Of the Chiefs of Staff, vice chiefs of staff, and judge advocates general of the three branches, Trump fired all the women and Black people.

People must really hate Elon if they are willing to throw eggs in this trying time.

The Trump DOJ is big mad about their finest legal minds being humiliated in court

The dance of the emu and the goat.

Todays hero

If RFK Jr replaces ACIP members with minimizers and anti-vaxxers, what will that mean for access to vaccination? Nothing good. Please make sure you’re up to date on your boosters. Get titres checked if you’re able. And wear a mask.

WYOMING: “Thank you, Madam chairman.” “I prefer ‘Mister’ chairman.” “Well you all voted preferred pronouns cannot be compelled speech.”

Strategically yelled at my R reps in defense of the USPS, using their fave keywords: huge employer with a high percentage of military vets, I'm a Small Business Owner, rural seniors need last-mile USPS for medication, USPS is necessary to ship care packages to active duty service members

If you're starving and need some food, who you gonna call?🍔🎶

I typically call to tell them what I think about what they're doing, and to tell them what I want them to do. Like "You voted for Rubio and the next day he announced a trans passport ban. PLEASE DO NOT VOTE FOR ANY TRUMP NOMINEE OR BILL EVER AGAIN." I don't have much luck asking where they stand...

Don't EVER tell me public pressure doesn't work Yet another reversal: " #Trump admin reinstates $ for lawyers representing 26K children in immig court 👉🏼Decision came after supporters flooded Congress members with letters of support👈🏼..." www.latimes.com/california/s...

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

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.

Pay attention to this. Replacing JAGs with loyalists enables whatever orders Trump and Hegseth issue to be interpreted as lawful.

“Are you going to mask forever?” I don’t know… are you planning to spread Covid forever? Masking keeps people healthy. It’s necessary because as a society we’ve refused to do anything to reduce airborne spread. It protects the wearer and those around them. Easy choice!

Here is your reminder that @5calls.org takes all the work out of calling your reps except the part where you actually call. They gather the phone numbers for you based on zip code and have a few bullet points for you to share about concerns, such as the attempt to take over the USPS. Call your reps!

It employs SO MANY PEOPLE. Aside from the services it provides (as a government entity it SHOULD be providing a service and not making money), it employs so many people. Something like 600,000. A LOT of Americans that could lose their jobs and a lot of rural areas that could lose mail service.

If you need a little pick-me-up...

Is this real I can’t tell what’s fake anymore

Firing all of the JAGs (Judge Advocates General)—the top lawyers in each service branch—is just as bad as, if not worse than, firing (most of) the Joint Chiefs.

If you want to fight fascism? Wear a mask. If you want to show solidarity with disabled people? Wear a mask. If you want to protect your own health? Wear a mask. If you recognize that no one is coming to save us? Wear a mask. My ultimate guide to respirators:

My elderly mom needs community support immediately. Cut work hours, car almost repossessed, landlord raised rent despite unlivable conditions, she needs to move NOW before theyre unhoused. Desperate now: CashApp: $momshouse63 PayPal.me/MousePounder Venmo.com/u/MousePounder Cash.app/$WishMage "Mom"

Seems legit.... We don't want to be a nation of underachieving Americans.

Please follow and support former Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe — an inspiring representation of our OPPOSITION movement. Earlier this week, Kluwe appeared at a city council meeting in Huntington Beach City, California and exercised his right to peaceful civil disobedience —…

JUST IN: “A federal judge in Maryland on Friday blocked the Trump administration from terminating federal grants and contracts related to DEI as called for in executive orders signed by President Donald Trump.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

Eugenics & fascism go hand in hand. White supremacists don’t want disabled people around. We remind them of their fragility. We question their supremacy. Stand up for disabled people. Fight mask bans, Medicaid & Medicare cuts. Wear a mask. It’s one of the most powerful things you can do.

It’s awe-inspiring how he unlocked the whole system’s capacity for the most shameless bullshit, he’s not John fucking Wick, he didn’t kill the dude with a stray pencil

There is a bodycam video of the police as they talk to these filthy Nazis. It's unbelievable how helpful 5-0 is to this fascist trash. Also, one of their faces is CLEARLY SHOWN here! WHO IS HE? Hint: It's the guy in the wine colored sweater. www.wcpo.com/news/local-n...

The Pentagon is now pausing their mass firing of civilian employees in order to evaluate potential impacts on military readiness. I’m just spitballing here, but maybe a readiness assessment should have been the first step. 🤦‍♂️

Thank GOODNESS for the Judiciary Branch and for THOSE Biden appointments. BUT even the non-Biden Republican judges are coming through for the PEOPLE. As Maine Governor, Janet Mills said to Donald Trump himself today when he tried and failed to bully her: SEE YOU IN COURT BRAVO! NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!🙏

The marshal service may now allow musk's personal team of bodyguards to take loaded weapons onto federal property. This has not ended well for people like himself. "responsible for the overthrow, abandonment, or murder of 15 out of the first 48 emperors" warfarehistorynetwork.com/article/the-....

another great example along with Wired and Teen Vogue of how real journalism these days can be a lot braver at outlets where no one is trying to get in good with the White House press secretary they’re out here with us, reporting on what’s happening to us all, instead of trying to get inside access

Why have Enrique Tarrio's crypto investments not been transferred to the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church? AME is owed a $2.8 million default judgment entered against the Proud Boys stemming from their December 2020 attack. A debtor's exam should be ordered against Tarrio.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

Remember six years ago when everyone said it was so out of line to call what he was doing “concentration camps”? I do. Yeah. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Yeah, Bannon is a filthy Nazi. Here's hoping he continues to drink himself to death.

I can't believe we keep dancing around clear Nazi salutes.

coiling yourself in knots to act like you don't recognize a sieg heil gesture because you're worried about the blowback from the "terrorist fist-bump" people is some worm hall of fame shit
