Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

This country is becoming unrecognizable. What we’re seeing is state-funded fear. We’ve warned people: keep filming, go live on social media so these moments are documented and shared. This wasn’t a case involving masked ICE agents—but that’s happening too.

Protest malarkey April 2, 1 pm at building 31.

This bitch right here never fucking left his office during the RIF’s yesterday. What he did fucking do is get sworn in as commissioner in a fucking private meeting away from those being forced out. If you want to protest this piece of shit, here is your time and place.

@alttaxpro.altgov.info so what's up with taxes if we have no programs/departments left that our taxes go towards. I certainly do not want to pay for some *insert colorful phrase here* to play golf all day.

Sitting there quietly and normalizing this fucking bullshit isn’t what this fucking country needs either. The Dems better fucking do something and not sit there like fucking lumps of shit.

BREAKING: We're sending an open letter to universities across the country, offering support and urging them to reject pressure to punish international students and faculty for exercising their First Amendment rights.

@governorferguson.bsky.social what is the State of Washington going to say about your state's higher education entities not being able to utilize their 1A rights?

You won't have any higher education left in the state, but you do you.

We need more of this!
