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.

Thank you for speaking up about this. Please call it what it is β€” a coup. Tell the American people what we can do to stop this hostile takeover of our democratic institutions.

I feel like we are in that opening scene of Red Dawn where the Soviet Army parachutes into middle America. The media & congress are that principal of the high school that walks onto the field of paratroopers & says β€œwhat’s going on here my friend?!” The rest of us are already shouting β€œWolverines!”

It’s official: Elon Musk’s staffers have now illegally obtained classified information from the USAID office.

Here’s a recap of what’s happening:

It’s terrifying and demoralizing. We need to press congress ti intervene.

The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding Elon Musk’s Government Takeover Engineers between 19 and 24, most linked to Musk’s companies, are playing a key role as he seizes control of federal infrastructure.

This is a hostile takeover of the machinery of the government by non-governmental employees. In other words, this is a coup.

This is a coup. Why is the media (with a few exceptions) not calling it what it is?!

Not that you need validation, but 100% this.

It’s just like twitter, but not owned by a fascist megalomaniac, so better.

Hey Sarah! Thank you for connecting on Bluesky. FB is turning into a real cesspool. I’m hoping to shift my social engagement to this platform. It will take some effort and habit forming.

Elon Musk Ignites Online Speculation Over the Meaning of a Hand Gesture Speaking at a celebratory rally in Washington, Mr. Musk twice extended his arm out with his palm facing down, drawing comparisons to the Nazi salute.

In this moment when antisemitism has reached a new high, this is outrageous behavior. At a Presidential rally no less.

Donald Trump should condemn it. And Elon Musk owes our country an apology.
