I like rocks. And rainy days, wood smoke, tomatoes in season, lovely smart kind people, driving vacations on blue highways and other things too.

I’m George Takei and I approve of this message.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is not a dictator. He is a champion of democracy, freedom and truth.

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.

Mike Pence just reposted an old article he wrote about the limitations on the powers of a president. For some reason. Here is a part of it.

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

✅ DEI Employers of the Day™ 25 retailers that have stated commitments to diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI) "As more retailers like Walmart and Target drop DEI initiatives, companies' efforts to find and fund Black-owned brands are also at risk." - @cnbc.com www.impactivize.org/dei-employer...

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)

The lawsuit alleges the migrants have been "disappeared into a black box" and are unable to communicate with attorneys.

📌TIP FROM A DAMN GOOD SOURCE: The Forest Service is going to layoff 5,000 workers by day's end. An email to staff will be going out shortly. Other agencies are also said to be doing this.

Under oath, Kash Patel said he was unaware of plans to dismiss FBI agents before he was confirmed. Today, whistleblowers revealed Patel was reportedly directing those dismissals. Covertly. Yet another reason he must be rejected.

PLEASE SHARE.

You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.

Mindset reset: Right now, brave Ukrainians are defending their land & loved ones, at the cost of their sanity, limbs & lives. It’s an existential fight for their democracy & way of life. If the Russians lose, they go home. If the Ukrainians lose, they will be overrun & destroyed. #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦

Note to the media - this is how it's done. (And this guy was from Fox News of all places!) #ResistTrump

We know what’s going on here.

Hint, hint @govmlg.bsky.social Illinois Governor signs order prohibiting all J6 rioters from state employment

I stand with the trans community. Pass it along.

Here’s what we did today

Reminder: this is completely lawless

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

If you are a federal government employee and you receive an email that the Fork in the Road deadline has been paused, please share it with me. I’ll keep you anonymous. Contact in bio. I’m interested in the language they use. They’ve been ordered to notify you.

I am really frustrated that the press is discussing the destruction of USAID as something that has happened rather than an illegal action that will likely be undone in two weeks when courts tell the world that it was illegal.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

Though the Justice Dept has deleted information about its Jan 6 prosecutions from its website, a federal judge has issued an order listing and chronicling all of the cases and prison terms Here: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

It’s pretty insane that a private citizen can come in, hijack federal government servers, fire people, and steal their PII.

🏆 Governor Pritzker- Illinois - has signed an order prohibiting all J6 rioters from state employment.

It has now officially been confirmed. We have reached the singularity

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

True then. True now. Thank you, Willem Arondeus.

Why is the federal government blowing over $800K on a huge military plane to deport just 79 immigrants to Guatemala, when a regular flight used to cost us $100K? It’s all for show! And the truth—they weren’t rapists, murderers, or criminals.
