The Capitol Police arrested a group of peaceful protesters who demonstrated today in the Cannon House Office Building against the Trumpโs decision to freeze foreign aid and lay off thousands of USAID workers. The president has made his message clear: disagree with them, and they will come after you.

KNOW YOUR
RIGHTS
IN CASE OF ICE:
CONOCE TUS DERECHOS
EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:
DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR.
ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge.
Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door.
NO ABRAS TU PUERTA.
ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizรกndola debajo de la puerta.
ASK THEM
TO LEAVE.
If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission.
2
PรDALES QUE SE VAYAN.
Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pรญdeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a รกreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.
REMAIN SILENT.
You have the right to remain silent.
If the agents ask you questions, tell them,
"I wish to remain silent."
PERMANECE EN SILENCIO.
Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio.
Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles:
"Deseo permanecer en silencio".
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.
Hereโs our shareable guide โฌ๏ธ: (pt. 1/2)

Mass terminations of probationary workers also swept through the National Nuclear Security Administration, a semi-autonomous agency within the Energy Department that oversees the nation's nuclear weapons.
They did a mass firing of staff at the National Nuclear Safety Administration. These are the people who handle the safety of our nuclear stockpile. This is so catastrophically bad.

i will say that we have never experienced anything like an administration trying to essentially freeze the activities of the entire federal government while making a series of illegal power grabs. genuinely unclear to me what kind of response, if any, these guys are generating against them

A white woman recently took to TikTok in shock after being fired.
She expressed surprise, believing perhaps that DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) hires were exclusively people of color.
However, a lesser-known fact is that white women are the largest demographic of DEI hires in the U.S.

Costco
Bank of America
Delta
JP Morgan
Marriott
Microsoft
Procter & Gamble
Goldman Sachs
American Airlines
Southwest Airlines
United Airlines
