ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention? www.sfchronicle.com/outdoors/art...

I’ve been saying for almost a decade now that trump was recruited when he went to Moscow in 1987. He was $10 billion in debt at the time. An easy target. Over the next few years, his debts magically disappeared. Not coincidence. It was a plan. The plan has now come to fruition. Know the enemy.

Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag — traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat — thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

WATCH all 4 parts of Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman's award. We need to heed her words. "Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty"

Then why would you need to get stuff from them?….. aid doesn’t have to be repaid. It’s a grant most of the state was spent here in the US anyway….

Trump’s control over independent agencies tees up test of presidential power : President Trump’s efforts to expand control over independent agencies tees up a new test of presidential power that is already making its way through the courts. This week, the president signed an executive order that…

He "suspected of sharing unauthorized access to information" with Musk's Dogebaggers. Now he's commissioner. New Social Security chief was being investigated when Musk team tapped him www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Elon is literally literally destroying the departments and governing boards that are investigating him… if that is not a conflict of interest what is?

Good they should refuse..

Rep Kevin Hern—scared to say anything against Trump. The obvious—if Zelenskyy were a dictator, Trump would love him like he loves Putin. Glad to see folks in Oklahoma calling him out. Even small town halls matter right now. Don’t let them off the hook. Keep calling, emailing, and confronting them.

If you didn’t see #KamalaHarris’ brief speech at the #NAACPImageAwards, do yourself and your country a solid, go find the clip and get your mind right. #MyPresident

Something, I don’t understand. Why would you purposely have children with a man who has a terrible track record as a father?… a publicly terrible track record. Like why? That isn’t fair to the children… any man that is this terrible to his children is always a bad choice in general.

Elon is fighting to pay $2K in child support for 3 kids, getting sued for custody by another mother of his child, is estranged from another daughter… And this is who the party of “family values” is turning the keys to the country over to?

US officials are reportedly threatening to revoke Starlink access for Ukraine if they don’t give us 50% of their mineral rights. That’s not diplomacy, it’s extortion. We’re also pushing them to kill a UN Resolution that blames Russia for starting the war. Facts matter.

So who’s running against him?…

General Charles Q. Brown Jr., Faithfully and Honorably served the Constitution and The People of the US for 41-years in the USAF. His last posting was as the 21st Chairman of The Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was unjustly fired by the dangerously unqualified SECDEF. I proudly stand with Gen. Brown.

A new website created by about a dozen federal employees, called “We the Builders,” aims to be a secure outlet for government workers to share stories about how their workplaces are being impacted by DOGE, and a place to explain the real-world impact of its access to government tech systems.

This is a wild, WILD situation. The President is at least allowing, licensing these emails though clearly not directing them. Meanwhile parts of the uniformed military are directing civilians within DOD to ignore them. Same at State and according to Dilanian FBI. But DOJ is saying do what the ...

Ummm 🤨 what…….. he does know a part of this involve the civil war. And went to the US dollar was worth basically nothing…. Because you know Civil War.🤦🏻‍♀️😵‍💫🤦🏻‍♀️😵‍💫 of course he doesn’t know that what am I thinking?

Also, this is a *perfect example* of the kind of bureaucratic layer that makes actually doing things in government sometimes hard! Do you a VA nurse spending her time providing health care or writing Elon an email about “What I Did Last Week”?

Yeah, so leaders like this are really, really rare.. and they create loyalty. I guarantee there are more airman loyal to him than. Trump.. This is a really dumb idea. Trump should not be firing somebody like this.. people like this or who you as your ally.

By voting for him you have declared how little we have in common, how small our shared ground of agreement is, and how different the visions of this nation we share. And as much as it grieves me, I’m simply choosing to believe you. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/to-the-peo...

Many are asking what should we do now? “We use our power, organize, mobilize, educate…the American story will not be written by who occupies the White House or by the wealthiest among us…it will be written by you, by ‘we the people.’” -fmr VP Kamala Harris receiving the NAACP Chairman’s Award.

How many fucking times do he have to show you who he is?. seriously how many goddamn times? How did you not see this coming from 3000 miles away? I did. Honestly expected this the first time around.

So what’s really funny about this to me.. personally is there using images that would’ve represented Julius Caesar specifically.. who yes overthrow the democracy of Rome, but also.. was stabbed in the back on the floor of the Senate by his own party.. not advocating for that to happen to anybody

Actually, this might not be such a bad idea! The government is most likely going to shut down anyway, sooo? 🤷🏻‍♀️

@704afge.bsky.social hey, i’m not a member. I’m not even a federal worker, but I think maybe the union should consider voting to strike.. if a federal worker strike, it will literally drop the country to its knees, and this is a golden opportunity.

In 2020, the military was adamant about refusing to get involved in the election. That's why Trump hates General Mark Milley so much. Now, Trump is transforming the military into one that will back him up in 2029. We need to figure out how to prepare for that eventuality.

Ok, so hear me out. I’m not a federal worker, but.. this would be a golden opportunity for the entirety of the federal workforce to go on strike.. all of them could send letters saying that they were striking. literally dropped the government to its knees…

Yep.. 🙄 but he’s totally not a Nazi… even though he walks like a nazi he talks like a nazi. He acts like a Nazi posts like a Nazi… he’s totally 1000% not a Nazi 😵‍💫🤨

🙄 so we know Pete’s under his skin.. he only shot the shit like this about people he’s afraid of.

Pete Buttigieg accomplished a lot for the people on his watch at USDOT. Check it out before Trump deletes it.⤵️ www.transportation.gov/briefing-roo...

MVP Harris being honored - and so deservingly - with the Chairman's Award at the NAACP Image Awards. "This chapter will be written not simply by whoever occupies the oval office, nor by the wealthiest among us, the American story will be written be written by you, written by us, by We the People."

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.

MVP gave the most eloquent speech just now on NAACP awards. 🙏🏽 Lawd, I miss her so very much.

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.

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

OK, why is the death con system backwards??? Actually asking her why is five less bad than one? Why does it scale down and not up? Explain.
