The Supreme Court, in its first ruling on President Trump’s use of executive power during his second term, decided that he cannot, for now, dismiss the government lawyer leading the watchdog agency responsible for protecting whistle-blowers.

Yes!!

Are we willing to get arrested like #JohnLewis was for making #goodtrouble. ?

Breaking — The Social Security Administration is dissolving its Office of Analytics Review and Oversight effective 2pm today, an agency source tells me. In a meeting leadership claimed it was part of government-wide mission to “align missions better” & said it was the first of many changes to come.

There is zero chance we are going to let Senate Republicans pass the most pro-billionaire and anti-middle-class budget we have EVER seen the easy way. I will not sit by quietly while they try to take food off families' tables so they can put more fuel in private jets.

Jocelynn Rojo Carranza was mourned Wednesday in Gainesville, Texas. The 11-year-old girl died by suicide after classmates bullied her and threatened to call ICE to deport her parents. Jocelynn was in the sixth grade. She loved playing the French horn, making TikTok videos and swimming.

Kenzoir knows, she studies authoritarian govts and leaders. !!!

I voted NO to advance Trump's nominee for Secretary of Education out of Committee. Right now Trump's already illegally gutting the Department of Education and threatening to dismantle it entirely, DOGE got access to sensitive student data, & Trump is trying to dictate what local schools can teach.

Listen to voice of facts!!

Kendzoir predicted and warned about this ten plus years ago!!!

Pritzker: If we don’t want to repeat history, then for god’s sake, in this moment, we better be strong enough to learn from it.

"The hard reality is that we are not going to get a quick fix. We will not wake up one morning this month and find that Trumpism is over. And we can’t throw our hands up in the air in disgust and walk away in the absence of instant success. The fight for democracy is going to be long and hard and

Proud American, ashamed of the president.

If we can not stand up to #Putin now, all the other draconian cuts to social programs, science, and all won’t make much difference if this country joins the #evil side of the #world. Interested in what others think about this. Am I overstating? #Ukraine #freeworld #unitednations #dictatortrump

NEW: Idaho, home to seven national forests, will suffer as a result of USFS layoffs, employees warn. Mudslides, clogged toilets, fallen trees, overgrown trails. Lack of first aid. Lack of support for firefighters. Lack of information. www.spokesman.com/stories/2025...

Trump's DOJ has erased a report from its website that lays out its own recommendations for tackling violence against Indigenous women www.huffpost.com/entry/donald...

Thank you my senator!!

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

The Washington Post refused to run this ad. Sure would be a shame if it went viral.

A year ago,Putin killed Navalny in prison.This didn't push the Russian opposition into uniting&fighting Ukraine is the one who continues fighting Putin,paying the price with lives of Ukrainians Unite around Ukraine.Support our Defense Forces. This is where the battle for the future is taking place

Donald Trump and Elon Musk going after the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau tells you everything you need to know about their priorities. Instead of lowering prices on "day one" as Trump said, he's raising costs on families by letting Wall Street cheat them.

docs.google.com/document/d/1... Great list of actions to take #dosomething

I just added more things to this list today: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Things this administration will do that still surprise me: 1. 3 hrs notice eviction of Coast Guard officer from her job and her home for caring about equality. 2. Present a plan to pave over the rose garden at the White House. 3. Nothing, anymore. Outrage is useless, unless leading to action

If you are brave, stand up for others. If you can’t be brave. And it’s hard to be brave You can at least be kind Kind to others Wrote #sarahkendzoir Many years ago #kindness #bravery

This is the quote I was trying to paraphrase. If you are brave, stand up for others. If you can’t be brave….at least be kind. Getting to it. #bravery #kindness

Donald Trump promised to lower costs, in his own words, “on day one.” Now, Trump and Elon Musk are gutting the consumer agency, which will increase costs on working people. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

What!!??

Great explanation of what just happened with the mayor of nyc case

A grim scene this afternoon as Emil Bove faced down lawyers from DOJ’s Public Integrity Section. One said it was “not anything any of us ever expected to see in America.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

I maxed out my credit card, emptied my savings account, and took out a loan to move from Alabama to Bethesda, MD. I don’t even qualify for unemployment since I’ve only worked at NIH for a month. I will be financially and medically devastated. Seeking suggestions for anywhere that’s hiring!!

One of our bright young people, life upended, for what?? Greed, stupidity, evil doings of criminals in power. Wishing #Katesandlin all the best!

Imagine hearing these details – lawyers are locked in room and threatened with being fired until they agreed to dismiss —in Putin or Stalin‘s Russia. Utter brutality, putting a rule of law on a meat grinder.
