People were mean to him on Twitter, so he bought Twitter. People were still mean to him, so he bought the US government. And he is going to use it to hunt down those bad people!

The censorship on Twitter was just too much. A 98% drop in engagement since Musk bought it. From a little over 1,000,000 views a week to less than 17,000. So we moved on over to blue sky. Follow us here at @altyellonatpark.org Because somebody somewhere Needs flowers tonight

Seismic scoop from @lenasun.bsky.social: A long-time anti-vaxer who was disciplined for practising medicine without a license has been selected by #HHS to conduct the study RFK Jr. wants looking yet again at whether vaccines cause autism. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Based on the replies l, it looks like there a lot of fed workers on @bsky.app I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I can't imagine the shit you are going through right now Thanks for your service to our country

I said it and mean it. "At least one Democratic attorney on Tuesday threatened legal action. Marc Elias, who has been the subject of Trump’s ire, said in a social media post: 'This will not stand. We will sue.'" apnews.com/article/voti...

Yesterday’s news was proof that the you don’t need a “coveted” pass for the White House daily briefing to get the inside scoop.

Warner, with Gabbard and Ratcliffe sitting in front of him: "If this was the case of a military officer or an intelligence officer and they had this kind of behavior, they would be fired."

If only America would protect school children the way it protects Teslas.

There's a reason why they're freaking out over what's happening to Tesla. It's working. There's a reason they're threatening absurd consequences. They need to scare you back into civility and compliance. As long as we're reluctant to cross the lines they ignore daily, they have the upper hand.

This. Right. Here.

Welcome to all our new followers! 💚

Figured I’d hop on here today for the 15th anniversary of the Affordable Care Act. With everything going on right now, it’s easy to feel like regular folks can’t make a difference – but the ACA is a reminder that change is possible when we fight for progress.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

we believe we are special and we simply are not

Something to think about

500+ signed up to attend the Senator Todd Young Empty Chair Town Hall. Just think if he’d actually bothered to show up. www.mobilize.us/indivisiblec...

It’s day 57 of the Trump administration. Prices are sky-high. Markets have crashed. Measles is spreading. Benefits are under attack. But in good news, Donald Trump got a drone light show.

FWIW, @jasonleopold.bsky.social's FOIA newsletter is available w/o paywall.

Musk's censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by about 95% since he bought it. So we moved over to blue sky. Help us build another great following right here where the skies are clear and the water is fine ;-) Please do Follow Retweet & repeat

For the first time in 83 years, the voice of America fell silent this weekend. For more than eight decades, that voice had (not always consistently) championed democratic values, challenged tyrants and bullies. This weekend, Donald Trump silenced it. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...

This is outrageous

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

I just signed up for RW&B/HVL April Monthly Meeting 6pm! Want to join me? redwineblue.controlshift.app/events/rw-b-...

How can a country that does this host the World Cup next year? No person traveling to the US is safe. bsky.app/profile/news...

Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away. They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

In rereading Gene Sharp to get ready for lectures this week, I started thinking about the endless — and relatively unhelpful — discourse on BlueSky this week re the CR, congressional process, and whether or not anyone has an actual plan. Some thoughts thru the lens of nonviolent action: /1

Perhaps someone should have bothered understanding the demographic makeup of our armed forces before deleting all the history celebrating them all. Aka, absolutely demeaning the service of people like them

Who’s ready for a Midwest Town Hall? Let’s go! #regionalism @andybeshearky.bsky.social @govpritzker.illinois.gov @kenmartin.bsky.social @petebuttigieg.bsky.social

The Defense Dept has deleted references to Black, Hispanic & female service members as well as topics such as the Civil War from its website in order to remove all references to diversity, equity, & inclusion. Sgt William H. Carney, a former slave, is the first black man to get the Medal of Honor.

Just thinking about what the US looked like before the EPA existed

National Park Service advocates say more than 30 facilities, including visitor centers, have been targeted for lease terminations.

🔥🔥🔥 I’m 80 years old. I decided to call #SocialSecurity “If you are calling about a disability application due to staffing reductions, our average processing time for disability applications is 200 to 230 days. The estimated hold time is greater than 120 minutes”

The GOP is crazy.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

happening now… woe to all news orgs that did not stand in solidarity with @apnews.com and by that i mean boycott orange caligula

Let's organize a flood of op-eds arguing for personal reproductive liberty, so we can demonstrate the charade Bezos is engaged in ASAP.

WATCH: Hegseth accidentally admits they fired all the military attorneys so they won’t be “roadblocks to anything” — then tries to clean it up and quickly move on

If only there were people dedicated to spotting and containing outbreaks… oh.

:: Elon’s Progress Report :: By now, many Feds have received an email demanding they send a 5-bullet progress report to “HR” on Monday. We, the #AltGovs, advise federal staff to NOT COMPLY. Remember professional ethics.
