In recent days, the US Army Corps of Engineers created a new designation of “emergency” permits for infrastructure projects, citing a Day One executive order signed by Donald Trump which claims the US is facing an “energy emergency." from @theguardian.com via @climatedesk.org

SCOOP: The director of data science and engineering for the United States Digital Service—which Elon Musk rebranded as the US DOGE Service—has resigned from her position. “I do not believe that DOGE can continue to deliver the work of USDS, based on their actions so far,” she said.

“It is a safe prediction that Trump’s attack on health science will result in the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives. And millions of lives will be diminished,” Crawford Kilian writes. thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

SCOOP: Kash Patel—whom Donald Trump has nominated to head the FBI—took $25,000 from a production company with ties to Russia propaganda activity to appear in an anti-FBI docuseries.

Ellen Weintraub, a Democratic member of the Federal Election Commission, says President Trump is trying to improperly remove her from the post.

The ACLU says it stands ready to sue for access to government records that detail DOGE's access to sensitive personnel data.

Congress must demand proof that USAID’s records are not being destroyed or removed from federal control.

Remember, by elevating incompetent fascists like Hegseth, Gabbard, and Gaetz, the aim is to demoralize us. It's ok to be horrified by the injustice and insanity of it all, but instead of feeling helpless and withdrawing, let’s get angry and fight.

Teachers should teach everything from native American,"trail of tears"to Black wall street and the Holocaust. History of this country is white washed thats why our problems keep persisting. This president has never been through boot camp or watched his friends sent into combat or come back!

Trump’s ultimatum to federal workers is backfiring—making them vow to stay in their positions out of sheer spite.

‘Memory hurts, memory guides’: Auschwitz survivors mark anniversary with warnings over rising antisemitism

Why Donald why can't you leave well enough alone they sacrificed like every one else!

Teachers should teach it anyway. We all need to keep teaching anyway. Fuck the narcs.

A grim but essential memory: 80 years ago today Auschwitz was liberated. That there was an Auschwitz to liberate is unspeakably tragic. . . www.history.com/this-day-in-...

These women didn’t sit down, stay quiet, or ask for permission—they broke the rules and changed the world. Role models. We should add Bishop Mariann Budde to the list.

"Menace and intimidation by Trump supporters have gone a long way over the last eight years."

Nancy Leftenant-Colon, who became the first Black nurse in the U.S. Army Air Corps after President Harry S. Truman desegregated it in 1948, has died at age 104.

Majority of Britons believe Musk having negative impact on UK politics. So a China loving Elon Musk is also destabilizing democracy in the UK. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

What's everyone thinking about Trump and Panama, Greenland and Canada and the Gulf of America I think he's lost his mind or just trying to justify what Putin did please Republicans stop him!!!

Instead of pardoning he should be in there with them. If he does pardon them I'll have no use for him,they were all wrong!

Donald Trump is using the New Orleans truck attack to push his anti-immigrant agenda, falsely claiming the attacker was an undocumented immigrant. In reality, the attacker is a U.S. citizen. Critics argue Trump is exploiting the tragedy for political gain.

What a year! Bluesky opened its doors just last February. Since then, we opened federation, launched video, rolled out trending topics, and a whole lot more. Happy New Year, and here’s to a great year ahead! 🎉

Earlier today, The Trace reported that gun violence is down a bit this year, along w gun sales. Please contact your elected officials and demand meaningful, national gun reform. This cannot be handled state by state. We are the ones we have been waiting for. #DyingForGunSafety #GunReformNow

Not to be anti-American but if Trump thinks Justin Trudeau is having issues just wait until DonOld’s merry band of morons are actually in charge. I’m already batten down the hatches for the cluster fuck I anticipate to occur!! www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/1...

How can anyone support the AfD?! Yet Musk and Vance do. Repulsive.

They will try to get credit for the good still going on and when they screw something up they'll blame the Dems I don't know why more people didn't see thru him they have no idea what we're headed for.

It seems like the MAGA trolls are trying to make their way over to Bluesky. Don’t engage with them. They’re not worth your time and they don’t deal in facts or reality. Just block, report and move on.
