Someone needs to explain to them how stupid that is. Not predicting the weather doesn’t keep it from happening. Like people aren’t going to notice?

This isn't creepy at all. This is totally normal. Just a group of Trump's "Faith Officers" gathered outside the White House, laying hands, speaking in tongues, and invoking divine authority over government decisions. Absolutely nothing to be concerned about here.

We're fine. This is fine.

Today they have crossed a deep red line.

We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty.

GΓ©lineau advanced the term "narcolepsy" in 1880 while de la Tourette described his eponymous syndrome in 1885. "Autism" was coined by Bleuler in 1911, with full diagnoses soon after.

But what do I know? I'm not the Cabinet secretary in charge of the goddamn Department of Health and Human Services.

Donald Trump said that the Tesla boycott is illegal. Just wondering how not doing something can be illegal. An illegal non action? So if you want to stay out of jail, go buy a Tesla. That is, if you are still employed or didn’t have your SS cut.

It sounds like #Darkstorm is having as much fun rummaging in Musk’s playground as Musk is in playing with our lives.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Don’t lose hope. Remember, Watergate took over two years to fully unravel from the initial break-in to Nixon’s resignation. Just like then and now, Americans are losing faith in their government. We are documenting every illegal action and will hold this administration and Elon Musk accountable.

Pam Bondi, Trump's US attorney general pick, is a former lobbyist for the GEO Group, a private prison corporation with massive US government contracts.

Geo Group has a history of human rights abuses and deadly conditions at prisons & immigration detention facilities (concentration camps). #OpCanary

USAID.gov is down. Why is this concerning? Trump has no legal authority to eliminate a congressionally funded independent agency. The work of USAID is vital, and if this can happen to them, it can happen to any of us.

At OPM, Musk’s staffers won’t leaveβ€”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.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with usβ€”we are fighting to defend this country!
