I've been seeing posts about the latest WP/Ipsos poll which shows a slight downturn of Trump's popularity. The comprehensive results are not good, folks. And there are more recent, quality polls. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/approv...

Nope.

Hey - Elroy wants to know what we got done this week. #AltGov added some new accounts, has been interviewed by multiple outlets, organized some upcoming actions, & dispelled his own lies about the astronauts on ISS. Comment what you did to #Resist. #WhatDidYouDoElon

I can’t explain it but after seeing Musk tweaked out and dorked up at CPAC, I keep thinking of this ATHF character m.youtube.com/watch?v=PupB...

I really didn’t think I would spend my golden years fighting fascism… Did you?!

Fed workers have received emails asking them “What did you do last week?" Text: “Please reply to this email with approx. 5 bullets of what you accomplished last week and cc your manager. Please do not send any classified information, links, or attachments. Deadline is this Monday at 11:59pmEST.”

I've seen it from a couple of agencies already. Sent from an "HR" OPM address. The spam-ass subject line is "What did you do last week?"

C-PAC is a cult gathering, not a convention! This “Third Term Project” poster at CPAC is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. The same people who were screaming about “the deep state” are now openly fantasizing about a dictator-for-life.

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

Wow! Congrats to Bluesky for passing the milestone of 32 MILLION users. Spread the word!! 💙🦋 bsky-users.theo.io

It shouldn’t be considered an act of bravery to stand up for what we already fought for.

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

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.

In case you missed it, the Trump administration is making an end run around the court order that unfroze NIH spending: by not allowing NIH to place notices in the Federal Register, it has stopped them from holding any grant evaluation meetings. Basically, there’s no way to evaluate grants right now.

When this movie was first released, I thought this bit was a little too on the nose. I’ve come to appreciate it a lot more ever since.

This is absolutely not cheating! It’s not inherently more virtuous to do your own laundry when you have an alternative that fits your life and budget. There are many ways to make sure household tasks get done, and outsourcing is a completely acceptable and logical solution.

A MUST-SEE‼️ The PayPal Mafia—Musk, Thiel, Sacks, and Botha—have ties to apartheid South Africa & a hand in US policy and the election. • Elon Musk – Unelected co-president, dismantling the government for his own gain. FUN FACT: His grandfather wanted to scrap democracy for technocrat rule. 🧵

King Trump vows to shutter the @USPS and have Amazon handle all US. In return, shit-eater @JeffBezos bends the knee & begs to be the world’s first trillionaire. King Musk is furious as he wants to be the first to reach that milestone. We are at a standstill. More to come.

Here’s the email everyone is getting from OPM. Embarrassing stuff.

I can already tell its going to be a bit annoying to convince DC people because elites so quickly reject impeachment but I've probably had 100 conversations about it at this point and no one seriously disputes anything I say.

Time for impeachment, what are you all waiting for?

#F**kYourExecutiveOrders 🤮

Merz has the audacity to ask where anti-fascists were when CDU member Lübcke was assassinated by a Nazi - an assassination prompted by Lübcke’s actual embrace and support of welcoming of migrants in Germany >>

#FailCaeser

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.
