The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!

(1/2) Oh you're a trans ally? Now's the time to actually assist in trans survival then.

Protest for our rights. Speak out against injustices against us. Help us with material aid. Help us live. The time for talking is over, the government literally just put through EO's that make it dangerous...

I'm so sorry for your situation.

I guess time will tell with hers.

Assuming half of what they print is close to the truth, I wish she'd have cooperated with the police. It could have saved many more victims.

Any opinions on the whole Gamain/Palmer article in Vulture magazine?

I am a former incarcerated firefighter. I served in a California fire camp from 2009 to 2012.

Misinformation is afire on the internet, so here are facts about the prison firefighter program, all in one place.

I really wish stupidity was painful. I mean it is, but only for everyone else.
How gratifying it would be to see people being completely obtuse and proudly ignorant double over as it made their organs cavitate.

Buttigieg encourages people to stay engaged as Trump term nears, discusses future "I am not discouraged. I'm not checking out. And I'm not giving up," Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said at the University of Michigan.

Pete Buttigieg encouraged young people at the University of Michigan Monday to "not check out" from news and politics as Republican Donald Trump's term as president nears.

Elijah Cummings, 1 of the greatest EVER in Congress. He ALWAYS stood up FOR the PEOPLE. The words he speaks are from 2019 and asks how history will reflect on that time period. Well, he would be asking the SAME question if he was here today & ALSO if we just "stood on the sidelines & said nothing."👏

I will always be #TeamPete 🐝

Fuck Carrie Underwood, and if you're going to attend or perform at Trump's inauguration, fuck you too. Is the Puerto Rico garbage island guy gonna open for her?

Fanning the flames, indeed.

Until 2002, I was a registered Republican.

America didn’t deserve them.

One day, and in my lifetime, we will have President Buttigieg. I'll proudly vote for him.

I wanna see so many rainbows that he has to pluck his eyes out. 😵

Perfect!

Just desserts.

apparently one of our internet providers' fiber cable got cut this morning, and it has become our problem too. a very "dog ate my homework" excuse but it's real 🥲

thanks for your patience!

Musk quote tweeting Gonzalo Lira's tweet in which he notes he's trying to escape Ukraine and seek asylum in Hungary. Musk asks Joe Biden "what is the status of this American journalist." Community Notes points out that Lira is a YouTuber, and that he violated Ukraine's community code, revealing the location of Western journalists and Ukrainian soldiers.

Elon responding to the fact that he was community noted, saying "Interesting. This Note is being gamed by state actors. Will be helpful in figuring who they are. Thanks for jumping in the honey pot, guys lmao!" Community Notes responds: "Community Notes requires agreement from contributors of differing perspectives, as such it is highly resistant to gaming. The entire Community Notes algorithm and data is open source, and can be reviewed by anyone by following the links on the page below:"

Meanwhile, speaking of Elon, he fell for some propaganda from Tucker Carlson, got Community Noted, then claimed that it was a "honey pot" to find those "gaming" Community Notes... and got Community Noted again calling bullshit on Elon's claim. 😂

Message from a coalition member: Today, a visitor asked me, “Are you scared of losing your job?” I paused and replied, “Honestly, this job is more than just a paycheck. It’s how I support my kids, but it’s also what I love. I take a lot of pride in my work.” (More below)
