Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

A message from the brave woman - Dr, Teresa Borrenpohl - who was dragged out by unmarked private security in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

Van Hollen: "There's no Article 4 in the Constitution that gives Elon Musk that authority, and the way he's been 'delegated' this authority is illegal, and the actions he's taking are illegal, and we need to shut down this illegal operation."

Following Trump’s rollout of anti-trans executive orders, Hunter Schafer said in the video that she was “scared of the way this stuff gets slowly implemented,” citing the precedent of “historical rises of fascism and everything this new administration represents.”

Information was shared illegally. A career employee at the Social Security Administration provided unauthorized access to data to Elon Musk’s staffers. This employee, Leland Dudek, a data analyst, was recently promoted to acting commissioner by Trump.

I think it’s not helpful to repeat claims that the administration is working on eliminating “DEIA” as though it’s some kind of corporate strategy; just say explicitly that they’re trying to eliminate diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility, and explain how.

Booker: "I think the most effective messaging is talking about the crisis that's happening to Americans ... what's crazy is crisis when you have planes falling from the sky, and you're cutting FFA folks. It is a crisis when nuclear regulators who are keeping us safe are being cut."

This is the scariest thing I have witnessed in USA. THEY ARE CHEERING ON A WOMAN BEING KIDNAPPED BY UNIDENTIFIABLE MEN for the crime of attending and speaking out at a town hall. They are coming for us NOW.

These are brown shirts, and this is Nazi behavior. We are not in a fight between right and left anymore. This is a fight between Americans and those who would bend the knee to a king. If you care about the soul of this country, we have to stand for each other.

when you roll over for the fascists in charge to keep your federal funding

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

No notes

Teachers teach. We need a leaderful movement, and there are leaders all around us.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Alina Habba, who is ostensibly a lawyer, claims on Fox & Friends that Trump "made the law" with his executive orders (executive orders are not laws -- only Congress can make laws)

i love that they put a bullet proof vest on mangione as if a) he's under any danger at all and b) it wouldn't make him look like 300% hotter

Worst. Episode. EVER.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

who’s gonna do it, who will be the hero we needed

Okay so you know I like to remind everyone how the American immigration system has been cruel for a very long time. But loading people on flights to deport them to countries that they are not from, like Iranians to Panama, is not business as usual.

This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

Hundreds of asylum seekers from around the globe are being trapped by the US in a Panama hotel where they'll eventually be sent to a camp in the jungle. One Chinese man said “I thought: America is a free country with respect for human rights. I had no idea it was like a dictatorship.”

white nationalist men are too emotional to be in charge

BREAKING Federal Judge Amy Berman Jackson just issued an order preventing the Trump administration from: 1. Deleting CFPB data 2. Firing CFPB employees 3. Transferring money from CFPB's reserve fund Right after the order was issued, nearly all CFPB employees were placed on administrative leave

There are millions of people who want him dead. Imagine being that hated

CDC source: “We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff. They are calling this ‘Phase 1’.”

Reminder: If some of the worst people in the world are making tons of money and really, really excited, it’s a bad sign for the rest of us. theintercept.com/2025/02/11/c...

Our team reviewed the entire DOGE website. Nothing they have identified constitutes evidence of fraud or corruption—both of which are crimes. Feel free to audit us. The funds were allotted by Congress, and OIGs regularly reviewed expenditures for fraud.

This week, approximately 200,000 federal workers have been let go.

Editorial note: fascism is not insanity, and the language of mental illness should not be used to describe the hearts and minds of evil men.

If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.

I'm hearing now that *every* technologist CFPB hired to investigate Big Tech was fired this evening. That's somewhere between 70-100 people. wired.com/story/dozens-of-cfpb-workers-terminated-in-after-hours-firing-blitz/

The health insurance industry denies 850 million claims per year. They make their money by charging us premiums and denying us care. 2024 profits: UnitedHealth - $15.2B CVS - $4.6B Cigna - $3.4B Kaiser - $13B Centene - $3.3B For-profit healthcare is a scam. Demand Medicare for All.

Got my first "Violating an Executive Order" and "I'll make sure you lose federal funding" parent threat today for teaching "DEI" books in our upcoming "Liberty and Justice" themed unit. Even in "Blue" Massachusetts we're dealing with this. Anyway, don't obey in advance, and don't obey later.

We won’t disappear just because you change a website.

US VP Vance had a private meeting with Far Right AfD leader Alice Weidel after his speech at the Munich Security Conference. They spoke about German domestic policy and the war in Ukraine. Just a reminder that the Far Right Legion of Doom is a global endeavour. They’re working together.

GREAT response to Vance’s speech.

The GOP in Congress are actively in on the coup too. I don't understand why Democrats aren't constantly saying this on a minute by minute basis.

I sometimes don't know how parents still send their kids to these organizations or religious institutions. The numbers are just wild everywhere

this is the sort of thing you post when you’re ramping up to defying lawful court orders

SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.
