Has anyone read this series about the 2024 election by This Will Hold? #USPOL open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...

What is your favorite fantasy series and why? Realm of the Elderlings by Robin Hobb. Incredible character writing and her psychology was spot on. When I was done with the last book, I felt like I just walked away from my bff. It was painful. A few books start out slow, but relevant. #Booksky

She trusted him with her most prized possession 🥺

 I’ve included some of my personal favorite sea otter facts in this video! 🤗 P.S. sorry about the quality, bsky makes you compress videos so much:( 📸 user8736150399263 (TT) / Georgia Aquarium / Adobe / envato / Wikimedia Commons / openwaterpedia

Trump just signed an EO to create the new Stormtroopers, or brownshirts and my god how I wish this was just a star wars reference :(

(WaPo) - Members of President Donald Trump’s National Security Council, including .. Michael Waltz, have conducted government business over personal Gmail accounts, according to documents reviewed by The Washington Post and interviews w/ three U.S. officials. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

An important read. #Resist open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

When Women Were Dragons by Kelly Barnhill. It is a wonderful feminist fantasy book about the mass dragoning of 1955. (I have read it 3 times in the last 2 years) A great read for those of us women not anxious to go backwards to a 1955 USA. #Booksky www.goodreads.com/book/show/58...

Most illegal immigrants that work in the USA pay taxes, yet do not receive any of the benefits of citizens. How much tax revenue is the USA about to lose from these deportations? How much are we payng to house these poor immigrants in deplorable conditions? #Resist

Requesting any lawyers or state attorneys general who can help intervene or take legal action to please do.

The Trump administration has already replaced the top IRS lawyer who resisted such cooperation—a shift toward using confidential tax data for immigration enforcement purposes, in direct conflict with existing federal law.

Urgent: Illegal Activity Underway Many undocumented immigrants file tax returns with the IRS, providing details about their residences, families, employers, and earnings. The IRS has historically encouraged tax compliance by issuing ITINs to those without Social Security numbers.

The Trump administration plans to drop a federal lawsuit against a chemical manufacturer that released high levels of a carcinogen from its Louisiana plant.

But there is no energy emergency—the U.S. is the world’s top oil & gas producer. This is a power grab to roll back protections.

The order fast-tracks projects by using emergency provisions in environmental laws, cutting reviews and waivers for endangered species protections.

Trump signed executive orders to expand logging on public lands while bypassing environmental protections. His “energy emergency” declaration lets him override regulations entirely.

Is anyone asking when Musk started recruiting young neo nazi's? The Cult of Musk?

Did those of you expecting a social security payment today receive it?

Thank you, Congresswoman! Good to see Collins on this, as well. We're guessing Golden is still hawking his blanket tariffs bill, though?

We'll go to our graves saying it: our government is nothing but a reality TV show to these people.

We'll say it again because certain people need to hear it: pay for federal workers accounts for just 4.3% of the budget. If the federal government were to fire every single worker, it would only reduce government spending by less than 5%. What DOGE is doing is just cruelty.

Auditing is so easy, even a park ranger can do it. Share this to stop the spread of misinformation!

- Health and Human Services mix-up – A $150 million savings claim was actually linked to an active $119,000 contract for refrigerated liquid gases, instead of the correct $1.4 million administrative contract.

Elon updated DOGE, claiming to have fixed the mistakes we all pointed out. But instead of correcting them, he just added more false claims. He even inflated his so-called “savings” total from $55 billion to $65 billion, when in reality, the actual increase is only from $2 billion to $2.3 billion.

Dr. Collins wrote. “They are individuals of extraordinary intellect and integrity—selfless, hard-working, generous, and compassionate. They exemplify excellence in every way and deserve the utmost respect and support of all Americans.”

“As I leave N.I.H., I want to express my gratitude and admiration for the men and women with whom I have worked side by side for so many years,”

Dr. Francis S. Collins, a renowned geneticist who led the NIH for 12 years, announced his retirement from both the institutes and the fed government. In his parting statement, he delivered a pointed yet measured message regarding the Trump admin’s decision to dismiss hundreds of NIH employees.

These recruitment attempts are designed to exploit individuals who may be facing uncertainty in their careers, using seemingly legitimate job prospects to extract sensitive information.

If you are a federal employee or contractor, especially one with a security clearance, be cautious of unsolicited messages offering career opportunities, high-paying contracts, or overseas roles.

Thanks to everyone who participated nationwide!

Elon Musk has shut down a team of tech-savvy civil servants responsible for developing the IRS’s free tax-filing service and improving government websites. As a result, 90 employees were immediately locked out of their devices and informed that their jobs were deemed non-essential.

Emails titled “What Did You Do Last Week? Part II” were sent to federal employees, instructing us to list five bullet points of our accomplishments and copy our managers. This time, we were informed that it will be a weekly requirement, due by 11:59 p.m. ET on Mondays.

A lot of people feel powerless, saying “What can we do?” The point of collective activation hasn’t arrived yet, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing you can do. 1/2

In Senate Resolution 7 overhauling women’s healthcare, it says the following: “Whereas health care for women should also ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF MEN, families, and communities as they relate to women’s healthcare;” Wth?
