Describe how Donold’s second term is going in one word.

SCOOP: Now that Linda McMahon is confirmed/sworn in as secretary, Trump will be imminently issuing an executive order eliminating the Department of Education. I’ve obtained a draft of an email that McMahon will be sending to staff re: the EO and the department’s “final mission”. Here is a portion:

Psst… Trans rights.

The US Education Department said it launched a portal called ‘End DEI’ where the public can complain about diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives in publicly-funded schools reut.rs/4gX8qCQ

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

The Trump official currently dismantling USAID was caught in a secret meeting with a group of pro-Russian separatists in the Balkans. Those he met with are under American sanctions for trying to restart the Bosnian war in the name of Christian nationalism. 1/

the entire civilian payroll in the federal government was $271 billion in 2022. the tax breaks this administration wants for the wealthy will be $400 billion. it isn't a matter of too many federal workers, it's a problem of too much greed and corruption at the top

I'm sad to share that the trans vet that took her life outside the VA last week was apparently Elisa Rae Shupe. She's someone many of us know - she was responsible for the mass email leak that let us know how the ADF, Heritage, etc planned to enact trans eradication we see today. RIP Elisa.

or as fox news advertised, "congressman moves to help trump acquire greenland and give it a catchy me name." i am physically ill.

Is chivalry alive? You decide. President gives up his seat to an elderly man and does press interview standing up.

A coalition of news organizations said in a court filing that video exhibits from a Jan. 6 riot case had "disappeared" from a government platform that provided access to evidence used in court.

not that there will be consequences. the supreme court already have him permission to do whatever the fuck he wants

Thou shalt not spend millions on Super Bowl ads about Jesus when you could’ve used it to feed the hungry.

if i'm being honest, i'd say he has syphilis and it is rotting his brain. it doesn't excuse it, but it's the most rational theory i can think of

dismantling the very agency that has tried to protect the American people from Trump and Musk. notably these two are known for predatory actions. They never had an interest in protecting anyone but themselves

did indeed.com just slam anti DEI rhetoric?

I hope they are.

absolutely no surprise that the "pro life" crowd has brought us to the moment of withdrawing treatment for those with HIV. i wonder how big the quilt would be of we had to measure the lives affected by this.

THIS IS AMAZING. ✊

USAID needs an umbrella coz we've got a storm of disinformation about there about what we do and we need good people who care about other people to spread the FACTS. It's us and truth v MAGA. Please share this video and thread! #TeamUSAID #AIDBowl www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqUE...

The erasure of the Jan. 6 records comes while the administration is also seeking to whitewash the teaching of U.S. history, threatening to withhold funds from schools that teach about America’s troubled history of racial and gender discrimination. By @alecmac.bsky.social

saw this posted by someone else and wanted to confirm the legitimacy. the hateful, uniformed garbage they're showing is soul crushing. i have been reminded once again that while i will always fact check, i can't be someone monitoring these guys firsthand.

Elon wants the CFPB gone so tech billionaires can profit from apps, like X, that offer bank-like services but don’t follow financial laws that keep people’s money safe. Musk wants to use the government to put more in his pockets. This is a blatant conflict of interest. www.npr.org/2025/02/07/g...

NEW — I spoke to a staffer at the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) about DOJ's threat to pull funding if the org didn't comply with Trump's DEI executive order, and how org leadership rolled over. "Rather than fight back, we chose to sacrifice trans children," they said.

Normalize pronouncing DOGE as DOUCHE.

True.

ohmyfuckinggod

New — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) was told this week by DOJ that they'd lose their funding if the org didn't remove any mentions of LGBTQIA+ issues from their public materials, I've learned. Staff were told they need to deadname trans kids in their reports to comply.

Federal health workers are expressing fear and alarm after a website called “DEI Watch List” published the photos, names and public information of a number of workers across health agencies, describing them as “targets.”

This !!

Plenty

At what point does the military step in? Isn’t that what often happens in dictatorships where the dictator goes insane? Isn’t the US military supposed to have a plan for everything?

In Oct., @fastlerner.bsky.social & @andykroll.bsky.social reported on how the Heritage Foundation flooded federal agencies with thousands of information requests, focusing on phrases like “Trump,” “climate change” and “DEI” in government workers' emails, texts, Slack and Microsoft Teams messages.
