How did it IMMEDIATELY turn into βletβs buy polka dot dressesβ for some people? π Iβm so genuinely confused π€£
It used to be that a "dot gov" website was a trusted resource. But that is NO LONGER THE CASE.

Scroll through these screenshots. I am LIVID.
If the criticism of a woman is βsheβs meanβ and thatβs it, I really donβt care.
AND???
Is she racist? βNo, but sheβs likeβ¦mean.β
Okkkkβ¦
Is she a bigot??? βNo!!! But I heard a rumor that she isnβt nice.β
Ok, cool story bro.

Education Department spokeswoman Madi Biedermann told the Washington Post that *NO such agreement has been signed*
I'd rather be last to report on something and accurate vs. first and wrong.

20.10.2025 23:41 β π 4 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0As the day ends and the deadline passes for universities to respond to Trump's "Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education," Vanderbilt and University of Texas never responded.
Penn, Brown, USC, Dartmouth, University of Virginia, University of Arizona, and MIT all rejected it
BREAKING: University of Arizona becomes the latest university to reject Trump's proposed loyalty oath that would ask universities to trade academic freedom for preferential funding.
Today is the deadline for universities to respond. We are waiting on University of Texas and Vanderbilt.
Trump is shooting missles over the 5 as a show of force π
18.10.2025 21:22 β π 28 π 5 π¬ 4 π 0Reminder: The latest cuts to the department of education have been PAUSED (not stopped) because the cuts are related to the firing of federal workers and THOSE were paused.
A lot of people/orgs are not reporting this accurately because theyβre a few days behind.
We will learn more on 10/28.
Defendants are going to file a list of everyone who was RIFed within two days.
βIt would be helpful if those documents were filed by people who know what theyβre talking aboutβ - A summary of what the Judge said.
As of RIGHT NOW 11:30 AM Pacific time, the RIFs are STOPPED until further notice.
No more RIF notices, the RIFs issued cannot be enforced or continued. Federal employees are no longer allowed to WORK on RIFs.
The defenseβs argument is βyou can fix this laterβ & the plaintiff is like βlosing your healthcare is not something you can just fix laterβ
(Some employees being RIFed are pregnant & about to give birth & are afraid of losing their healthcare but HR has been fired too so nobody can help them)
The administration fired the people working on measles outbreaks at HHS and then tried to blame it on βan errorβ
15.10.2025 18:14 β π 16 π 4 π¬ 0 π 1The plaintiffs say the president and OMB (Russell Vought) yapping is the proof that these RIFs are happening and should be stopped.
They never shut the fuck up about what theyβre doing, so we KNOW more cuts are coming.
Iβm summarizing lol
Here comes the plaintiffs!!! π
15.10.2025 18:08 β π 8 π 3 π¬ 0 π 1The defense is now trying to argue that the court shouldnβt be able to stop the RIFs because the RIFs arenβt done being issued and there are not final numbers of how many people were RIFed. (RIFed = fired) β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
15.10.2025 18:07 β π 10 π 4 π¬ 1 π 1π£οΈ GET UP, DEFENSE!!!
Theyβre arguing that there is not βirreparable harmβ for these employees because the fired employees can just sue in lower courts and be told βsorry we canβt helpβ and then appeal to a different court.
Itβs not gonna fly. The judge is talking to her like sheβs crazy.
βThere might never be a RIF at allβ - the defense, inexplicably. Lmaoooooo oh my god the judge haaaaaates theemmmmmmmm
15.10.2025 17:58 β π 8 π 3 π¬ 0 π 1Iβm taking notes of everything the judge is saying. Sheβs eating the defense up. Itβs lookin good. Iβll put together a recap ASAP.
15.10.2025 17:55 β π 14 π 4 π¬ 0 π 1The defense didnβt prepare to address the merits of the case. βJust because you didnβt prepare to doesnβt mean you donβt have to.β - The Judge
She says they βdonβt have a defense for why it is okay to do what they are doing.β
They came to court unprepared.
Right out the gate: the judge says she wants to agree with the plaintiffs that these RIFs were illegal.
15.10.2025 17:41 β π 15 π 3 π¬ 0 π 1I'm currently listening to the hearing regarding the (possibly illegal) firings of federal employees. Those fired include basically the entire office of special education programs.
