I wonder if someone can fact check this. I deleted my account.

JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz references Tiananmen Square, invoking the theme of standing up to Musk's Teslas to call on American defiance.

Following an overwhelming response to our last town hall, I’m hosting another one this Thursday to hear your concerns about the new Administration’s threats to federal programs you rely on and provide an update on what Democrats are doing to fight back. RSVP: desaulnier.house.gov/town-hall-rsvp.

St. Luigi, please send someone to save her.

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)

ATTN HHS EMPLOYEES: Firing notices are going out. I am in receipt of an email saying they will revoke your access as soon as you read the email that you've been fired. Please download everything you need before you open that email. SHARE FAR & WIDE. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/attn-hhs-e...

This is absolutely insane. Musk’s DOGE crew just straight up *took* $80 million from an NYC bank account!

Well, he *is* a dick

The madness of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

I love this

A petition in Denmark has already garnered over 200,000 signatures seeking the "Denmarkification" of California by purchasing it from the United States in response to President Trump's push to buy Greenland.

Hegseth at NATO summit: "We can talk all we want about values. Values are important. But you can't shoot values."

Ukraine has launched a major offensive inside of Russia. At least 1,000 Russian soldiers have been report captured in the last 24-48 hours, including a North Korean. Russia will be forced to pull troops from other fronts to avoid an bigger defeat. Putin calls the situation, "very difficult."

@elizabeth-warren.bsky.social at work!

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

I know we can’t run around on fire every time Trump says something but he appears to have just announced the new US policy on Gaza which is to take ownership of it, ethnically cleanse it of the 1.8 million Palestinians there and maintain a long term ownership stake as it’s “developed.”

Quoting a friend: Call your senators, congressional representatives, attorneys general, house &senate minority leaders, etc. Demand that Democrats DO SOMETHING: Appoint special counsel to investigate coup by Musk and his thugs. Until that happens, don't cooperate in any way with the tRump admin/GOP.

#poetry Rock Through a Window For several months I've sat, almost every evening, undisturbed, by the same window in the gathering gloom, expecting nothing, wanting it all -

is it good or bad that a billionaire oligarch with close ties to foreign dictators is currently downloading the most sensitive information the us federal government has about its citizens to his own private servers?

@ellenolivia.bsky.social hey sweets! JD here.

Perfectly captured.

Zoom tonight! Be there!

@cnn.com @nytimes.com @washingtonpost.com @latimes.com @sfchronicle.com why are you not covering this #coup?

ALSOBROOKS: You said 'we should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that is given to whites.' Can you please explain what you meant? RFK Jr: There's a series of studies ... ALSOBROOKS: What different schedule would you say I should've recevied?

The FAA is facing its first major aviation disaster in 16 years without a leader because Elon Musk helped push him out. The former FAA administrator stepped down on Jan. 20th after Musk called on him to resign. Musk was angry after the FAA fined SpaceX for failing to get approval for launch changes.

➡️ January 20: FAA director fired ➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen ➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded ➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees ➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years Making America Great Again!

Reporters: Please stop calling things DEI that are not DEI. This is only cementing the propaganda being used to legitimize the dismantling of all types of initiatives that are not DEI as well as legitimize efforts to end civil rights enforcement. Be specific with your language. Be accurate.

#FederalGrants

As this "pause" hits you and your project, institution, workplace, etc: TELL SOMEONE ABOUT IT. Contact your MoC, esp if they're a Dem. Contact a relevant advocacy group. Contact the press, local, regional, movement, trade - and not just for an LtE, for a story. Tell real life stories of harm.

If you’re in the US and you’d like to know what projects and vital services federal grants currently fund in your state, you can search here: www.usaspending.gov And you can find the contact information for your elected representatives here: www.usa.gov/elected-offi... They need to hear from you.

There it is
