There is no statute of limitations for a Hatch Act violation. osc.gov/Services/Pag...

As I told @newrepublic.com, "Once last week, twice today, ICE has picked me up and thrown me on the ground. Honestly, it doesn’t compare to what our neighbors who are trapped inside the Broadview processing facility are going through. They’re committing crimes against humanity there."

This happened about 15 minutes ago. ICE just took one of the protesters inside the facility. This is the first time that’s ever happened. Join us at 1930 Beach Street. Free our friend. Free our neighbors. Shut down this facility.

On Juneteenth and forever… Honor, don’t bury or whitewash the history of our ancestors who were lynched. (National Lynching Memorial in Montgomery, Alabama)

Juneteenth went uncelebrated by the White House. That alone says everything you need to know about this regime.

It’s strange to watch Americans memorialize soldiers who died for democracy whilst they giddily embrace fascism.

How can you tell if the administration is lying? Karoline Leavitt is speaking on its behalf.

Someone at the community garden has been stealing from my rhubarb and I feel like such a hobbit about it. Yes, Mordor is rising and the whole shire may burn if we don't get our act together, but also, garden drama stop stealing my rhubarb I need that for cake ugh

Scores of staffers at the White House National Security Council have been abruptly dismissed as part of a sweeping overhaul that slashes the staff from over 300 to just 50. The move shifts the NSC’s role from policymaking to simply carrying out the president’s directives.

When someone as evil as Dick Cheney openly calls the orange felon the greatest threat to the United States, you know we are in some terrifyingly serious shit.

Remember the 2nd case like Abrego Garcia, involving the gay man deported to Mexico n/w/s having been terrorized and held for ransom there? Judge Murphy orders the US to bring him back. not facilitate, not effectuate, bring him back.

If it was a “personal” and not a “presidential” meeting, why the presidential seal?

I can confirm we had to terminate some of our agreements by the end of Thursday. I didn’t realize how it could impact interns. Trauma continues to be the point.

Lack of transparency is the NUMBER ONE complaint I hear about workplaces, governments, industries, bosses…powerful out here hiding their secrets

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

not American, can't vote, but it seems really weird that the Democratic Party isn't just throwing its funding and resources at AOC and supporting her and her ideas—as well as just dumping money into local news organizations—rather than spending millions on a search for a "Joe Rogan for the left"

Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.

Stop calling kidnapping and trafficking people to countries they’ve never been to “deporting.” It’s criminal behavior by a country with no conscience. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Call your senators. This bill is heading to them next and they can stop it if the people speak out. (202) 224-3121

My university keeps offering zoom webinars where panelists of admin folks (think Provost and Vice Provosts) do a Q&A about fed grant changes. Except the Q&A is planned and canned - someone literally reads a Q and then they read the A. IT SHOULD BE AN EMAIL

Whoa! New polling shows that a majority of voters in EVERY SINGLE CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT oppose cuts to Medicaid. Members of Congress should take note. ☎️ Flood the Capitol switchboard to voice your opposition to the bill from hell. 202-224-3121. Defend Medicaid! Defeat Cancer!

“You are welcome” because everyone was about to crap the bed, but the US did it and those folks outside the bedroom are grossed out while watching the US roll around in shite - and hence the world decided “maybe crapping the bed is a bad idea, tho”

When we get through this despicable period in America—and we will get through it—Americans will have learned why and how important government is to making life better.

Pregnancy is considered a disability. Adriana Smith was a black, disabled woman in need of medical care. The hospital dismissed her & she died. Because she was 9 weeks pregnant, they’re keeping her body alive against the family’s wishes. Misogyny, ableism & discrimination harm in life and death

Now let's get the 278 men back from CECOT.

We cannot force a corpse to donate organs, but we can force a dead woman to be an incubator against her family’s wishes. The precedent this is setting is terrifying.

My favorite clothes are my son’s from when he was about 12. Boys clothes are SO MUCH BETTER than women’s!!!!

This horrible

Dear Men, We gave you the opportunity to run every god damn thing and you have done nothing but fuck it all up. Now, please step aside and get the fuck out of our way so that we can clean up the mess you have made. Thank you, Women ps Go make us a sandwich

To be clear: Rank and file NSF staff ARE NOT involved in this. This is 100% embedded DOGE rats. NSF staff have backed up grant records, etc to preserve the record of them. They don’t agree w this and are trying to salvage all they can. The scientific community must appeal/litigate these cuts!

5/ So from a practical perspective: A. Was your NSF grant terminated? B. Was it awarded before Nov 12, 2020? DOGE has now cancelled dozens of these in the past two weeks. If that applies to you, talk your admin officials about potentially including that in an appeal letter 😉 Spread the word!

🧪😲☝️ New data insight: A DOGE-fueled National Science Foundation has now terminated at least dozens of awards for **especially** bogus reasons. Who this applies to: Terminated NSF grants first awarded BEFORE Nov 12, 2020. This gets a bit wonky, but this is important, so let me explain. 🧵

Reading the story about the woman in Georgia who is brain dead and on a vent but not allowed to die with dignity because she was 9 weeks pregnant when she was declared brain dead. Even in death, our bodies are not our own. State-owned property.

The Republican Party is complicit and eager in the destruction of democracy

We collected well over 180,000 signatures to put it on the ballot. It passed by 57%. These assholes don’t care about us. STOP VOTING FOR THEM.

RFKJ: Americans prefer private insurance. This is BS. Americans prefer to have insurance over not having insurance. They want cheaper, better care. Many right wing pollsters have asked biased questions to make it sound that people prefer private insurance.

Just to be clear, Qatar wouldn’t gift a $400M luxury jet without being promised/given something in return. The United States is in grave danger with this deranged criminal tyrant in the White House. Fuck you to all who chose to endanger us all by sending him back there.

Fuck the Missouri GOP.

People talk about Hollywood advocating liberal causes and in some cases - like LGBTQ+ rights - I think it’s true. But now we’re living with the consequences of at least half century of Hollywood propaganda that “cops know better than the constitution how to fight crime”

Under court order, the government has released a nearly unredacted copy of the memorandum of understanding between the IRS and Homeland Security revealing how taxpayer data was shared for immigration enforcement.

Good morning 🌞 – some inspo to start your day: It’s people like Dr. Brittany Charlton, a Harvard professor and public health researcher, who remind us that science, equity, and truth are worth fighting for. 💪🏽🌍 Her lawsuit is protecting LGBTQ+ health, science, and democracy. 🏳️‍🌈⚖️

Me, except email

“There are about 600 food banks in the state. Those food pantries are filled through the federal Emergency Food Assistance Program, or at least they were before a planned delivery of 34 truckloads of food was canceled with no warning.” #CTPolitics #NutmegSky #Connecticut
