What in the actual F is this nonsense?! consequence.net/2025/02/j6-c...

I need every cis person that follows me to read this and genuinely think about it for a while, and I need them to understand that this is the explicit goal of this administration. If you’re trans, you know the stories like it already; spare yourself.

Social Security is a lifeline for millions and a foundational promise the American people have made to ourselves. I’m seeking urgent answers after constituents contacted my office about temporary outages on the mySSA portal.

Members of Congress were just denied entry to the Department of Treasury. This is a 5 alarm fire.

New — Sources tell me OPM is preparing mass firing of probationary employees after agencies submitted lists of them last week without context. If supervisors want to keep someone on, they need to write a short justification. Directive was high level. They were told not to put any of this in print.

Our people across #MD08 are rightly demanding answers about President Trump's systematic destruction of federal programs and the civil service. Federal workers—I'm convening a webinar on the latest developments and resources to fight back. Sign up to gain access upon its release:

NEW: Judge AliKhan blocks Trump's funding freeze (for now), ordering OMB to instruct all federal agencies that received the original memo that they must reinstate any stopped payments. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Some good news.

Multiple government employees have confirmed to me they received notice that many federal government websites will be taken down if they have not removed any mentions of DEI and/or haven't complied with the DEI Executive Order by 5pm today. People are being advised to download archives.

New — The National Treasury Employees Union just sent out an urgent email to all members re: OPM guidance on deferred resignation. “Don't be fooled. Don't follow this OPM group's guidance. DO NOT RESIGN.”

Pete Buttigieg responds to Trump’s vicious nonsense.

New: I got a copy of the OPM federal jobs buyout email. It was sent out directly to federal employees, and it appears the new system-wide email is working. "If you wish to resign: Type the word 'Resign' into the body of this reply email. Hit 'Send'."
