Bloomberg Editorial Board: On a scale of 0 to Willie Nelson, how high are you? Of course they can't ignore it. This bloated manchild just set fire to decades worth of work from dedicated public servants, all so he could self-deal. There is no bright side. It's not reform, it's repair. Fuck off.

I'm not being purposefully obtuse. The guy's a dick, obv. However, it would be cool to have more AOCs out there (male/female/etc.). 🤔 I have an idea. Let's make this one president and then we can see how that plays out inspiring the next generation!

I couldn't agree with Mr. DiBello more. Taking the "high road" is a call from the establishment to protect the current social order for sake of social norms which serve their interests. It's merely status quo wrapped in a cloak of decorum and civility.

Sorry. Been down for a while. Someone tried to compromise my account, and I was locked out. I must have made some friends 😄

Pro tip: When under investigation, STFU. Seriously. You're the best. I'm sure if, given the opportunity, you could prove your innocence... But that's not why they are talking to you. They have a theory and want supporting evidence. Everything you say will be used to prove that theory. STFU.

Elon, after 4 years of clearly poor choices, I know you thought that firmly planting your lips on Trump's taint was the natural progression... But that left you with a bitter aftertaste and an embarrassing orange "glow". Maybe you forgot that you were supposedly a CEO, before you were "OfDonald."

It's not just the funding that is Congressionally mandated (though it is). The entire Dept. of Ed. including the organization, structure, and how its run is mandated. Trump CANNOT shut down the department unilaterally. Don't let them lie to you!

And now for your hidden f#$k you of the day: with the BS going on at TSA, we almost missed the NIH. NIH is centralizing (i.e., removing the vast majority of capable scientists who aren't political appointees) from the grant review process.

Seems pretty straightforward. There is no reasonable doubt that Trump's actions against Zelenskyy only benefit Putin. In a sane world, Trump would already be impeached for crimes against his own country as well as Ukraine.

If there's any one thing that I know about viruses, it's that viruses have an incredibly stable genome and are very resistant to mutation... As such, there is absolutely NO WAY that H1N5 can benefit from selective mutations/lat. gene transfer. This is not an instantly regrettable decision. #sarcasm

Putting aside how things are supposedly cheaper from for-profit companies... Congress, why in the hell are we spending public money for this? Didn't NASA work out NOT exploding rockets 60 years ago? Couldn't we spend this money on success for public benefit, rather than failure for private profit?

This wonderful lady needs more followers! Thanks, @therealelvira.bsky.social!

And, if they're wise, those Dems will collect every single question and deliver them to the appropriate congressperson, both in hand and via website for everyone to see.

We get breaks, MFer. No shock that we spend them on trash like you, given what you're destroying.

The 10 Democrats who voted to censure Green were: Ami Bera - CA 6 Ed Case - HI 1 Jim Costa - CA 21 Laura Gillen - NY 4 Jim Himes - CT 4 Chrissy Houlahan - PA 6 Marcy Kaptur - OH 9 Jared Moskowitz - FL 23 Marie Gluesenkamp Perez - WA 3 Tom Suozzi - NY 3 Let these rats know how you feel...

So, slashing of SSI and Medicare/Medicaid, closure of the Dept. of Ed, privatization of the USPS/Amtrak, defunding NPR, the WH crypto money laundering scheme, and Trump offering access at $5 mil per person. WTF?!? Where are the Dems? What will be left in 2026, if you don't step up now?

It's not much in comparison to the damage, but it's something. Congrats!

Selfish is one thing. In fact, selfish is basically all Trump does. However, this is vile. This is tantamount to murder. If this goes through, Trump should be prosecuted as a war criminal (e.g., Article 8(2)(a)(vii) under Rome Statute).

"Betrayal" sounds like an odd word choice here. Don't get me wrong. I'm sympathetic for all federal workers getting screwed right now. I wanted literally none of this. However, it sounds like someone voted for the face eating party, and then got surprised that their face was also on the menu...

This gives me windmill cancer.

Racist are also really dumb * In the state of Minnesota, Chauvin was found guilty of: * Second-degree unintentional murder. * Third-degree murder. * Second-degree manslaughter. * These were state charges, tried in a Minnesota state court. Trump can't pardon state convictions!

I thought I recognized him! 😂

Don't trust Florida (FYI, Pam Bondi was AG there until 2019) There's two possibilities here: (1) the Florida AG sees a legitimate possibility of arrest and conviction of Andrew Tate (2) Florida AG is using the investigation as performative theater with the intent of clearing Andrew Tate's name.

So now we're preventing researchers from collaborating internationally? What POSSIBLE public benefit could such a restriction serve?!?

