The government punishing a law firm for defending a client seems like the kind of tyranny we fought a revolution against.

Highly relevant to writing and fandom conventions and events being held in the US.

Luke Farritor is not “letting them die”, he is actively breaking the law and withholding life saving meds from the most vulnerable. He is actively killing people on Musk’s orders. This is a death squad. We won’t forget his face or his crimes. #vlakplas #doge #warcrimes

Wow. 20+ DOGE staffers just resigned en masse, saying they refuse to use their expertise to “dismantle critical public services.” “We swore to serve the American people... However, it has become clear that we can no longer honor those commitments.”

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

Thread.

The Great Lakes states have, for years, been fighting an invasion of lamprey eels, which were devastating the fish stocks in the lakes. Trump fired the people who've almost succeeded in doing that. www.bridgemi.com/michigan-env...

I feel like I'm losing my mind. There is no bottom to the depths of this administration's cruelty. www.cnbc.com/2025/02/18/w...

Calling yourself a king doesn't make you a king. Being two vast and trunkless legs of stone standing in the desert, near a half-sunk shattered visage bearing a sneer of cold command, demanding all the mighty look on your works and despair, does.

Every god damned Democratic leader making a speech should just copy some version of this. Say what is happening, say who’s doing it, show that you’re angry.

“put it on his fucking gravestone”

More of this, please

you don’t need the press corps anymore — just pull out your phone. AOC did a livestream that spurred THOUSANDS of calls to congress. the msm wants drama? give it to them. like right now dems should have a fucking PARADE of fired federal workers out there putting a face on all this.

I don't understand why Ds would want the media to ignore Trump declaring himself a king. wtf?

People really need to understand. They are dead serious about all of this and they are now manufacturing pretext quite rapidly to do international strikes against allies etc.

Every union should be echoing this statement.

The McCarthyism has already arrived.

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

I keep seeing DOGE’s actions called “auditing.” It’s not fucking audits. Audits are not performed by sailing into an organization you know nothing about, firing huge swathes of people, and THEN figuring out what they were doing

u gotta compliment ur friends. i understand the impulse to stop urself from being a reply guy, but i promise it's not cringe, commenting on ur friends stuff and giving specific compliments about aspects u liked is the kind of thing that can make a person's whole day

A quick resistance task: 1. Google Gulf of Mexico 2. “Gulf of America" is the top 3. Click on the three little dots to the right of it 4. Select "Send Feedback" 5. Click on "Gulf Of America" 6. Select "Inaccurate content" 7. Select "Incorrect" and type in "The correct name is “Gulf of Mexico"

Now more than ever.

200 law professors from across the country have signed on to a Statement of Urgency about the peril of the constitutional crisis that is now upon us. Complete list of signers below. Please read and repost!! Thank you!

Donald Trump is trying to block trillions of dollars in federal funds to Meals on Wheels, Medicaid, and other critical programs that keep us safe and healthy. If allowed to go into effect, this would wreak havoc across the country. Tell Congress: Trump cannot be allowed to defund our communities.

US farmers sold $2 billion of food to USAID. Not any more. - US farmers provided 41% of food delivered by USAID - $340M of purchases/shipments are now paused. Over 680,000 tonnes. - Food stranded in Houston - Aid stopped in transit. The world’s poor starving, food rotting & US farmers screwed.

Incredible to think how hard Merrick Garland worked for four years to avoid even the remotest appearance of partisanship or ideological commitments, and literally on her first day as AG Pam Bondi is like "Diversity is now illegal, we will be putting all the libs in prison"

i mean, dems are saying the things we want them to say. warren's saying it. jefferies is saying it. wyden's saying it. omar's saying it. AOC is saying it. it's not landing on the front page of any major news website, but they're saying in plain language what's happening here.

So, I read smart people. There is a playbook for this next chapter. I believe we can do this. It won’t be easy, but the map is there. Featuring resources & wisdom from Dr. Erica Cheoweth, @prisonculture.bsky.social @mskellymhayes.bsky.social, @jaclynf.bsky.social & more.

Has congress passed a law superseding or eliminating the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961? Has the Supreme Court declared it unconstitutional? Then why are journalists reporting that Trump and Musk are "shutting down" USAID. They are not authorized to do so.

A group of uncleared, unvetted, civilians have gained access to all of my federal records including military personnel, retirement and disability. They are reportedly feeding them into AI. I want them arrested and charged with federal crimes. Right fucking now! How is this even a discussion?

Well, I did have infrastructure collapse and a constitutional crisis on my 2025 Bingo Card, but I didn't realize it was the Free Square.

Thread.

Fellow NSA - National Security Agency veterans. Look at what’s happened at the National Cryptologic Museum. They covered up with brown paper the photos of Women in American Cryptology. All in response to President Trump’s anti-diversity executive order.

Stop Forcing A.I. into Fucking EVERYTHING!

We're going to make it through this 🩷💙 Let's turn our fear and rage into community action.

Leopard: I will eat your face Bank analysts: Our baseline assumes no face-eating Leopard: Chomp chomp chomp

He is doing shock and awe deliberately to unhinge and destabilize us. So that we are too frozen and traumatized to fight back. Shore up your inner resources. Do everything you can to stay grounded. Every act gumming up the works counts.
