Rep Crow and colleagues: whatever topics and policy areas I may agree or disagree with you about, I agree with you and appreciate you here. Your message was clear, on point and openly LAWFUL. Thank you for the encouragement to the troops to do what is RIGHT.

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution.

In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

Uphold and Defend the President no matter what he orders?
No.
Uphold and defend the Constitution of the Unoted States of America.
That is the oath.
The video in question refers to not obeying UNLAWFUL orders.
Uphold lawful ones, and
#DontGiveUpTheShip

Start calling for resignation. Even if you don’t have the power to impeach, there’s no reason why this should be ignored long term. Don’t normalize this shit.

What gets me is how little people have ACTUALLY LISTENED to the video on orders. They say to not follow ILLEGAL orders. Not disregard all orders, or orders they "don't like." But unlawful ones.

True, there may well be consequences from people who insist THEIR orders are necessarily lawful. #LeSigh

WTAF.

One can oppose the madness of...frankly every idolatrous deviation from God’s gift and pure design of sexuality, AND deeply love and serve our neighbors, "not hurt or harm our neighbor in his body, but help and support him in every physical need." SC

Deep sympathy for these victims of sin & crime.

I agree it shouldn't be grounds for dismissal.

Left ≠ Liberal
Not the same thing!

What the heck value is there in being GREAT if you're not DECENT?

I do not understand appointing him Sec HHS. I have plenty of OPINIONS, more than I have medical knowledge tbh. So does...that guy over there. Can we be Asst. Sec's? Or do we need money, name and videos?

I do not think that this firing is just if it singled him out.
e.g. if policy of No flags but US flag" was in place, was it enforced toward others?

I am Christian and believe homosexuality to be wrong.
Yet, I work with many people I would likely not socialize with, and they're great at their jobs!

YouTube video by Midwestern Marx How the U.S. Became the World’s Dominant Superpower

I love my country (#USA) and want it to be great - I want other countries to be great, too, by the way. This doesn't mean I like everything our government (any branch) does.
Here is a short from @midwesternmarx.bsky.social
about some very unlikeable US practices:

A four-panel illustration showing that diabetes can affect people at any stage of life. Top left: A child stands with one foot on a football while checking their blood glucose with a small device. Top right: A pregnant woman sits comfortably on a sofa and checks her blood sugar while another woman looks on supportively. Bottom left: A middle-aged construction worker wearing a hard hat and safety vest checks his glucose monitor while speaking with a colleague. Bottom right: An older woman in a wheelchair reads a book with a smiling young girl beside her, who is holding a cat. The panels are labelled: “Diabetes can… affect people… at any stage… of life.”

Today is #WorldDiabetesDay.

#Diabetes can affect anyone, at any stage of life.

Support at home, school, work and during pregnancy makes a real difference.

Listen, learn and show up for those living with diabetes. More info 🔗 bit.ly/4hUOjY0

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not just the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

1/3
Supervisors 🚨 Enforcing a ban on telework for employees with disabilities is *illegal.*

You can (will) be personally held responsible for violations.

Stop telling staff they must come in or use leave.

Every accommodation request must be reviewed individually.

2/3
Federal law requires agencies to provide reasonable accommodations to employees with disabilities.

Telework can be one of these if it lets someone perform their essential job duties.

Blanket bans are unlawful.

Thank you for pointing this out. In an era where some are insisting they ARE "the law," we nedd regular reminders that we are ALL under & protected by various laws. Even if you're orange.

Kat, know that people are praying for you ... without accusations and odd gifts.
I imagine I disagree with you on issues and agree with you on others - all well and good.
I believe governments are God’s ministers / hands for punishing evildoers and maintaining good order.

I think I'll go to Little Bear coffee, or just have some (non Starbux) coffee at home.

Repost if you support Starbucks’ striking workers!!! #NoContractNoCoffee

Yes, there's definitely that. I think the red hats have been such a large group because it is made up from many factions, including a large contingent of these xenophobes you described.

I can't afford to get #starbucks much, so as much as I support @sbworkersunited.org and other workers, it is not like the company is feeling much loss at all where I'm concerned! All the same, I'll drink my coffee - at home in part in #solidarity and in part because it is already paid for #coffee!

TODAY: Minneapolis 📍@SBWorkersUnited baristas have launched a strike alongside other stores nationwide. Don’t shop at Starbucks and take action: seiu.co/NoStarbucks #NoContractNoCoffee

I think many are hanging onto what they thought it was going to be - how thry want America to be great as opposed to America becoming Donald Trump's.

Note that I said it seems strange. Not "wrong."
Yes, they should benefit from their own work.
I wonder how it affects recruiting and team esprit de corps, but I think the transfer portal moving players around more than a chess game affects that way more.

President Trump pushes to exclude college athletes from the free market Most would prefer to keep politics out of sports.

No surprise DJT wants to meddle in college sports.

To me it seems strange for college student athletes to make millions; that is individual thinking; I realize that AND it has no policy implications. I don't know how much some big Unis make but it has to be YUGE!

Just a term for...while I did not wish ill for him as a man, hisband and father, I did not like his policies. I was very Republican.
I am still generally conservative. I just care more about people - and I respect this gesture (a genuine one).

Never had one of those hats. Spent my $ on better things - sometimes on others.
