Federal Workers Alliance for Democracy calls on their fellow federal workers to protect the constitution in the wake of the arrests of Don Lemon and Georgia Fort

To our fellow federal workers: the choice is in your hands.

We swore an oath to protect the constitution, not help dismantle it.

Statement from Michael and Susan Pretti
Parents of Alex Jeffrey Pretti

โ€œWe are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately, he will not be with us to see his impact.

I do not throw around the โ€˜heroโ€™ term lightly. However, his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trumpโ€™s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He had his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down, all while being pepper sprayed. 

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

Renee Good's last words were "I'm not mad at you, bro"

Alex Pretti's last words were "are you okay?"

I am mad.

I am not okay.

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.

The next could be you.

Whatโ€™s at stake isnโ€™t just our democracy. Itโ€™s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.

This is personal โ€” to every one of us.

What Noem & Vance are saying about Renee Good are not mistakes. They are calculated lies.

They get away with them by hollowing out DHS oversight & creating the conditions for real harm.

Accountability starts with us. Share this. Correct the record. Make sure the truth travels farther than the lie.

Mamdani's Executive Order Number 1, as described in the post.

Mamdani's Executive Order Number 1, as described in the post.

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.

He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Imagine, if you will, that NASA updated its website to suggest gravity might not exist, prompting CalTech and CERN to release statements saying, "With great sadness, we can no longer recommend listening to NASA."

This is what's happening in epidemiology.

ALL of us who served honorably in the military swore the lifelong oath to protect the Constitution from ALL enemies, foreign and domestic. We, who served honorably, have never forgotten that oath. Some of our non military leaders seem to forget they swore to protect the Constitution. I Wonder Why?

My guess is that Trump didnโ€™t understand the anti-establishment POV of democratic socialists and Mamdani went into Oval Office in true Bernie fashion and said something like โ€œFuck Hillary!โ€ And Trump was like, this muthafucka is singing my song!

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.
