Worst. Episode. EVER.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

This is what corruption looks like.

Who could have ever guessed that a RWNJ would lie under oath?

Imagine if @aoc @sanders.senate.gov , every dem, SIMULTANEOUSLY held Town Halls where they allowed grant and contract recipients to explain to the country what it is they do and why it's important Invite all media. Including RW podcasters. @spaces Flood the zone Call it a Day Of Transparency

Read this entire thread.

“Did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?” — “Wish You Were Here,” Pink Floyd Seems relevant these days.

Black excellence: Twice as qualified, half as respected, and still passed over or labeled as a ‘DEI hire.’ Black folks have always known this because we’ve seen it happen to our own family members. I know I have.

True.

Reminder: this is completely lawless

Could it be that @kpmgus.bsky.social, as the internal control auditors of the Treasury, is the most important firewall to protect the country now ? @aoc.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @ericswalwell.bsky.social @stephruhle.bsky.social Can someone interview them ?

BREAKING: The US State Department flag has been spotted flying upside down—a universal signal of distress.

This photo says it all. Hard working people that we all rely upon, whether we realize it or not.

Elmo and his hacker high school grads are going to "upgrade" out aviation system? This fascist takeover is even crazier and more dangerous than I expected.

Whew

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

BREAKING: David Hogg, a survivor of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting just been elected Vice Chair of the DNC. CONGRATS!

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Absolutely heartbreaking. They were just kids with their whole lives ahead of them

I’m sad to learn that my law school classmate, Kiah Duggins, died in the DC plane crash last night. Kiah was an exceptionally talented civil rights lawyer and aspiring legal scholar. I hope you’ll read about her work and the causes she cared about, some of which I’ll 🧵 below. What an immense loss

Zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights when Dems were in charge.

When trump blames last night’s tragic air crash on “DEI,” that’s his code for blaming the disaster on non-white people, women, and the LGBTQ+ community.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

During the campaign, Elon Musk promised a voluntary-retirement program for federal workers that would pay them for 2 years. The plan just came out and—no surprise—he was lying. It’s 9 months of pay maximum. Elon. Will. Always. Lie. Believe anything he says and you’re the fool.

BlueSky is just a fad. Wait…WHAT!!! 🎉

Again, I will remind you that Republicans are as stupid as they are evil and this entire thing was fuckign predictable.

Why aren’t a lot more Democrats standing up LOUDLY and FORCEFULLY to Trump and his agenda? At the very least, they should be holding daily press conferences talking about rising egg, coffee and gas prices; Trump’s blatantly illegal executive orders; and how he’s destroying America’s global standing.

These self-identified Christians are celebrating the separation of parents from their children and spouses from one another; cheering families being torn apart, lives being violently uprooted, and human beings being terrorized at school, work, and church. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/if-youre-a...

Watching the GOP Congress completely abdicate their constitutional responsibility to control the purse is really something.
