People felt that way because of the heavy police presence during Ferguson when they brought in military style weapons to use on the citizens of that area. I did like however how
@John Heilmann responded that the highest crime is in red areas with republican governors

@morningjoe-msnbc.bsky.social I am listening to Joe Scarborough right now and he’s full of shit. How is he trying to compare what’s happening in DC to the defund the police movement. The police movement had nothing to do with removing the police it had to do w/ moving funds from one area to another

NATO chief predicts China's plan for Taiwan

Congratulations to #rickeybell #NE4LIFE

No truer words have ever been spoken

Trump only does what benefits him he cares about no one. But pretty soon his supporters would see them who am I kidding? No they won’t. They would just blame Biden or Obama.

I am so glad he is alive. We all thought he wasn’t. They need to send him back to his wife and family

Didn't know I needed this, but I did. You might needed it too. 🤣

@booker.senate.gov was amazing he did an excellent job

It’s not over. Keep it going

I loved it thank you

Just know,

Mike Johnson n the republicans are actively giving away their power. There are 3 branches of government for a reason. MikeJohnson should know better. CHECK AND BALANCES.

1. Safety in numbers.
If you are not in signal chats already, find one. You disseminate information and learn faster with your trusted colleagues. Even if you are wary of sharing, at least listen.

2. Wait before taking any action.
Yesterday’s “Fork in the Road” email was reminiscent of ours. It meant nothing for us and it means nothing for you. Glad legal minds have debunked it.

3. Expect performances of loyalty. At Twitter they had our engineers print out their code, line up and have their code reviewed. This was obviously stupid and purely performative. You will likely have to do something similar. It won’t help you keep your job.

4. You cannot rely on leadership to protect/cover for you. If you are a team lead, QUIETLY prioritize your teams health.
The painful reality is that many managers will throw whoever under the bus for self preservation. If you’re one who gives a shit, knowing your job is on the line, hold space.

4a. If you are a leader who gives a shit, help with an exit strategy.
Many gov employees haven’t been on the market in a long time. OFF OF GOV TECH - arrange resume reviews, hold informal sessions with industry colleagues. Ironically, I did this for my team with gov teams in 2022.

I Watched Elon Musk Kill Twitter’s Culture From the Inside This bizarre episode in social-media history proves that it’s well past time for meaningful tech oversight.

5. Your culture will die. The hardest lesson I learned is how fragile culture is. It’s more painful than you think. I wrote a whole oped about it. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

6. Don’t expect lawsuits to save you.
Too many people are placing their anger behind a legal system expecting to sue. It’s 2025 and most of us at Twitter are still waiting for any resolution. Trump and Elon have the same strategy of legal attrition.

7. Preserve your sanity. This is a marathon, not a sprint. You don’t have to know every detail of everything happening. It’s a lot of theater. Try to read the signals in the noise and then throw your phone in a closet and take a walk.

Question - does this include datasets?

If you are a gov employee please do not use your gov devices to coordinate.

Do not use standard messaging on your Android or Apple devices. Don’t use WhatsApp. These CEOs will likely give your messages if asked by the administration.

Please use Signal and set your messages to autodelete.

Government lawyers with ethics concerns look for help amid Trump crackdown Some lawyers hope that bar associations, which have themselves been targeted by Trump, will come to their aid.

👋 legal profession!

"With the Trump administration warning career lawyers to follow orders even if they have ethical qualms, pressure is building on professional legal associations to take a stance against efforts to upend long-standing norms of public service..."
