On the day H@ma$ turns over 2 murdered babies, a murdered elderly peace activist and tried to pass off a dead body as that of the hostage Shiri Bibas, here we're dealing with Nazi salutes from national political figures.

We are the hollow men We are the stuffed men Leaning together Headpiece filled with straw. Alas! Our dried voices, when We whisper together Are quiet and meaningless As wind in dry grass Or rats' feet over broken glass In our dry cellar

Civil Disobedience - This is the way

🔥🔥🔥 Former Vikings punter Chris Kluwe was arrested for civil disobedience after speaking against a MAGA display that the city council of Huntington Beach agreed to put up at the public library…..that’s what’s up….every word👇

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

awwwww shit y'all, the flight attendants have entered the chat 🤘🤘🤘

Trump's lawyers are absolutely flailing in the courts right now

DOGE hits NSF

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

When NWS forecasters can't communicate with Canadian forecasters, things like plane accidents happen.

“We asked why they wouldn’t run the wrap when we clearly met the guidelines if they were allowing the internal ad,” said Virginia Kase Solomón, the president and chief executive of Common Cause. “They said they were not at liberty to give us a reason.”

For everyone that’s like why aren’t people doing anything? There are rallies. We’re calling our reps. We’re not just taking this in stride and that narrative needs to stop.

Former Presidents and leaders from both parties should be sounding the alarm and urging Americans to protest the destruction of democracy.

"Attorneys, he said, 'don’t resign because you disagree with the policies, but because you are being asked to do something you believe is ethically, morally or legally improper'...” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to allow it to fire the head of the Office of Special Counsel, which oversees government whistleblower protections and enforces certain ethics laws.

NEW: Inside a chaotic 48 hours of resignations and rehirings at the agency responsible for maintaining the the nation's stockpile of nuclear weapons. Managers were given 200 characters (not words) to justify why staff shouldn't be fired. www.npr.org/2025/02/14/n...

The 50501 Movement has planned protests at all 50 state capitols and the U.S. Capitol on Presidents’ Day at noon. While mainstream media isn’t covering it, many YouTubers have stepped up to provide coverage.

From an FDA probationary employee: the firings are coming from outside the agency without cause and with zero input from supervisors (as promised.) More firings expected between now and Tuesday. Do not open the termination email before you download your documents and performance evals.

Friends, May we never forget that while negotiations,statements, addresses and the rest of the (undoubtedly important) diplomacy track are happening,exhausted #Ukrainian men &women in military uniform are holding back evil on the frontlines. Without them,there would be no diplomacy track at all.

He's preparing to do something really bad.

Stop and think about what he’s saying here. When he tells you who he is, believe him.

Got it. Any noteworthy black person Is celebrated "because of their race." Any noteworthy white person is celebrated on their merits. That's their logic.

Good morning to this man, and this man only #bbcqt

Make no mistake. This is an all-out attack on health in America. Not only is the EIS vital to controlling infectious disease; it was where a remarkably high fraction of our public health leaders received formative training and experience. www.statnews.com/2025/02/14/t...

Other White House reporters should dare Trump to ban them, too. presswatchers.org/2025/02/how-...

What an international embarrassment our government of frauds and grifters is.

Automatically assuming that a heavily women and non-white workforce is less qualified — even to make coffee — is definitionally racist and sexist. But further, it never occurred to him that the racial/gender make up is because most jobs at Starbucks pay low wages? Let’s see data on management!

Breaking News: The federal order to drop Mayor Eric Adam’s corruption case led three Manhattan prosecutors to resign, the highest-profile resistance so far in President Trump’s Justice Department.

UPDATE The New York Times is now reporting that two other officials have joined Sassoon in resigning. Officials who oversee the Justice Department’s Public Integrity Section: Kevin O. Driscoll and John Keller.

I don’t know why it took me so long to see this, but he’s in gamer mode. He and his DOGE crew are on a World of Warcraft raid, slashing and burning as much of the federal government as he can manage, laughing and trolling the whole time. He’s incapable of empathetically understanding the harm.
