I'd go further, I'd have the DOJ assign @gtconway.bsky.social as an independent special prosecutor with the scope of anything Epstein related and say do your best!

He’s just stating the facts…

“A parent”.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Notice how while ICE arrests people without a warrant, invades homes without a warrant, & disappears people into death camps—NRA is silent. Know why? Because NRA was never about firearm protection—but about white supremacy protection.

As long as ICE targets mostly Black & brown people, NRA is happy

An owl peeks out from the ground, startled that someone is at the door.

When the doorbell rings.

Library of Congress staff just showed what resistance looks like. After Trump abruptly fired Dr. Carla Hayden, the respected Librarian of Congress, he tried to install Todd Blanche, his former personal lawyer and current Deputy Attorney General, as acting librarian. Staff weren’t having it.

Let's not forget

It can't be all doom and gloom. So each day we try and intersperse our resistance with pictures and words of encouragement.
We can do this
We just have to maintain a positive attitude and keep at it.

To that end

To recap:
—Cost to have a baby: $33K
—Cost for annual childcare: $20K
—Cost of median house: $419K

Meanwhile, Trump's "solution" to the decrease in birth rates?

Give parents $5000 to have a baby.

This isn't just performative—it's offensively stupid.

Moreover, here's what MAGAs WON'T do

Yesterday: Trump officials published a memo saying they want the CFPB to protect service members and veterans.

Today: The Trump admin announced 1,500 layoffs at the CFPB out of 1,700 remaining staffers, effectively killing the agency's ability to function.

I can’t help recalling how rude and confrontational the Oval Office meeting with the polite and cooperative Zelensky was in contrast with how meekly Trump sat silently while the President of El Salvador mocked the notion of helping Donald abide by a unanimous Supreme Court order.

There we go.

Darth Vader being “gracious” and “not fake.” Everything we’ve ever not liked about him is absent in this scene.

Judge Jamee Comans—who worked for ICE 2012-2021—has ruled that the US Govt can deport Mahmoud Khalil simply because Rubio wants him gone.

To be sure—let alone entering evidence that he broke the law, the Govt admits no such evidence exists. His "crime" is his speech for Palestine.

100% Fascism.

text on a gray green background with superimposed trees reads on April 9 secretary Burgum held an all hands meeting for staff of the department of the interior. Here’s some of his lies, and what the truth is below that is the tag @resistancerangers and clipart of a Ranger leading a group of kids.

Text on a gray green background with super imposed trees reads. Burgum claims: the poverty scene on tribal lands is created by dependency on the federal government. Navajo nation, our response: poverty in tribal nations is a result of cultural, genocide and lack of lamb sovereignty. The coal on the Navajo nation has already been deemed not economically viable by coal and mining companies. We encourage you to to learn about #LandBack.

Text on a green gray background with super imposed trees reads Burgum claims: DOI manages $100 trillion in assets and only pulled in $18 billion last year. We should monetize our natural areas and public lands more below. This is clipart of two eagle flying. below the Eagles more text reads our response for those who are you? The private sector can step in, the reality is clear: there’s no profit in protecting clean water, maintaining a remote trail or restoring and endangered species. These are public goods without public investment, they suffer in the lower left corner is clipart of four clams in the lower right corner is clipart of a sea turtle.

Text on a gray green background with superimpose trees reads. Bergum claims: solar energy is unreliable because the sun goes down at night. below that is clipart of a sun. Below that is more text that reads our response: the sun also comes up again in the morning. also batteries and grid storage exist. Rooftop solar power is decentralized clean energy, which lowers electricity bills, and increases energy independence. in the lower left corner there is clipart of three scouts who appear to be looking at the sun

On April 9th, Secretary Doug Burgum held an “All Hands Meeting” for all employees in the Department of the Interior. This meeting was going to highlight the work that the department has done “make the transition to the Trump administration so smooth.” ....right. He made some WILD claims.
