DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

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)

@gutsickgibbon.bsky.social @forrestvalkai.bsky.social you two need to do more together. You play so well off of each other. I especially love the science rabbit trails both of you go off on

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

BREAKING On Monday, Popular Information broke the news that the NIH had frozen virtually all grant funding in violation of 2 federal court orders On Wednesday, NIH leadership distributed a memo, acknowledging that its funding freeze was illegal and directing staff to resume issuing grants.

@mcuban.bsky.social do something to help. You have the money and the connections. The courts are being ignored and the Democrats are doing nothing that will actually help. Every business is caving. I have only enough influence to affect the people around me. I am doing that, but it's not enough.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do. Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

"Restore biological truth" are some pretty strong words from the administration that just censored the CDC and the NSF to promote their ideology.

I have answered the call. We start in 45 min. www.youtube.com/live/og-TUDN...

I know there are some tech savvy journalists following me, let me know if you're interested in the security outcomes of random computers being plugged into federal government department networks and I'll try to get you in touch with someone with explicit expertise who can tell you how bad it is

I love video games so much because they can be all so different and tell amazing stories or just be silly. Am so grateful to the people that create them and share their art with the world. Thank you

Multiple school systems released advisories stating that Trump’s order mandating discrimination will not be followed.

We used to all hold our breath hoping a shooter wasn’t a Muslim or a trans person. Now we gotta worry if the air traffic controller was Black?! Do you see how far they have moved the window?

🏆 Governor Pritzker- Illinois - has signed an order prohibiting all J6 rioters from state employment.

The fact that this exists around us but we got stuck on this stupid planet with a bunch of man babies trying to work out their grievances is just so annoying.

Americans forget that we already have a concentration camp: A confined space where crimes are covered up with more crimes because laws do not exist

Yesterday I was asked to resign from the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board. I tendered my resignation with this note. Nobody will read it, most likely, but it’s the writing of it that mattered to me.

UPDATE: Trump rescinds memo freezing federal grants, but spokesperson says freeze still in effect www.chalkbeat.org/2025/01/29/t...

“We must state the truth: this is a constitutional crisis. It’s a massive, illegal power grab that the House and Senate have a sworn duty to stop," Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wrote on X Tuesday.

Whole Foods workers in a Pennsylvania store vote to form the first union under Amazon ownership, joining a local chapter of the UFCW.

BREAKING: Philadelphia workers have won the first Whole Foods union under Amazon with UFCW. Since Amazon bought the chain, workers have lost benefits and felt the squeeze. Now they're fighting back against the multi-trillion dollar giant and hoping this win will be the first of many.

Only a tiny minority of biologists think human sex is binary, and they're all neo-liberal propagandists. freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2...

After a flood of EV investment in red states, most of the places where EV jobs might be undercut by Trump's action are also places that helped elect him.

Too harsh?

Pin this, save it, we’ll need it. “When a prison camp opens in your town…when a DREAMer is disappeared from your classroom…when the President destroys what’s left of the Constitution…They will all say they didn’t know this was coming. And I want the American people to know that they did.” AOC 🔥🎯

Might’ve accidentally talked way too much about swords in an interview. But it’s true. I’ve always liked swords. Here’s the one my dad made for me as a kid, when I was only about this big. I painted the blade in sparkly silver nail polish to make it shine.

We know what it is, stop defending it.