NIH, NIMH, NCI, NLM, etc. have all been taken offline. Key point here: this is not typical "server is down for maintenance". DNS servers have been updated for multiple domains/subdomains by someone with access to internal controls. I hope this is just nothing, but it looks big.

Just got another email, saying that the "what did you do this week" BS is a weekly thing now. Not hearing another word about how hard CEOs work. If you have time for this shit, you must be bored. Shit, Elon, pretend we're your 14 kids and ignore us. We'll all be better off (just like yr kids).

I miss having a president in the White House. But, alas, he's gone back to Kyiv.

Overwhelmed with fake complaints! What a tragedy! 😅

What's Trump's plan for lowering egg prices? <drumroll> ...outsourcing the job to foreigners! Nothing against foreigners, but Trump does give y'all the worst jobs. (Sorry Melania) I hear Canada has eggs at reasonable prices (**for countries which aren't currently trying to crash their economy).

The only possible positive thing about Trump in the WH, is that people like @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social get a chance to shine. Thank you, Rep. Kenyatta for speaking truth to power!

I'll never understand what motivates this level of evil, but I remain thankful for heroes, such as Rep. Pettersen, who stand up to fight it.

Of course! We forgot about the little known technique of making ish up! 😂

I know it's hard, but we need you!

I wanted to start my day not frustrated. I really wanted to... And then I see this. The absolute heartlessness of "Yeah, I know we could make billionaires and corporations pay their fair share in taxes. But let's just kill old people and starve kids instead!"

So, business leaders across America, the average person isn't the only one screwed by us giving out our work to Musk. Should we tell Musk about your latest drug trials, SEC disclosures, bank regulatory filings, civil/criminal investigations, patent applications, etc.?

This would be a very wise move on Canada's part. Musk has shown both interest and capability in fomenting far right extremism.

Please don't vote for this bill. Contact your senators and congresspeople to fight this! I'd rather be stuck at home and furloughed than have this bill be passed. Will it be fun for us? Nope. But it's critical that we fight back. Too many of the most vulnerable in our country will suffer otherwise.

Apparently, I'm forced to disclose to Musk or face involuntary termination. My bosses have capitulated. It's out of my power to prevent. Right now, the disclosure appears to be minimal, but who knows how far it goes... I'm sorry all.

Can I just send out a thank you to the people responsible for this video which apparently played for 5 minutes at HUD?

"Probationary" in the federal government does not mean new to the job. Almost no one starts at the federal government in a non-political role as their first job. In many cases, these people have been working in similar fields for decades before they shifted over to federal work.

So, Dan Bongino is gonna take the deputy FBI director spot, huh? Seems like the logical choice to replace Paul Abbate, a 30 year career FBI agent, with a podcast host who passed a loyalty test, right? Like if inaccuracy and ineptitude had a baby, and the placenta was given vast unchecked authority.

I just received a desperation email from my alma mater, saying that the Trump cuts in research funding were going to result in dramatic reductions in basic scientific research and training. How can we "Make America Great Again" by destroying our educational systems? Make it make sense.

Been at work for an hour. Waiting on the higher ups to tell me if we should be giving your information to Musk (which is apparently how things work now), and now I'm hearing that Musk has said this email wasn't serious. It was just to wake us up... JFC. Please just go back to wrecking Twitter!

USAID does so much for the world, for our country, and costs us so very little. I can't believe what I'm seeing here. 😞

We're "freaking out" because we are entrusted with the public resources for the benefit of all Americans. I've proudly served the American public for a decade. My work is secret. I'm being asked to give your information to Musk, for loyalty to Trump rather than to my country. You deserve better.

Trudeau going to Ukraine #CanadaSky #USpol globalnews.ca/news/1103163...

Strong list. Thanks @elizabeth64.bsky.social!

Apologies to people I've added who didn't want it. Rebuilding a completely disconnected resistance list is tough. Real person here dealing with a messed up situation, and my first amendment rights are largely gone because of my work. Gotta stay anonymous for now, your block is your call. ✊

✨SUPER SUNDAY PARTY✨ It's now a weekly pleasure to join forces with MANY amazing boosters, so we can offer you this HUGE booster party 🎉 Left a comment/RPd my earlier post? You're probably in this pack! 👊🏼 Please 💙 > 👣 all > 🔄 🙏🏼 Check TLs of other hosts too 😉 #UnitedBlue 💙🫂 go.bsky.app/ENfWLJr

I've seen a couple of posts indicating the [email protected] or [email protected] are the correct [email protected]. however, I can verify a wide variety of hrXX accounts and I have reason to believe that Musk is trying to use those numbers to out the employees. Answer: target hr1-hr20 for spam. #resist ✊
