No toilet paper, spotty wi-fi, no privacy, and offices so dirty employees are bringing in their own cleaning supplies—that’s how Donald Trump’s RTO push is going for federal employees.

@raisehervoice.bsky.social @cocommonground.bsky.social @ida-co.bsky.social @denverpeoplesmarch.bsky.social @brickbybrickco.bsky.social 4/19 PROTEST FLYER Proud to stand together!

4/19 PROTEST ANNOUNCEMENT Join 50501 Colorado, Women's Strike, and Raise Her Voice 12 PM at the CO State Capitol to say HANDS OFF!

Don't be afraid to call things by what they are. MAGA is a terrorist organization, ICE is a secret police force conducting Ethnic Cleansing, Elon Musk is an oligarch, and Trump is a foreign backed coup d'état figurehead. This is not an administration, this is a regime, and your country is occupied.

Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Safely rewriting the code that underpins Social Security systems would take years. DOGE wants it done in months. What could possibly go wrong?

Who derives joy from cutting people’s Social Security and Medicaid, firing federal workers, giving Nazi salutes, slashing cancer research…Oh that’s right!

JUST IN: The FDA’s top vaccine official, Dr. Peter Marks, has been pushed out. In his resignation letter, he slams RFK Jr. for rejecting “truth and transparency” and pushing “misinformation and lies.” Marks warns of an “unprecedented assault on scientific truth.”

BREAKING: DOGE is starting to put together a team to migrate the SSA's computer systems entirely off one of its oldest programming languages in a matter of months, potentially putting the integrity of the system—and the benefits on which tens of millions of Americans rely—at risk.

U.S. Could Run Out of Cash by May, Budget Office Predicts~NYT I wonder why?

It gets worse. This Signal situation is just the tip of the iceberg of incompetence in this administration.

Yay! Some good news!

Public funds should go to the public good.

DOGE has always been about one thing, and one thing only -> making Elon Musk rich. It must be dismantled.

🇺🇸

How much longer are the American people supposed to put up with the corruption from this administration? #dumptrump

Trump’s losing battle with a top federal judge, the judiciary striking back, a major law firm selling out in the most sickening way, and more on Legal AF. Watch live now!

I'm old enough to remember when we called this Bribery: the payment of money in exchange for an official government act

DOGE claims it’s saving billions—just don’t ask for proof. Musk’s group is now hiding the details of its “savings” after getting caught exaggerating claims. Turns out, transparency is hard when you’re making it up. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/13/u.... #50501movement #PeoplesMovement @polrev.bsky.social

DOGE has spent the last six weeks on a supposed crusade to audit the government and stop fraud, waste, and abuse. But two federal auditors with years of experience say that DOGE’s actions are the furthest thing from what an actual audit looks like.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.

🐶 DOGE is also bad for dogs 🐶

Appeasement is what Trump wants. Fuck that, and fuck him.

Collaborators with the fascists.

This will happen more and more in the private sector. People didn't care when they were firing federal workers "oh who cares, layoffs happen". Yeah... we're going into dark times.

“That’s what the let us work campaign is all about. We're trying to make sure the next time 30 workers get fired from your local VA hospital that 300 people turned out the next day and say, these jobs are too important. Don't let them get away with it.”

@therickwilson.bsky.social has an urgent message for the Dems: SHUT IT DOWN! Watch:

"The patriotic Americans who make this country work will not be silenced. Together, we're building a powerful movement capable of stopping the hostile takeover of our government by unelected billionaires, and we must keep growing this movement!" - AFGE President Everett Kelley

“The last few weeks, we’ve seen this project grow massively and now today, I think we have a historic opportunity to mobilize as a single federal sector… to defend not just the civil service, but ultimately the democracy” - Chris Dols, President of IFTPE Local 98

The White House Press Secretary just wrapped up her press conference, and let’s be clear—the White House is gaslighting you as the country burns. Here is everything you need to know.

Elon thinks all the money YOU earned and YOU put into Social Security isn’t yours! Fuck this prick. That’s MY money, you human dung-beetle.

North Korea's troops have reportedly crossed into Ukraine for the first time. Trump has ordered that F-16 jamming devices used by Ukraine be disabled to make them vulnerable to Russia. Russia has increased its attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure, including the use of cluster munitions.

✈️ Trump is risking American public’s safety by canceling 47,000 TSA workers’ contract. This ILLEGAL action puts all of our jobs and contracts with our employers on the line.

A shadowy group of unelected figures reshaping the federal government to their own benefit from the inside? Sounds familiar! Executive Editor of News Brian Barrett on how DOGE is the deep state.

The oligarchs of this country want to privatize your government. Being the ultimate welfare queens. If you want to know what this looks like, just take a look at the health insurance industry. Does it work well for you? How's the service? It's cost effective to pay federal workers for services.

Imagine that: a whole nation in which every person in a position of power—whether political, institutional or business-related—is an abject coward. What possible reason could anyone have to think that we'll still have a democracy in 36 months? What democracy defined by its cowardice ever survived?

Preach, AOC 👏👏👏

Okay somehow it's Friday and somehow we made it (congrats!) 🤯 To make the doomscroll easier, here's a thread of all the wild stuff we learned this week, starting with @brbarrett.bsky.social's analysis on why DOGE *is* the deep state (and Elon Musk's extended universe.)

Elon Musk blew up another rocket using your tax money, it was recently reported that his failed experiments and falling satellites are causing severe damage to our ozone layer, risking the entire planet. #3E #EndAutogenocide #EndOligarchy

Bribes. They’re known as bribes.

The stakes are just too high.

www.reddit.com/r/europe/s/n... French Senator says it like it is. Calls out Trump and Musk and the Republicans. Brilliant speech highlighting all the wrongs of this administration but also highlighting the importance of the people protesting and rising up! #50501 #stopthecoup

🚨🚨🚨 SAVE THE VA! 🚨🚨🚨 People who actually love our country don't throw American veterans under the bus
