@barackobama.bsky.social Happy Birthday, Mr. President!

If only we had warned folks before the election that the real plan wasn’t border security…it was mass deportation in the interior, federalizing the National Guard, ripping people out of homes, families, jobs, and schools.

Oh wait…we did.

This segment with the author of 2025 aired one year ago.

This was my classmate. He was a student in my ethics class, and we used to sit next to each other. Most dedicated person in the class to legitimate justice for all people. He legitimately cared. I am so horribly heartbroken

I thought their current argument is they can’t bring folks back because it’s not US territory. Why is this “better” for the administration?

This was three months ago.

WOW: Thousands are currently protesting in Boston. This is just one of more than 1200 'Hands Off' protests underway today across the nation as people rise up against the Trump-Musk regime. (via Rob Way)

The question of if a country could fuck itself harder than the UK did with Brexit has today been answered.

REMINDER: Wisconsin has same-day voter registration.

So, if you haven’t registered or recently moved or anything like that, you can register at your polling place (with ID and proof of residence) TODAY.

Every state should do this. It’s great that Wisconsin does this. Go vote.

My God.

ICE wrongfully arrested a man while his 5-year-old autistic child sat in the backseat—and shipped him off to an El Salvador prison. No due process. Now the Trump administration claims they can’t get him back.

How many more?

THIS NEEDS TO BE A BIGGER STORY.

WATCH LIVE: Sen. Cory Booker protests Trump’s agenda in marathon Senate speech YouTube video by PBS NewsHour

Brilliant and inspiring. 16 hours filibuster and ongoing. Watch!!

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

@georgetownlaw.bsky.social's great dean, Bill Treanor, posted on LinkedIn a letter he co-signed with 78 law deans protesting Trump memos targeting law firms-a stronger letter than the ABA's pablum. Deans of most T10 schools are not among them, which is disappointing. www.linkedin.com/posts/willia...

The summit in London has begun.

European and NATO leaders have gathered to discuss the future of humanity and Ukraine, without the United States. This is the largest reconfiguration of nations since World War 2.

The US owes UKRAINE an apology.

Tell Congress: Don't cut Medicare, Medicaid, or Social Security Contact Congress today!

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

We need Pete Buttigieg as a clear messenger, more than ever.

There is no way in hell that we want Trump and Russia to negotiate an agreement without Ukraine being part of the negotiations. We remember how Trump sold out Afghanistan to the Taliban, and sold out the Kurds in the Middle East, and is selling out the Palestinians in Gaza.

This is fascism.

This ! This !!! THIS !!!

Thank you! A federal judge blocked U.S. DOGE employees from altering any records of payments at the Treasury Department while she weighs a request by public interest groups for a broader injunction against their activity. Thank you, U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly’s! 🙏

Musk’s DOGE Youngins Are Terrorizing Senior Government Staffers Musk’s lieutenants have reportedly launched into screaming fits as they clash with senior staffers at the Office of Personnel Management.

DOGE engineers as young as 19 have terrorized senior staffers at the Office of Personnel Management as they try to gain access to sensitive information. One young DOGE worker reportedly screamed at senior developers and called them “idiots” during a meeting.

THAT’S. NOT. THE. POINT !

The POINT is that CONGRESS appropriates the money. You think it’s being spent on the wrong things or that there is fraud YOU. TAKE. IT. UP. WITH. CONGRESS.

I’m surprised our members of Congress are so calm about being made redundant💁🏻

Federal Workers Sue to Disconnect DOGE Server Two federal workers, citing reports that Elon Musk’s associates are operating an illegally connected email server at OPM, seek a restraining order.

Exclusive: Federal workers have filed an emergency motion requesting a restraining order to disconnect the DOGE server that's being used to conduct Trump's "deferred resignation program." The workers had previously accused DOGE of illegally bypassing a mandated privacy audit.

By me at @wired.com:

Since the FBI appears to be the only agency that is both still functioning and not headed by a lunatic, the Washington Field Office needs to open an investigation into the breach of the computer systems at Treasury, stat

What will you do to stop this?
