The DEI part is shameful, of course, but he’s banking on the media stopping there and not evaluating why he would want to fire decorated leaders and fire JAGs on a Friday evening. I don’t believe I’m overstepping when I say martial law is the plan.

This sounds like a weird fight-wing talking point…? If a member of your closest advisors does a Nazi salute on video, I think this is fair game.

❤️ For now, as much as any of us is.

As is the ritual of setting the house on fire, gunning a bottle of vodka, and posting on Bluesky? ‘Cause that’s all I’ve got right now.

Bravery is one of my core values, and if it’s time to test that, so be it

Wellness FARMS, like the beautiful place the family sent the puppy who wouldn’t stop piddling on the rug.

This is dangerously close(r) to an Enabling Act.

‘90s me would never, ever believe I ever would agree with so many things you say, but here we are! Keep speaking out, Bill!

This is the guy. I love Pete, but he talks like a D.

We have to stop accepting their message at face value: it’s a lie. DOGE has nothing to do with fraud waste, or abuse in our government. It’s a money and data grab for the ultra-wealthy! We all know this, so we MUST stop responding as though they mean what they say. GO ON THE OFFENSIVE!!!!

I feel like I’m grasping for any information I can all the time, trying to find glimmers of hope.

No worries! I had just done a deeper dive to explain it to a friend and so I actually knew some details for once ;). It definitely seemed more on the merits of the particular case than a politically based ruling, which is… something?

Wellll, not quite that simple. They couldn’t prove “irreparable harm” because they didn’t know what he had harmed! Crazy Catch-22. Next tactic?

Well, not so much that I’m reading the order correctly as that I’m interpreting the clusterfuck correctly.

This is cold comfort, but history will not remember them kindly.

Just to clarify, I’m doing stuff (calls, boycotts, donations, etc etc etc), but it’s slow work, and he already likely has everything he wanted to get.

God, I hate feeling this fucking helpless

Lies, semantics. How can we fucking stop this, even though he’s already got the data. In a world that makes sense, he would be arrested!
comment in response to post
I seriously wish someone would go down there and *physically* confront him. He doesn’t even have full clearance! Can’t Congresspeople get in the buildings?!

I hope she’s armed to defend herself…and I can’t believe I have to say this.

This is gonna be great when my mom and my partner’s mom have to move in with us in our already-too-small house, and we are all broke from trying to pay for their sustenance and healthcare. I feel like all our futures are on the line.

Every day he’s there, he takes more data from the American people. Can we sue for damages? How can we get him OUT?!

Hard same.
