USDA hires back all fired workers from past month The department's decision was forced by the MSPB, an independent federal court that focuses on employee complaints. Here's what we know.

This is what happens when you let a billionaire with an axe to grind take his chainsaw to our wildland firefighters. These people defend our homes. They deserve better. They deserve our respect and gratitude. wildfiretoday.com/2025/03/11/u...

Trump and His Droids Go For The Jugular If the courts don't stop them, who will?

"The nation in four weeks has gone from a functioning democracy to an emerging totalitarian dictatorship to a full stop.

The dictatorship is indefinitely paused pending a resolution in the Supreme Court, which will take approximately 18 months unless expedited by SCOTUS."

This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell.

This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Next Tuesday, we won’t waste a second in responding to Trump’s steam of lies at the State of the Union.

I’m not attending in person. Instead I’m partnering w @moveon.org to provide live real time response. Join us to learn the truth about the billionaire seizure of our government.

Huge disconnect between lawmakers who’ve banded together to support a clearly stated goal to extinguish through attrition every human on the planet they deem to be different or less, and the lawmakers who are acting like gaslit abused partners begging them to make it make sense. We’re losing time.

Well VA says we need to justify our existence so I explained in five bullet points my job and the other two vacancies I’m covering while also fighting fascism and praying for world peace and for the healing of their broken, black souls. I found it especially satisfying to use size 500 CurlZ font.

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source.

Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.
