Here we come

👀👀

I read this yesterday, and the post stuck with me.

I believe if you’re here— you’re not in a “fuge state.”

You know what’s at stake; you’re taking action by staying aware and spreading the word.

It’s good to be here with you 💚

Holy 💩!

Federal Protections Board Orders USDA to Reinstate 5k Workers Read more here.

NEW: The Merit Systems Protection Board, which protects the rights of federal employees, ordered the Department of Agriculture to reinstate over 5,000 probationary workers who were let go as a result of Trump’s attempts to lean out the federal workforce.

If you are a federal employee in Minnesota and recently lost your job, we'd like to talk to you. Please contact reporter Janet Moore at JMooreStrib.60 on the encrypted messaging app Signal. You can also email us at whistleblower@startribune.com. We strongly encourage you to use a personal device.

🚨911 Federal Employees Here is how you respond to the email....
#revolution2025

Federal workers are held accountable to their supervisors and the American people - not Elon Musk and his DOGE cronies. It’s time for my colleagues on the other side of the aisle to stand up for our civil servants. It’s time to #pushback. See part one of my message here:

That’s my governor!

I can’t believe you’re normalizing this.

Yeah, that email was infuriating! He was normalizing actions that are squarely unconstitutional and putting our personal information at risk. Not to mention siding against our European allies.

Trump job cuts could throw national parks and forests into 'staffing chaos' As their ranks diminish, park rangers say fewer employees could mean long entry lines, dirty bathrooms and potentially unsafe conditions for hikers and campers.

This is why you fight these cowards.

The moment you stand up to them, they crumble.

Homan has nothing. The Fourth Amendment is clear and I am well within my duties to educate people of their rights.

He can threaten me with jail and call names all he wants. He’s got nothing else.

Waking up to the start of a new workweek. Reminders:

1) employees who have been terminated have the right to a performance appraisal. Be sure to give them one.
2) terminated employees can send any appraisal refuting their letter up the chain of command (including HR and Dep. Dir.). Make a record.

10) care for yourself in a healthy way. Be wary of alcohol or too much stress eating. Don’t let them win by hurting yourself.

Know you are appreciated and valued. Have a good start to the workweek.

State AGs are looking for federal workers who have just been illegally fired to stand as litigants in a new lawsuit trying to freeze further action by DOGE.

DM me if that’s you and you’re interested and you’re live in one of the following states: NM, AZ, CA, CT, MD, MI, MN, NV, OR, WA, RI, or VT.

New Dem Paper is out, on the Valentine's Day Massacre.

It isn’t about cutting red tape, it’s about lighting the match and watching the whole god damn system go up in flames.

This is golden. 🤣

Go NTEU! Doreen Greenwald is a powerful voice fighting for our rights as feds.

“All of these orders are further evidence that this administration is motivated not by efficiency, but by cruelty and a total disregard for the government services that will be lost,” Greenwald said.

A wildlife conservation worker photographed on the job in a boggy wetland gestures with a “thumbs up.”

Today I was fired from my permanent Kauai NWR Complex Biologist position with no warning, locked out of my email by 3pm on the same day I barely had time to get the documents I need to file for unemployment. This is coming directly from the Trump administration and is likely illegal but somehow has not been stopped. Three of my amazing co-workers were also fired; the critical skilled biologists and habitat restoration experts, who are in the field day in and day out, pouring their blood, sweat and tears into conserving native Hawaiian birds and habitats. This was not just a job for us, this was our everything, caring for the aina. For me it was the dream job of all dream jobs. I have no idea what I'll do now, I thought I would be in that position for a very long time. I even bought a horse in December with the notion of a permanent, salaried position.

I really have no words right now; we are literally watching our democracy slip away from us. Now is not the time to sit back and "wait and see". I gave an oath of office on my first day that I would defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. How is this not a domestic enemy?! These billionaires have so much money they have everything they could ever want and more .... this is literally just Hunger Games or Squid Games. It's just little chess pieces, some funny little game to them. There Is going to be nothing left of this country by the end of the week. It's time we stand up, before it's too late.

I just got a report that a terminated employee from another agency got their job back after replying to the termination email with their good perf appraisal.

If you are still connected, might as well try. It makes for good documentation if nothing else.

Let me know. So far only this one anecdote.

1/29: First plane crash in 16 years in DC
1/31: Crash in Philly
2/5: Delta flight struck in Seattle
2/6: Flight wrecks in Alaska
2/10: Crash in Scottsdale
2/12: Military jet crashes in San Diego
2/16: Crash in Covington, GA

7 crashes since the WH congratulated itself for “restoring aviation safety”

This negotiation between the US and Russia, and cutting out Ukraine, is just like when Trump cut out Afghanistan and negotiated with Taliban.

We see how that “good deal” turned out. Afghanistan was on Trump

Every Trump deal fails

The govt is being dismantled from within as the constitution is shredded. Real people and communities are suffering as a result. And here you are, patting yourself on the back for your bravery in being a blue dog? You couldn’t be more out of touch. Do something useful!

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany on Saturday accused Vice President JD Vance of unacceptably interfering in his country’s coming elections on behalf of a party that has played down the atrocities committed by the Nazis. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/15/w...

It's payback time. Let's hold Senate Republicans accountable for enabling the Trump/Musk coup.

Coups don’t happen without enablers. They happen because senators like Collins, Tillis, Sullivan, Husted and Ernst let them.

Our campaign is focused on holding these Republicans accountable for every piece of the Project 2025 agenda that Trump and Musk are able to implement due to their complicity.
