I ended this article with a section called "AltNPS Can't Change." In it, I argue that the account owes its surge in popularity to its manufactured image as a rogue government operative, and that it has trapped itself in an endless cycle of needing to maintain this image. Hence, all the plagiarism.

Thanks for reading, and for the kind words! It's a very weird, very niche rabbit hole that I can't seem to escape, and I'm glad to be able to pull a few others in after me.

This was reported, with suspiciously similar wording, by Reuters at 10:51 AM CDT, about ninety minutes before AltNPS reposted it without attribution. www.reuters.com/world/illino...

I HOPE AltNPS got ChatGPT to squeeze this out for them, because if this ICE raid fanfiction came out of their brain, that's worse. God, that's so much worse.

According to a GoFundMe page from 2015, the family appealed for donations to help pay for the medical care of their son, now 10, who was born with congenital hyperinsulinism, a rare genetic disorder in which the pancreas releases too much insulin, forcing numerous surgeries and hospital stays.

Again, I wish I could turn off my skepticism and just be happy about this, but I don't trust a word AltNPS says. What happened to all the other organizations they said they were going to support "every two weeks?" What happened to the Alt Junior Ranger Program?

The irony: “And for what? For reading!" Berrien said. “Nothing illegal, nothing unethical, and nothing immoral. Just reading. Wouldn’t you want your political and business leaders (and all of society, frankly) to be widely read and thoughtful and aware of different perspectives and ideas?”

Just listen to this podcast. Thanks @altwatcher.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

The Alt National Park Service has spent months stealing from journalists, directly plagiarizing the work of others more than a hundred times. With more than 4.3 million followers on Facebook and nearly 900k here on Bluesky, they've built a massive following on theft.

As a proud Chicana I start the month long celebration today in honoring all of our ancestors. I will not let anyone erase our people, our culture and all of our accomplishments we have achieved.

NPR is tracking the record number of lawmakers in Congress who have already announced they don't plan to run for reelection ahead of the 2026 midterms.

The Washington Post now has no Black Opinion columnists - none - at a time when white nationalism is ascendant in our nation. I am grateful to Karen for the truth and fearlessness her work has always shown. Keep shining that light, my friend.

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

A recent lawsuit alleged something horrifying: Roblox--an online game platform used largely by minors--hosted digital “Diddy parties” and games where players must escape the notorious late child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. We are disturbed and loudly speaking out. app.sosha.ai/s/WrNyhQmY

Frankly, PBS had a tough July. Congress and the president moved to cut our federal funding entirely. Now we move forward. And by “we,” I mean you and me, our newsletter community. Us. Thus, we are gathering together to give specifics on what people can do.

Thank you for this @spitfirenews.com!!! I had to hide my Spanish language even at work. While my said job was to speak Spanish. Co workers had to speak low if we wanted to talk in Spanish. I am learning to embrace my culture after so many years of rejecting it. open.substack.com/pub/msarielk...

Today’s front page of The National, a Scottish newspaper.

If you think it’s a coincidence that this weird post portraying manifest destiny and Native Americans being chased away has 14 words and the two H’s are randomly capitalized I’ve got a bridge to sell you. The bridge is covered in Nazis.

Jeremiah was one of my fav shows of the early 2000s and felt today was a good (or sad) day to remind or suggest it for anyone who enjoys a good dystopian fiction. This will always be the role I remember MJW for even if its not his most seminal works. It made an impression on me.

#Autism is not an illness to be diagnosed but an existence to be understood and accepted. 🔄 REPOST

Tulsi Gabbard is trying to gaslight you in the name of authoritarianism, points out @davidcorn.bsky.social.

This is EXACTLY what they voted for. And sooner rather than later, they’re going to REAP exactly what they voted for…

I 💙 this for him! Thank you @scotnational.bsky.social

The Trump administration has frozen nearly $7 BILLION in public school funding, money schools count on to fund important programs! Congress has the power to demand the release of the funds. You know what do do, friends. Click the link to send a letter to your Reps! social.redwine.blue/s/qi6XiKQX

They chose politics over safety.

The GOP regime bought & owned puppets in Congress defunded Planned Parenthood knowingly cutting off care for millions, pushing the backdoor abortion ban they’ve been plotting for years. Let’s name this for what it is: MAGA’s blatant attempt to punish Planned Parenthood for providing abortion care.⬇️

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?

Thank you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social for standing up for moms, and together, we will press on!

Do you know how your rep voted? Here is a list of the votes: clerk.house.gov/Votes/2025190

The United States government is no longer able to protect us from real hazards, such as flash floods, because it’s shifting funds to fake hazards, such as a non-existent immigrant crime wave. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/05/u...

Few people have embodied the best of journalism—its ability to cut through BS, its capacity to uplift those who’ve been wronged, its burning appetite to tell the stories people need to know—like Bill Moyers. We’ve never needed him more, writes @monikab.bsky.social.
