My hometown paper, The Stamford Advocate, isn’t afraid to report the truth. Why is WaPo?

New from me.👇 It does not surprise me that people are worried. I expected many to be concerned. But I did not anticipate that so many leaders across industries and professions would allow fear to silence them. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/we-c...

We've confirmed the US Bureau of Prisons has transferred trans women to men's prisons despite three court rulings blocking Trump's executive order “I’m continuing to be punished for existing. I'm a pawn in others' political games" -Whitney, 31-year-old woman taken to men's prison this week, told us

#Amazon boycott starts tomorrow! For this whole week (but forever is better)

More of this please. 🍿

Worth posting again for people who may not know. The names of what Medicaid is called in your state:

I want the t-shirts, the posters, the sepia prints, the velvet portrait, the trapper keepers, the lunch boxes, the I-phone covers. Rep @algreen.house.gov is an American patriot.

I logged onto LinkedIn today expecting to see my feed filled with outrage from the lawyer connections I have – most of whom are former federal government attorneys who now work outside the federal government in private practice or in the private sector. Per a Tuesday Executive Order, /1

Let it be said. Our government and the people who work for it are not a waste or a fraud. They are a modern goddamn miracle. If Elon Musk doesn’t like a government that serves all the people, he is welcome to build a time travel machine and return to Apartheid South Africa. the.ink/p/government...

Talked about this on WK tonight. Hope you guys will read this whole harrowing thing. Despite what they say, they’re quite literally setting up tip hotlines for federal employees to report their coworkers for being queer.

Good morning. The dance, whatever that means to you, is worth fighting for. “During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis, we buried our friends in the morning, protested in the afternoon and danced all night. The dance kept us in the fight because it was the dance we were fighting for.

I will use every tool at my disposal to protect this country from Trump. I will litigate to defend voting rights until there are no cases left to bring. I will speak out against authoritarianism until my last breath. I will not back down. I will not bow or scrape. I will never obey.

CARTOON OF THE DAY

yes. love it. do this.

This is the most wretched campaign of deliberate, explicit persecution the United States has perpetrated against a minority group in decades. Many of the most important people in politics and journalism are busying themselves trying to figure out how little to say or do about it.

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

If you support this, you’re an awful human being

If you’re wondering who the Elon Musk staffers are, the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has several Musk staffers, including Amanda Scales, Brian Bjelde, Stephen Duarte, Christina Hanna, and Bryanne-Michelle Mlodzianowski.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Do NOT open your door for any authority unless they have a warrant — from a court, signed by a judge. NO warrant, NO entry. If they arrest you, you ALWAYS have the right to remain silent, even if they don’t read you any rights. The ONLY thing to say: “I want a lawyer.”

Portuguese editorial cartoonist Zez Vaz reaches back to Tiananmen Square to call on American defiance.

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)

An American flag built on the backs of Black people... Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways All this in New Orleans... What a moment

More of this, America.

The logic of the coup that is going on now. And how to resist it. snyder.substack.com/p/the-logic-...

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent. Opportunities are everywhere. Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

This by Dan Savage is I think important to keep top of mind. It speaks to the point I made earlier that bad news is never the only news.
