Thank you! A U.S. District Judge has approved requests from anonymous federal employees to proceed under pseudonyms in multiple cases against the Trump administration to protect themselves from potential harassment and threats.

At OPM, Musk’s staffers won’t leave—they work around the clock and have even installed sofa beds in the office. Our access to data systems has been restricted, raising serious concerns about cybersecurity and a complete lack of oversight. We are keeping our heads down and documenting everything.

Incredible. Thank You!

It’s time to speak out and fight back.

This is how Musk’s staffers, who lacked security clearances, are gaining access to classified information and restricted areas.

An Elon Musk staffer misused the U.S. Marshals Service by falsely invoking their authority to intimidate. USAID security personnel were threatened with action by the federal Marshals Service.

Thank goodness for people like former WAPO cartoonist @anntelnaes.bsky.social, American hero. This may only be the rough of the cartoon she planned to run before she was told she couldn't, but it speaks volumes, perhaps, especially in this form.

No sex. No dating. No marriage. No children. Interest grows in 4B movement to swear off men In the days after Donald Trump was elected president, a South Korean feminist movement is capturing young women’s interest on social media.
