1. I'm hearing lots of reports that tons of nonprofits beyond RAINN and NCMEC are obeying in advance and sacrificing trans people to please the Nazi administration. But I need your help to find the nonprofits. Here's how you can help🧵 - Boost this thread - Find some local non profits..(cont'd)⬇️

"For no reason" For no fucking reason. No dumbfucks, for about 12 million reasons, half of them members of his favorite scapegoat race. PS: we also hate Stalin, but TFG is not emulating him, at least not yet.

Stephen Miller explodes trying to defend DOGE. “When faced with even the simplest questions about DOGE, Donald Trump’s former immigration ghoul couldn’t keep his cool long enough to make it through an interview on CNN.” newrepublic.com/post/191665/...

Look. I'm not saying that we should shut this country down with a general strike. I'm just saying that we could.

"They are clearly worried enough to gather this data behind the scenes But not enough to inform the public." because if they are loud, they'll be shut down and then nobody can track the data, at least that's my expectation.

This is horseshit. If you fear protests will lead to martial law then you already live under martial law — and you’re the one who declared it. Plus, it *won’t* lead to a declaration of martial law and the fear misconstrues the nature of the threats we face.

I maxed out my credit card, emptied my savings account, and took out a loan to move from Alabama to Bethesda, MD. I don’t even qualify for unemployment since I’ve only worked at NIH for a month. I will be financially and medically devastated. Seeking suggestions for anywhere that’s hiring!!

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…

Anyway here's how it played in the press last time anything went this far, just for reference

It's getting tiring to keep saying this, but for posterity's sake I will: any previous administration would have been instantly sunk by this. Before January 20, 2017, this would have been the most stunning corruption scandal in the history of the American justice system. Now, it's...a Thursday.

I’m grateful to see over 350 Jewish rabbis, celebrities, and other leaders raising their voices against the Trump-Netanyahu plan to ethnically cleanse Gaza with this full page ad in The New York Times. To join them, go to SayNoToEthnicCleansing.org
