“Speak up, speak out, get in the way. Get in good trouble, necessary trouble, and help redeem the soul of America.” – John Lewis

Below is a copy of the body of the letter I just sent to my representative @houlahan.house.gov regarding her appalling vote to censure @algreen.house.gov. To sign it yourself using @resist.bot text SIGN PJKPVE to 50409. Please feel free to use my words as a template to write your own representative.

Shame on these dems. We need more lawmakers to follow in Rep. Al Green’s lead. SHUT. IT. DOWN. #50501movement #PeoplesMovement #FiftyFiftyOne #ImpeachTrump #NoKings @polrev.bsky.social

NEWS: Big preliminary injunction from Judge John McConnell in the multistate lawsuit against the OMB grants/loans freeze. "The Executive’s categorical freeze of appropriated and obligated funds fundamentally undermines the distinct constitutional roles of each branch of our government."

Some good news for a change

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

It’s been a long day, but in short, bullies ain’t shit! I don’t care what title you hold! This isn’t some long gone reality tv show or failed casino; it is war! How dare a draft dodging dumb dupe humiliate an ally & berate a brave man who has actually been on a battlefield for his people?!

Today, a reporter from the Russian state news agency TASS gained unauthorized access to the Oval Office. How does one gain unauthorized access to the Oval Office? Meanwhile, AP and Reuters were blocked.

These paws won't be buying anything.

NOAA is an absolute mess, and it’ll be worse tomorrow. Please help us. There have already been over 1,000 terminations. It’s not just layoffs—Elon Musk and his staffers are trying to completely dismantle us. Today, there were tons of firings, and more are coming tomorrow.

I don't delve into research much anymore, but I am enjoying seeing what's up with AI research (particularly NLP and KR).

The FAA is close to canceling a $2.4 billion contract with Verizon to overhaul the communications system that serves as the backbone of the nation’s air traffic control and is awarding the work to Musk’s Starlink. Follow the money and see where it goes.

More of this please, preferably every day from every elected official who believes that much of what is going on right now in the federal government is illegal and unconstitutional. @houlahan.house.gov @fetterman.senate.gov

More elected officials need to be saying this loudly every day. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/february-2...

Today's encouragement robertreich.substack.com/p/ten-reason...

The DHS will use polygraphs to question employees about communications with the media or nonprofit organizations in an effort to root out members of the resistance.

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance. Democracy requires your courage.

Elon Musk is making wild claims that #DOGE has found evidence of massive Social Security fraud.... The reality is that Musk's young engineers don't seem to be able to understand COBOL databases while Musk is misrepresenting the Social Security data www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

The Washington Post (and Jeff Bezos) doesn't want you to see this. www.commoncause.org/articles/jef...

Fascism isn’t coming to America, it’s already here. We are long past the warnings of an approaching existential threat looming on the distant horizon of our story, which many of us spent the past decade imploring people not to ignore. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/fascism-is...

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

Is @houlahan.house.gov paying attention?

A coalition of news organizations said in a court filing that video exhibits from a Jan. 6 riot case had "disappeared" from a government platform that provided access to evidence used in court.

🦎1 On this date, February 11, 1812, a political monster, the Gerrymander, was born in the Massachusetts State House. Governor Elbridge Gerry signed a bill that created oddly-shaped voting districts, designed to produce a specific outcome. www.massmoments.org/moment-detai...

#SuperBowlSunday! It's okay to root for your favorite team. It's also okay to root for your preferred party. It's NOT okay to rig the game so your team or party wins. In #redistricting that's called #gerrymandering. It's cheating, no matter who does it. tinyurl.com/Petitiontoen...

This is what amounts to an ILLEGAL & indiscriminate funding cut for research centers everywhere. It will mean shuttering labs across the country, layoffs in red & blue states, and derailing lifesaving research on everything from cancer to opioid addiction. We all need to speak out to save lives.
