A little disobedience here, a little disobedience there #Resist

From an expert: "Last night was the worst night in US civil-military relations since the Civil War." Loyalty purges of the military are very, very bad.

after a weird four year delay, a federal judge in mass. has dismissed a lawsuit by the auto industry against a very popular state "right to repair" law that made repairing your vehicles easier and less expensive

He'll do for air travel what he did for Twitter.

This is a great idea.

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

Even the most disturbing RFK Jr. headline always manages to have a detail inside creepier than you could have imagined. I’m sorry, did you just say Black kids should have a chance to get “re-parented”???? Gift link wapo.st/4hW2xGI

Madison, Wisconsin standing strong!!! Thank you!! #CourageIsContagious #FiftyFiftyOne

It’s like being held hostage in a clown show.

“Give the DOGE kids whatever they want.” USAid www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/feb/05/musk-doge-takeover-usaid

There it is. NTSB only sending info out via X now. Expect the same from CDC FDA etc. soon.

It’s insane to me that we’re just… letting non-government personnel rifle through government code. The SysAdmins have to be losing their fucking minds right now.

Several conversations today w people in the key executive departments. And while the particulars are hard to pin down my impression is that the Musk take over stuff is considerably worse than is being presented in the press. By this I don’t necessarily things they *done* yet but the level of …

USAID security leaders removed after refusing Elon Musk's DOGE employees access to secure systems

1/ Musk seeking control over nerve systems of the federal government. As someone who spent a decade studying how centralized information systems are used for coercion this is a five alarm fire. We need to name it, identify risks, and seek to mitigate their impacts. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...

Just because it is in plain sight does not mean it is not what it is: A hostile takeover of the U.S. government by an unelected and unfettered power monger. Believe what you see, do not see what you believe.

Btw let me reinforce this again when it comes to this crew: EVERY ACCUSATION IS A CONFESSION.

No they don’t. Canada and Mexico want none of this. They want the president of the United States to respect and abide by the trade treaty he negotiated with them - and not make up bogus pretexts for plunging us all into a gratuitous no win economic debacle.

Sean Duffy refuses to say under questioning from Jake Tapper that there's no evidence DEI had anything to do with the DCA disaster, even though he can't produce a shred of evidence to back up the notion it did

love those Brits

Union official says Education Department employees were placed on leave after taking diversity training during Trump’s first term -NBC News They attended a conference, encouraged by Betsy DeVos, OVER 4 YEARS AGO WHEN TRUMP WAS PRESIDENT!

🚨 🚨 🚨 HOMEWORK 🚨 🚨 🚨 The email address for federal workers to inform on their colleagues is [email protected]. Would be a real shame if folks flooded that inbox, rendering it useless.

Insanity: The deportation flights Trump used military jets for—that Mexico refused to accept—cost the U.S. up to $852,000 per flight to attempt to deport just 80 migrants at a time. To compare, flights directly chartered by Immigration and Customs Enforcement cost just $8,577.

CNN has now confirmed this. www.cnn.com/2025/01/24/h...

Firing independent watchdogs is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. Removes another obstacle to corruption and abuse of power www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

If your spouse needs a safe word with her friends to protect herself from you, you should be in therapy. Or in prison. Not the Secretary of Defense.

No foreign power has ever posed as massive and immediate a threat to the United States as the current administration.

This is Carolyn Edwards. She was one of the first officers attacked and knocked out on January 6th. She bravely testified before the January 6th committee. She is one of the bravest people I know and she deserves better. (She posted this publicly on her FB page which is why I'm sharing publicly)

It’s all performative for folks on the Right. Well, as least everything that requires them to not look like they would execute us all for a nickel.

Think about this.. for a second. Doesn't take you much time to get it! Them? Eons.😉
