This gets my vote for tweet/post of the year. This is a RED ALERT post. This is exactly why he’s doing it.

"The reclassification exposes these employees to termination without due process, said U.S. Representative Don Beyer... NSF unilaterally stripped permanent status from both union and non-union workers, including executives, without notification." More on this here: beyer.house.gov/news/documen...

This is how you do it. Other news agencies like Axios and CBS, stop rolling over! Grow a spine, stand up straight and fight!

It’s just a matter of time until Social Security recipients have to start telling Elon Musk what we did last week in order to keep getting the monthly payments that are owed to us.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Vaccines are so effective they have practically eradicated some of the worst diseases, from rabies to polio and smallpox—a fact that has possibly fooled some into believing that the viruses and their complications aren’t a significant threat for the average, health-conscious individual.

This will go down as the Friday Night Massacre of the Military. First the Chairman of the JCS and now Adm. Franchetti, the first woman to become a member of the JCS. Next up the Air Force’s No. 2 officer & the top JAGs for each service. Martial law is coming. breakingdefense.com/2025/02/trum...

“Many” is understating this. I’d say most public figures pursue it.

If I had to respond to an email as a federal employee asking me what I did at work last week, I'd make sure to list all the duties I had to absorb because of mass illegal firings, followed by a description of what the EPA's Walter Peck did in Ghostbusters.

Sending an email to employees asking them to list five things they did that week is a classic move from a manager who has no idea how to manage

If members of Congress—like Rep. Grothman —are this clueless about what the man who is dismantling our government is saying and promising, they don’t deserve to keep their jobs! This woman is in his face, begging him to wake TF up—and he just walks off. Pathetic.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Amen to that.

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

Get. Him. Out. Of. Our. Government.

Sharing more townhall videos today because they’re giving me hope. THIS is good trouble! Who is this man? I want to shake his hand and buy him a drink.

DOGE staffer Edward “Big Balls” Coristine is the grandson of Valery Martynov - a “former” KGB spy. That’s right, one of Elon Musk’s young cyber criminals — related to a former KGB spy, and who seemingly did not have to undergo a background check — now has unprecedented access to…

Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

I am so sick and tired of being confidently assured that our universities are Marxist indocrination centers by people who have never been to university

Musk & DOGE are now f*cking with the Social Security Administration. 🚨 IMPORTANT: If you or a loved one experience delayed SS payments or difficulty accessing SSDI services, CALL THE PEOPLE’S HOTLINE! Tell your story. ☎️ 503-212-4600 ☎️ Pass it on:

He nails it.

FUN FACT: maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority maga is the minority AND The resistance is the MAJORITY! We will defeat you as your only plan is destroying our country while lining your pockets. Keep flooding the zone. We’re watching & we will win!!

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

No, but if you’re looking for one, I am aware of a guy you work with that was indicted four times and convicted of thirty-four felonies.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

FFS! 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙮 are firing National Park Service EMTs There will be no one to attend to you if you get attacked by wildlife, fall while climbing/hiking, have a skiing incident, are drowning, break a leg/arm/your neck, etc Alex Wilds is one such federal employee. Read what he's saying

VARNEY: The administration said the worst of the worst would be held in Gitmo. But there's an article in the Post saying the families members of those detained say they're being falsely branded as members of Tren de Aragua. HOMAN: That's the Washington Post ... no one is off the table

I'm not celebrating President's Day until 2029 at the earliest

✅ DEI Employer of the Day™ DSW "We believe in diversity, equity, and inclusion [DEI], and call on our associates, customers, and communities to hold us accountable to showing it every day." The NAACP Black Consumer Advisory encourages consumers to 'buy-in' on companies that back their values.

Happy Presidents' Day to the 44 presidents who never tried to become a fascist dictator.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

Famous Authoritarian Dictator Quotes!

The resignations from New York City’s government are eviscerating the DOJ‘s rationale for dismissing the criminal case against Adams.

Happy President's Day from Union Square in NYC, which is filled with protesters preparing for a march down Broadway This picture is a fraction of the people in the park, and many people have already started marching It's a beautiful day. Let's do this 🧵

It’s a C O U P Keep reposting this

The #1 reported reason people avoid doctor’s appointments is because they’re afraid of finding out they have a serious illness. If you have that fear, that’s normal and you’re not alone. Also remember, there is basically no serious illness that isn’t less serious if you catch it sooner.

Wow, this is outrageous! DOGE claims they found fraud where 150 year olds were receiving Social Security! What a joke these incompetent, inexperienced folks running this department are! #BlueCrew #BlueCircleFamily🌈🦋 #BluePetPatrol💙🐾 #ProudBlue #Resist #TruthWarriors #antitrump #antimaga

This is an old video, but I will always love this wonderful judge at an AKC dog show, who noticed an Autistic girl in the audience, and invited her to show her stuffed puppy... just like the real dogs 🐾💗 📽️coleman

The flying public needs answers. How many FAA personnel were just fired? What positions? And why?
