I stand with the penguins of Heard and McDonald Islands!

With all the big law firms selling their souls to whatever is worse than the devil (let’s be honest, Luci knows how to get down), it’s encouraging to hear that some DoJ lawyers are fighting back by basically telling their bosses to fuck off and filing accurate filings. Keep at it, friends!

I’m buying this guy another drink. He’s earned it. I really feel for him. He started in the grad program in 2015 (the good old days).

Some more takeaways: -there are pockets of resistance from within the DoJ that are actively trying to keep their jobs and make sure this administration’s goals are hampered -the lawyers actually believing in this bullshit are all morons (so that bodes well) -mental health is real low

Okay so this feels like being added to the office Signal chat. Here are the key takeaways thus far: -all of the lawyers in his office die inside anytime they have to file something -a lot of the damning filings were changed by the lawyers after review by higher ups so that they would be true.

Sitting in an airport bar and there is a DoJ lawyer just POURING out his soul at this bar. NGL I live for the drama so I’ve bought him three tequila shots. Morale is not high in his office.

Between @booker.senate.gov brilliant display of leadership and Wisconsin’s rejection of he who shall not be named, I am just brimming with pride for one day. The work continues but wars are won one battle at a time.

Alright so which senator is going to stand up and continue @booker.senate.gov amazing work tomorrow? I want to see back to back to back to back senators doing the same thing.

Remember that this is where his discussions with El Salvador began. The migrant detentions there are the dry run. He wants to ship U.S. prisoners to El Salvador.We cannot sleepwalk through this.

I’ve started calling Trump Pt 2 “The Infomercial Presidency.” It’s just so pathetic.

Am I the only one who finds the phrase “walking my 3 old daughter” weird? Please tell me if I’m wrong.

I can feel myself losing brain cells the longer I spend time in this Fox News echo chamber. I cannot wait for my vacation in two weeks. A 20 day break is definitely in order. I’m getting to the point where Laura Ingraham’s voice is making me feel violent.

Attention Americans: You must see this video and share it with friends and family! We are being led by a fool, a traitor & an autocrat. Attention Democratic lawmakers: This needs to be your messaging as well! My favorite line: "In American history, the defenders of freedom have always prevailed!"

Some Democratic member of Congress should propose a bill saying that a POTUS may golf at government expense no more than, say, once every 14 days, and must reimburse the Treasury for anything beyond that.

Transgenic means that genes from 1 organism have been put into another. We make transgenic mice to understand how genes influence biological processes. We make transgenic plants to make them more nutrient rich. We make transgenic bacteria so they make medicine for us. It's wide-ranging & v. useful.

This is next level! 💥

As a professor of English, allow me to try, humbly and with the proper respect, to offer an appropriate response to the President’s address: Fuck you, you fucked-up fuck, and fuck all the fuckers who willingly fuck with you, especially. You can all fuck all the way off, and then fuck off some more.

I’ve decided that if women are no longer allowed to have careers and expected to stay at home, I’m bringing back aspics. I encourage others to join in this pledge with me. #resistance

love this @rokhanna.bsky.social We need more proposals like this that co-opt the chaos Please share off line as well !!!

HITTING THE DOCKET: Judge Amy Berman Jackson rules that Trump illegally fired Hampton Dellinger, the Special Counsel of the Office of Special Counsel. ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company. It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create. They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms. I’m happy to invest and/or help

Times Square 🇺🇸🇺🇦✊

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

Yep. "Accept humiliation and put your faith in Trump siding with you over Russia" would've been a terrible mistake for Zelensky, and he correctly reasoned that pushing back on Trump's nonsense would be received as signals of strength by the EU and by Russia.

I’ve been suggesting on TV and podcasts—without actual evidence(!)—that it may turn out that DOJ will wind up not having enough lawyers to defend all the lawsuits challenging this administration’s illegal conduct. Turns out it seems already to be true. 👉

👀 Looking for the next action to take to #resist ? 👊🏽 Me too. It seems March will be full of organized #protest 🇺🇦 #slavaukraini 💰 BTW: Today's economic blackout was a win. Keep going!!!

Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦

“European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said: ‘Today, it became clear that the free world needs a new leader. It’s up to us, Europeans, to take this challenge.’”

The first step in solving any problem is recognizing there is one - America is not the greatest country in the world anymore. #resist

"History will remember this day— when an American President and Vice President abandoned all we stand for."

Trump and Vance ran a televised scam today. What all America saw was a premeditated hoax to justify cutting off aid to Ukraine. Nothing Zelenskyy did was offensive or disrespectful—but that was the line Trump and Vance had clearly decided to use beforehand to justify what they and Putin wanted.

When you've lost Karl Rove.

Does anyone know when Marco Rubio underwent a lobotomy?

If Trump were given the opportunity to save the United States at the expense of his position, does anyone actually think he would? And that is the difference between him and Zelenskyy. Zelenskyy has been holding his country against Russia with his bare hands. Slava Ukraini! ✊🏼🇺🇦

Well unsurprisingly, the Fox News propaganda machine is describing those aligned with Ukraine as “pro-war.” ✊🏼🇺🇦

I’d also like to thank my mom’s priest for the massive assist. Thanks to his homilies, my mom seems to now have a new approach to trans rights & DEI. I would have preferred that all of this soul searching happened before November 5th but I’m happy they’re joining the resistance. #resist

I am filled with a newfound hope that people like my parents can and may be coming around. This was this morning’s Wall Street Journal. Annotations courtesy of my dad. Ukraine seems to be the starting point for my parents’ skepticism with this regime. It’s trickled into DOGE & the budget. #resist

Apparently the correct response to my mom’s question, “who radicalized you” was not “you when you sent me to 15 years of Catholic school and church where I learned Jesus loves everyone & calls us to care for our fellow humans.” On the plus side, plenty of quiet time to get my studying done. #resist

Okay but seriously, Trump basically put Belle Gibson in charge of Health and Human Services. Any day now I’m waiting for guidance to come out that the new protocol for cancer treatment is going to be a juice only diet and five coffee enemas a day. #applecidervinegar #resist #rfkjr #quack
