See Germany, 1934.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

I went slumming on X for a bit. There’s group with accounting expertise that are investigating DOGE’s fraud claims. Misrepresentation of ‘fraud’ findings. More than once the statement was made that DOGE,rather than finding fraud,is committing it.

A defining policy battle is about to come to a head in this country. The Republican budget will force everyone - especially Congress and the White House - to make plain whether they are prepared to harm the rest of us in order to fund tax cuts for the wealthiest.

FOX NEWS: You are against people bringing in eggs that have not been-- I mean, we have the USDA for a reason. These could be contaminated and bring illnesses in. GALLEGO: Absolutely. This is why we shouldn't be firing USDA inspectors that are actually doing oversight over avian flu

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

Musk, calling for a “wholesale removal of regulations”, sends his child soldiers to attack government stabilizing the entire US system. Regulations, though endlessly maligned by corporate and oligarchic propaganda, are all that protect us from multiple disasters. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The DoD firings are going to be... interesting. The DoD civilians are the ones who actually keep the major functions on every base up and running. The military personnel move around so much, there's no continuity without the DoD civilians.

This is what I was talking about last week.

Looking to talk with federal employees with disabilities who were terminated this weekend, especially folks hired through Schedule A or disabled veterans. Please boost! #disability #journorequest

Justice Connection, an organization that supports DOJ employees facing "unprecedented attacks," made public an open letter praising prosecutors who resigned or whose jobs were threatened over the Eric Adams case. It was signed by more than 850 ex-federal prosecutors. Among the signers: Jack Smith.

Doge and Trump/Elon are utterly inept. Oh yeah-and they lie. Constantly. #ProudBlue

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back? Oh, we don't know how to.' I don't know how anyone can look at this administration & feel a semblance of confidence"

Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

Wow

Today in Carson City, NV

This is the way… “The elected officials in Washington have to stop protesting in Washington. They have to go back to their districts…show the consequences…show the school that isn’t operating…they have to make it real.” With social media, word will spread to neighboring districts—even red ones.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

The president does not have the authority to unilaterally remove a federal agency, without Congressional approval. Trump's actions are unconstitutional and illegal. So far, the state AG's and lower courts have held the line.

Who’s the deep state now? This is Saturday Night Massacre level shit—Manhattan’s top federal prosecutor and five other senior officials resigned Thursday rather than obey a Justice Department order to drop corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams.

Note to NY elected officials: when you call for Adams to resign, please clarify whether or not you are also calling on Gov. Kathy Hochul to remove him from office is he does not.

I’m going to continue to work until my computer access is revoked,” Lennox said. “Then I’m going to volunteer. I’m going to keep working as best I can to support the veterans. That’s what I’m here for.” taskandpurpose.com/news/veteran...

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...

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

👀 DOJ acknowledges making two significant errors during a court hearing last week on efforts to dismantle USAID 1) It said only 500 employees had been placed on leave. Actual number was 2,140. 2) Said only future contracts were stopped. Existing contracts were also stopped.

I don't care about what we call bodies of water. I don't care about the names of forts. I don't care about plastic straws. I care about fair elections. I care about the Constitution. I care about Rule of Law. Stay laser focused on these three things. Ignore the noise.

"Persons who make private determinations of the law and refuse to obey an order generally risk criminal contempt even if the order is ultimately ruled incorrect." --SCOTUS (1975)

Dear media, No, Trump isn’t “signaling” that he “might” ignore the courts. He. Is. Ignoring. The. Fucking. Courts. The end. Do your damn job.

Trump fires Office of Government Ethics chief: President Trump has fired the director of the Office of Government Ethics, the agency announced Monday. The office posted on its website that it had been notified Trump was removing David Huitema, who had been nominated by President Biden. He was…

I’m told employees in the USDA’s civil rights office were put on administrative leave in the last couple days.

I just lost my job, along with most of my coworkers, due to the illegal grant freeze. I worked at an organization that -helped veterans who have lost a limb -Assisted elderly and disabled people -Helped hospitals better treat people who have lost limbs

It's getting a little North Korean around here.

Holy shit this cartoon.

Déjà vu all over again.

True.

Finally got my hands on @meredithdclark.bsky.social 's newest baby “We Tried to Tell Y’all: Black Twitter and the Rise of Digital Counternarratives” Thank you for telling the REAL story of Black Twitter & for always including my own contributions. Go get a copy!

This is the most important story in the United States right now. www.wired.com/story/treasu...

I don’t know much but I do know the richest man in the world isn’t trying to access your financial information in order to help you out.

SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.

reporting that omits or downplays the perfect record of TRO's in stopping Musk-Trump is irresponsible and wrong. DO BETTER. enjoined: fork in road, treasury access, FBI name collection, birthright citizenship, spending freeze.
