private citizen ‘army’ The group is led by Blackwater founder Erik Prince, blueprint would cost $25 billion, recommends aggressive tactics to deport 12 million people by 2026 midterms www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

What's that, you say? A charming children's book about cats that's also an anticapitalist fable? In the public domain???

To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

Hundreds of protesters gather outside Children’s Hospital Los Angeles to demand it roll back restrictions on transgender care for youth:

MORE BARGING

BREAKING: Federal judge temporarily blocks Trump administration from implementing anti-trans Trump orders that would stop trans-related medical care in federal prisons and lead to trans inmates’ transfers. This followed a hearing in DC earlier today. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

BREAKING: Major publishers, alongside the Authors Guide, bestselling authors, and others, have filed a lawsuit against Idaho's draconian book ban bill, claiming First and Fourteenth Amendment violations. bookriot.com/idaho-hb710-...

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

Chants of "lock him up!" ring out about Elon Musk at Democratic Musk protest in DC

One of my current reads. Brilliant writing.

Get UP STL— Want to join me for this Indivisible event? mobilize.us/s/sfEkNv

Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

Delete your Twitter accounts.

A DHS employee tells me that they are starting to get phone calls from random members of the public asking why “Elon has their social security number.” So that’s where we’re at.

TOMORROW: We’re rallying at the Treasury building with @moveon.org to stop Elon Musk’s hostile takeover and tell this unelected billionaire to get his hands off our money. We hope you can join us if you’re in the D.C. area.

A group of uncleared, unvetted, civilians have gained access to all of my federal records including military personnel, retirement and disability. They are reportedly feeding them into AI. I want them arrested and charged with federal crimes. Right fucking now! How is this even a discussion?

Just CALLED all my reps to ask them for an explanation on how a private, foreign citizen and his interns have taken control of congressionally-mandated govt agencies and what actions they are taking to respond to this national emergency. I hope you will too. www.commoncause.org/find-your-re...

The world’s richest man who no one elected just walked into the US Treasury, stole your Social Security number, and Trump let him. You deserve to know why this is happening - call your member of Congress and Senators (202) 224-3121 and ask why.

I think body slamming one of these DOGE guys through a table when they show up at your little part of the Department of Agriculture that weighs cows would actually have an impact

Chappell Roan used her Best New Artist acceptance speech to demand that labels offer “a livable wage and healthcare, especially to developing artists…. Labels, we got you, but do you got us?” #GRAMMYs

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM. We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building. Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

Anti-ICE protesters are blocking both sides of the 101 Freeway near the Alameda Street exit in DTLA. The CHP has since closed that portion of the freeway.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

This Fiona Apple narrated explainer PSA on how to film (and release footage from, not livestream) ICE arrests is exactly what we need from people with production skills right now and is worth about 3 million celebrity “imagine” covers in terms of survival utility

@warren.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov WE DON’T NEED ANOTHER STATEMENT. WE NEED YOU TO LISTEN TO YOUR CONSTITUENTS AND DO SOMETHING!!

So let me get this straight: Trump is trying to fire 5000 FBI agents while Musk's team of nine 20-something dorks has seized access to OMB and the Treasury. Um, Democrats, grab 100 of those about to be fired FBI agents and arrest those dorks! Get them out of there! They can't even fight!

I'm glad that America is doing real classic end of empire stuff. A king who is visibly losing his mind declaring a war based on a dream he had. Greedy courtiers feuding over access to the treasury. Some looks are timeless.

For all our American neighbours who may be struggling to find accurate health information - thr Public Health Agency of Canada has a website you are more than welcome to use: www.canada.ca/en/public-he...

you can’t post “death to elon musk” on here or they’ll delete it. just so you know, if you were planning on posting “death to elon musk” don’t do it. don’t post “death to elon musk” here on bluesky. this is not a place where you can post “death to elon musk” with impunity.

JUST IN: B.C. Premier David Eby says he directed B.C. Liquor sales to immediately stop buying American liquor from red states and remove the highest-selling brands from those states from the shelves of the province’s liquor stores.

It was the worse of times, it was the worst of times.

Elon Musk literally bought himself the fucking presidency of the United States of America. And what that UNELECTED fucking psychopath is doing to this country is absolutely batshit motherfucking, game over, in-fucking-sane. So that means that we need to get motherfucking LOUD. Right the FUCK now.
