Perhaps some of our fired government workers can find good Canadian jobs?? emploisfp-psjobs.cfp-psc.gc.ca/psrs-srfp/ap...

While Elon Musk and his underlings demand budget cuts and layoffs across the federal government, funding for their agency — the Department of Government Efficiency — has soared to nearly $40 million, ProPublica found in a review of Office of Management and Budget records.

Tonight I sent a letter to Commerce Secretary Lutnick, urging him to exempt NWS from the federal hiring freeze due to the critical role the agency plays in public safety and supporting the economy, (1/2)

Lol this is why my ELON MUSK Act is so important.

I just voted NO to advance Senate Republican's pro-billionaire, anti-middle class budget blueprint. They want to let Elon cut $1 trillion this year alone—those cuts are coming out of SNAP, Medicaid, VA benefits, & more. Money out of YOUR pocket so BILLIONAIRES get more tax breaks.

Truth!! 👏

🎶 🎵 The Shady Bunch Here’s the story of some sketchy coders, Messing up the world with hairbrained schemes. They were clueless, and they were reckless, Wrecking all, just to fulfill Musk’s evil dreams. The Shady Bunch, the Shady Bunch, That’s the way they became the Shady Bunch. 🎵 🎶

If you’ve been directly impacted by the Trump purge of government workers or his Executive Orders, please DM me. I’d like to highlight your story and also see if there are folks in your community that can provide help, if you’re in need. We’ve got to take care of each other.

As funding that families count on remains frozen, the American people need to know who wrote the disastrous memo—which reeks of Project 2025. Ranking Member Senator Jeff Merkley is demanding answers and oversight. www.budget.senate.gov/ranking-memb...

The measles outbreak is spreading. In Gains Co., Tx. 1 in 5 ppl there do not have the MRI ( measles, mumps rubella) vaccine. Current 48 cases are mostly children. All the cases are unvaccinated ppl. Now cases in New Mexico. Can lead to blindness, pneumonia, swelling of brain, death.

Just for you #Canada 🇨🇦

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: I’ll say this again: download all your SF-50s, performance evals, and your eOPF. Now. Print hard copies. And make sure you file an informal grievance with your supervisor within 15 days of any adverse action. Here is a template: www.muellershewrote.com/p/informal-g...

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Here’s what Democrats did today (February 13):

Russian state TV celebrates Trump 'sawing through the western world'

At a time of massive income & wealth inequality, Republicans in Congress just introduced a budget to provide trillions in tax breaks to the wealthy, paid for by massive cuts to Medicaid that will throw millions of kids off health care & seniors out of nursing homes. Unacceptable.

House GOP Leadership just announced they want to cut at least $880 Billion from Medicaid. This webinar covers how to meet with the office of a Senator or Congressperson to advocate for Medicaid. These meetings are a way to take your advocacy to the next level, and are incredibly important.

We need every damn journalist and Democrat shouting this out now. President Musk is abandoning patriots. @msnbc.com @joyannreid.bsky.social @kylec.bsky.social @democrats-judiciary.house.gov @davidhogg.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov

Thank you!!! Couldn't find him! Awesome 👍

House Republicans have released their proposed budget. It’s as bad as I imagined. It puts a giant bullseye on health care coverage, while giving at least $4 *TRILLION* in tax breaks to billionaires and corporations. The American people need to know the stakes—and how Democrats are pushing back.

Can someone contact Kyle Clark News and ask him to come over here? I don't have threads anymore and I miss him. #kyleclarknews

Elon Musk’s staffers are still attempting to manipulate the Treasury payment system to halt the flow of funds following their recent losses. Reminder: U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly has restricted DOGE’s read-only access. No one is above the law.

DNC Chair Ken Martin: It’s only been three weeks, and Elon Musk has already shown that he’s the worst president the U.S. has ever had...

Yes!!

A judge ordered the Trump administration to restore federal funding it had tried to freeze

www.nbcnews.com/politics/pol... The order would allow exceptions for two special government employees at the Treasury ... "provided that such access to payment records will be 'read only.'” What the hell are “special government employees”?

Thank you for this. I don't know why we are having to beg our congresspeople to do something. Keep poking them.

Amen.

Our team has launched a tracker account for flights in and out of the US naval base and detention camp at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. The tracker is based on open data from ADS-B signals. Check it out here @gtmowatch.bsky.social

Maybe someone should release it for him.
