“Operation Whirlwind” What’s Happening Now? In 2025, Operation Whirlwind was launched under Interim U.S. Attorney Ed Martin to investigate alleged threats against employees of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

This clip really should be viewed in full. Trump in full mob boss mode, threatening not only to withhold funds from a governor's state but to ruin her personally. This is the fascist threat so many have screamed about for years. Long past time to take him literally. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

helluva thread from the hellsite about the comically bad “savings” doge claims to have found (sorry for the weirdly sized screenshots, I had to squeeze everything into only 4 of them)

If someone makes art, or food, or crafts, or whatever that you really like and that brings you comfort and happiness these days, _tell them_. They're probably wondering if it's worth doing at all.

Imagine believing that Trump and Musk cared about “peace and prosperity”…

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

The alleged White House memo that appeared to ban the use of the word "felon" on White House grounds appears to be false, and I have taken down the post. Apologies to all, including the convicted felon.

The Trump Administration has done more damage to the United States, our institutions, our interests, our standing in the world, the world order we have fought and sacrificed for a century to establish in the past four weeks than all the enemies of the US managed to inflict during the past 250 years.

Not that anyone cares but a bunch of senior doj officials resigning over a corrupt instruction to drop a case was what triggered the Nixon impeachment, and in the Trump era it's just the 2pm scandal of a random Thursday and every day now has ~3 such scandals that would have ended any prior admin

Folks: I am NOT affiliated with the group that is using my name to support an economic boycott. Please spread this post, if you would.

We are calling for a nationwide and international boycott of all Elon Musk-related products and services. Sell your Tesla shares, avoid buying Tesla vehicles, cancel Starlink, and delete your X accounts.

It's getting tiring to keep saying this, but for posterity's sake I will: any previous administration would have been instantly sunk by this. Before January 20, 2017, this would have been the most stunning corruption scandal in the history of the American justice system. Now, it's...a Thursday.
