📌It’s about time ALL our retired military flag officers started showing some damn leadership by speaking out against this authoritarian attack on our nation. You know damn well that what is happening right now is WRONG.

Worst. Episode. EVER.

🦬 Stories like this give us hope. But we will not rest until ALL 2,300 DOI employees who have unlawfully been terminated are re-instated. ✊ #DOIResists

There’s something happening in this country.

A great read.

Important to remind Congress everyday of facts: 1. POTUS immunity to break law, doesn't make it legal. He is still breaking the law. 2. Immunity is only protects against criminal charges in court system. 3. Impeachment is outside this, it's political, and Congress has duty to uphold Constitution.

I missed this a few days ago. Cruelty is the point. #resist

‼️Journalists - pick this up‼️ “United States Marine Corps veteran, VA disability rating, federal probationary employee that was 6 days away from end of probation, with an Outstanding Performance Review rating…I was illegally terminated.” old.reddit.com/r/fednews/co...

The party of absolute trash.

Consider... tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of people are losing their government jobs. Jobs that may have taken up to a year to secure. They bought homes, cars, started families. No income now to make payments or feed babies. How does that help our economy?

On this day, (Fri) Feb 21 in 1924 Thelma Estrin was born. She was an American computer scientist and engineer who did pioneering work in the fields of expert systems and biomedical engineering. She was one of the first to apply computer technology to healthcare. #WomeninSTEM 🧪

Ridiculous. I wonder if he has a case against DOGE, because we need people with standing to sue. Congress has made it ABUNDANTLY clear that they’re not going to do THEIR job, so all we have left is the judiciary, and even that’s shaky. But it’s better than nothing.

A letter to my school's district on Friday at the end of February break: "For Niskayuna" Friends, I will not be at school on Monday. I will not be putting in for personal time or sick days, because the time I intend to take does not fall under either category.

Yeah duh www.huffpost.com/entry/irs-ma...

If you're worried about passing a polygraph, this can help you understand and prepare for it. #godspeed

Update on the Ames IA situation. Really, Mike Naig? “A spokesperson for Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Mike Naig's office on Tuesday said the layoffs had had no effect on the department's bird flu response.” BULLSHIT. More to follow. Entire article is important. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Now - the time is truly now. We’ve seen enough history repeating in front of us we need it now. If our Producers regret their vote, they must help us reverse it. We can do this together. #noregerts This isn’t a bullshit glittery post to band together, it’s a real call for help. #bullsonparade ✊

I was at a punk show in 83 where a skinhead jumped up on stage and gave a Nazi salute. The bass player hit him with his bass, knocking him into the crowd and 150 people collectively hauled his ass out of the venue and threw him in the mud. This was the right and only appropriate response.

I can’t just sit by and pretend I’m not seeing what I’m seeing So, like, the Nazis are in charge now huh? I literally just watched multiple WWII documentaries over the past few months. It’s not funny, it’s not a joke. Like WTF. Grandparents & ancestors who fought this rolling in their graves now

It is so *weird* living in a new reality that most people can't even see. Million of people think they're still living in a world that no longer exists. Wildly disconcerting times.

Draw Attention to What They're Doing - A very special guest joined me in the kitchen tonight!! Here's the entire interview with @warren.senate.gov youtu.be/MR6i3y5D2bE

Is it too much to ask to want the government to stop the president from doing the illegal stuff?

I’m begging the media to call Nazi salutes … “Nazi salutes.” You can write “he gave a Nazi salute.” That’s the proper journalism. Describe things as they are even if people get mad.

If you didn't know... • Exxon • Moulton/Coors • Walmart Have funded Heritage Foundation (#Project2025) for YEARS #Boycott

You know it’s bad when this is the post’s cover

This is really something

In 2024, the NLRB filed a complaint against Tesla for interfering in a union drive at their Buffalo, NY assembly plant. Today:

I'n glad Mitch McConnell lived long enough to taste the rotten fruits of his harvest. He was responsible for creating the extremist MAGA movement that has fully turned on him. One of the great villains of the past 30 years.

This is why I really have no time for the "behind the scenes, Republicans say yadda yadda yadda." This is a public-facing business. If you tell a reporter you don't want to vote "aye" then you vote "aye," who cares?

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.

If Patel’s confirmation scares you and you’re worried about the FBI being used to wage war and terrorize American citizens, just ask Black people for advice, they’ve been dealing with it for decades
