Saturday screenprinting

Hilarious. After the DOGErs set up the new government-wide all employee email system in late January OPM, where it is housed, sent out an advisory which states explicitly that no employee ever has to respond to any of the emails. See 4.2 and 4.3. www.opm.gov/media/kfpozk...

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

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)
