This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.
A New Hampshire real estate attorney and American citizen returning home from Canada says he was detained at the border without an explanation and "treated like a criminal."
I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article
Good morning! Nothing like checking Tesla stock to get your day started.

Jesus, this testimony from Tiffany Flick, who has since resigned from her position at SSA, about what happened when DOGE arrived, is hard to read. But everybody should read it. Because this is the reality of what’s happening.
UPDATE: The charges against her have been dropped “in the interest of justice” (she bit one of the brownshirts that assaulted her) and the private security firm has lost their license to operate. I hope she sues them into oblivion.
U.S. Attorneys are not the President’s lawyers. They are the United States’ lawyers. You didn’t pledge an oath to a President, you pledged it to the constitution. This statement alone is reason enough to resign.
ICONIC: Yosemite National Park workers just hung an upside-down American flag—THOUSANDS of feet up on El Capitan. That’s not decoration. That’s a distress signal. They’re telling us the country is in danger. Are you paying attention?

Goodnight friends ❤️ Get some sleep.
Every day, I give up
for twenty minutes
but decide to
push through
on the twenty-first.
Survival is a ritual,
a ceremony, and
a practice.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"
Hey Congressional budget hawks, the deficit is around $1.7 trillion. We think we've found a really easy answer for you here of how to bring that to zero

Tyranny requires your fear, your silence, and your compliance.
Democracy requires your courage.
Do not comply in advance. Stand in the way of those who would subvert what the flag represents.
We do not kneel to a would-be king.
Be the friction that slows their progress.
We've reached the first inevitable crossroads.
The question, which is clearly answered in the Constitution, is: "Does the executive branch have to obey the judicial?"
What happens if the executive branch says "my ball, my rules"?
Stay tuned.
@rbhubbell.bsky.social says it’s time for the Dem MOC to implement a Shadow Cabinet. @timothysnyder.bsky.social has been sounding the alarm to do this. Robert’s suggestions who should be on it are in his article. We can add to it. @repjasmine.bsky.social comes to mind. Let’s do this! 202-224-3121.
It's week 4 of 208.
With your support, we've built a stronger, more diverse coalition of #AltGov accounts, countered their fictions with facts, performed our 1st coordinated drop of bluesky, & found 10s of 1000s of fellow citizens who are standing firm against this coup.
We, the People, are #AltGov
Please read all of this. It's true. Although our Foreign Service personnel are now back in our systems this chaos puts their lives at risk. #USAIDfacts

Trump/Musk may have silenced the CDC and NIH, but they can't stifle free speech itself.
The American Medical Association is using its YouTube channel to provide updates & explainers on everything from H5N9 to why eggs cost so much.

This is what employees at the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau woke up to this morning.
And their website is offline. It looks like Vought shuttered the agency without notice.
Alaska lawmakers have overwhelmingly approved a resolution urging President Trump to abandon his plans to rename the continent’s largest mountain from Denali back to Mount McKinley. #ISTANDWITHDENALI

We are excited to introduce you to @altssa.bsky.social
They are an experienced asset who is bravely joining the fray... and really cool!
Please give AltSSA a warm welcome!
This would be another illegal EO by the Orange Idiot.
Congress is who creates these agencies and only congress can defund or disband them.
This will never stand in court.
