1. REACTED [NOFORN] 2. REDACTED [ORCON] 3. REDACTED [SI/TK] 4. REDACTED [HCS-O] 5. Responded to this stupid fucking email

The National Institutes of Health had to stop considering new grant applications, delaying funding for research into diseases ranging from heart disease and cancer to Alzheimer's and allergies.

The House could vote next week on drastic cuts to Medicaid that would gut critical programs that protect the civil rights and dignity of millions of Americans — including people with disabilities. Contact your member of Congress: No cuts to Medicaid.

Sending an email to employees asking them to list five things they did that week is a classic move from a manager who has no idea how to manage

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

What’s wasteful is ordering feds to explain their jobs instead of letting them DO their jobs.

Members of the military are supposed to be loyal to the Constitution, not the president. Changing that seems to have been the point of the Friday Night Massacre. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

First thing I have seen today that has made me genuinely smile!

OK, the report is now fully in major media. Media must get an extensive White House response; Congress must investigate (even if it's a minority report); DOJ and the FBI must investigate; the CIA must issue a report on what it knew about this and when.

These people all have actual conflicts of interest that should keep them from working on any investigations like this. It's a measure of how tainted and corrupt this Justice Department is becoming and it breaks my heart. I hope it doesn't break our country. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The Trump administration is canceling presentations including book talks on important civil rights issues at the Carter Center & possibly elsewhere. Let’s celebrate these authors by buying & reading their books. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/a...

Can’t wait for the cartels to switch over to smuggling in mRNA Avian Flu vaccines because the US refuses to approve them.

Trump was willing to stand up there for a few minutes to pretend to care about black history, but hugging the guy was a deal breaker.

Dear OPM FOIA staff - Remember to preserve all of these email responses, as we will be submitting FOIA requests for this consolidated compilation of information on what the entire federal government did last week. Thx - FOIA community

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Scaring people into quitting didn’t work, so now it’s a new game. X isn’t for gov’t business, and not replying to an email isn’t a legal resignation. We could’ve had housing help, tax breaks for workers, and better healthcare. Instead, we’re stuck with this.

“Mega corporations have driven up prices, underpaid their workers, and outsourced jobs while raking in record profits. We are a movement of people, unionizing to take back control of our economy, government and future of our country. Join us‼️” theonecalledjai.com

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.

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

I’m wondering the same thing! Why would any nation sit idly by as its supposed “leader” creates a brand new organization simply to lay off, or fire, up to 200,000 federal employees (DOGE’s goal number), causing record high unemployment numbers... *Continued below in comments👇🏻*

We can literally TAKE BACK THE HOUSE now!! We'll tie it if we flip both of these Florida seats, & then if we win NY we'll take the outright majority!! Please, tune in to what this awesome group is doing 👏🏻 Organized by @samuelschwartz.bsky.social, @davidhogg.bsky.social & more!

Nothing to see here, just Elon trying hard not to be held accountable for his swasticar murdering people.

#NoKingsDay was only the beginning! Start planning for 50501’s next nationwide day of protests - March 4th For Democracy!! 💙🤍❤️‍🩹 Flyer template + more resources for organizing a demonstration: FiftyFifty.one #50501movement #FiftyFiftyOne #March4thForDemocracy #NoKings @polrev.bsky.social

The President who was doing flyovers at Daytona and golfing through his presidency wants an accounting of every federal employee’s work week or they will be fired. This while Elon Musk won’t account for any of his time to Congress.

There’s a crucial election coming up in a battleground state: The liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court is at risk. Elon Musk is not only determined to infiltrate every level of the federal government, he’s coming after our local elections, too. We’re not going to let him get away with it.

This deranged post must be read in concert with new Daily Beast and Yahoo News reports that Trump is a Kremlin agent ("Krasnov") and Hegseth speeding up a political purge of the military. What you are seeing here is fear from Trump and Musk; they need to get to martial law fast.

Wisconsin voters will return to the polls this spring for the 1st major election since the 2024 presidential race. Guess who's in the process of BUYING this SUPREME COURT race! Yep, it's Elon Musk, AGAIN! We can't let this happen. See next post for how to help. 1/3 www.nbcnews.com/politics/ele...

Rep McCormick (Roswell—safe red) can’t gaslight his constituents—but they need to wake up. He won’t do a damn thing to stop Trump. A woman asks about Trump declaring himself “king” & what he will do to stop him. His smugness is off the charts. This is the guy who said hungry kids should get jobs.

Constituents should demand their representatives have town halls in all 50 states. People are starting to voice their anger. They will show up. Hold your Senators and Reps. Accountable. They were elected by the people and they work for us. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory www.mediaite.com/news/town-ha...

DOGE’s expenses have risen above 40 million, with weekly costs now exceeding 10 million. We will release an updated DOGE staff list soon.

“Operation Whirlwind” What’s Happening Now? In 2025, Operation Whirlwind was launched under Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin to investigate alleged threats against employees of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

Elon Musk is buying Brad Schimel to support big corporations, ban abortion with no exceptions, and take Wisconsin backwards. Susan Crawford is NOT for sale! VOTE Aril 1st!

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.

Rep. Jason Crow: “The purge of senior officers at DOD is deeply troubling, but purging JAG officers worries me the most. “JAG officers interpret law for our commanders. They help determine what's lawful and constitutional. “Replacing these military lawyers with Trump loyalists is so dangerous.”

In the depths of the Nebraskan winter, 2400 people came out to listen to Bernie Sanders in Omaha last night. 800 had to be turned away at the door. Over 190,000 tuned into the livestream. There is a movement to be harnessed here. @sanders.senate.gov (📸 Anna Bahr)

This fantastic piece by Stewart Patrick is an excellent summary of the wrecking ball that Trump is taking to the entire international order crafted by Dem & Repub presidents over 80 yrs. Who does this benefit? The Kremlin, for certain. No one else. carnegieendowment.org/emissary/202...

Dear Germany, Please, do not make the same mistake. Many Americans who voted for the far-right are already regretting it—and it’s only been a month. Quickly we see that their agenda doesn’t just hurt the so-called "other"—it harms all of us. #DemVoice1 #DemsUnited #ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue

March 4th AFT is having day of action to try to save education from the Trump hatchet job! Here’s a toolkit of things you can do: www.aft.org/protectourki...
