The UK has a shadow cabinet - political positions within the party that isn’t in power - and so should we. Plus, we need weekly press briefings led by @petebuttigieg.bsky.social on the state of the union. Business-as-usual time is over.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS IN CASE OF ICE: CONOCE TUS DERECHOS EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:

DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR. ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge. Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door. NO ABRAS TU PUERTA. ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.

ASK THEM TO LEAVE. If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission. 2 PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN. Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.

REMAIN SILENT. You have the right to remain silent. If the agents ask you questions, tell them, "I wish to remain silent." PERMANECE EN SILENCIO. Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio. Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles: "Deseo permanecer en silencio".

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING. Do not sign any document without speaking to a lawyer. 5 NO FIRMES NADA. No firmes ningún documento sin hablar con un abogado.

SPEAK TO A LAWYER. Consult with a lawyer ahead of time. If you are arrested, ICE will not provide you with a lawyer, so be prepared. CONSULTA CON UN ABOGADO. Consulta con un abogado con anticipación. Si te arrestan, ICE no te dará un abogado, así que prepárate

So you didn’t like the halftime show?

Keep your eye on the ball. JD Vance is laying the groundwork for Trump to defy court orders, weaken the courts, and dismantle checks and balances on the presidency.

Concerns arose when it was suggested that employees’ personal data be aggregated in ways that would violate privacy laws without consent. When an employee raised this issue, the response was that they would “try to get consent,” but that it shouldn’t stop them from moving forward with the project.

While Trump has been distracting America with everything else, Elon Musk’s staffers are quietly taking over NOAA and the Department of Labor. They are also using AI to help rewrite a significant portion of the federal government’s computer systems.

House Democrats made an unsuccessful attempt to subpoena billionaire Elon Musk to testify about his efforts to radically reshape the federal government, only to be blocked by Republicans.

Notably, many of the targets are Black employees working at health agencies. This disturbing attempt to intimidate and undermine public servants comes from AAF, a small right-wing nonprofit founded in 2020. Enough is enough.

The group claims these workers, included in their “D.E.I. bureaucrat watch list,” supported diversity initiatives, criticized Trump on social media, or made donations to Democrats.

The American Accountability Foundation (AAF) has published a list with the names and photos of over 50 people—many involved in programs focused on improving the health of people of color.

Okay, pardon us, but F this. America, you’ve got to stand up.
