More than 5,000 federal employees have received layoff notices. We’re working to ensure that the administration isn’t using state voter rolls to target registered Democrats for termination. More details soon.

Apparently, people trying to keep us alive are too "woke" to keep their jobs.

I don't even need to see the Epstein files. The fact that orange hogzilla doesn't want them released tells me that there are pictures of him with naked children. He's not concerned about naked over 18 women. He flaunts those pictures. Pedophile loser. And he'll get away with that too.

Stephen Miller claims plenary authority proves that he is running the executive branch and using the orange bloated tamale as a puppet to distract the media. He's a scumbag ghoul puppeting the orange assclown.

Great point from @mjtoma.bsky.social: Millions of us absolutely do see what's happening to the USA.

"We are horrified, shocked, enraged, and ashamed. We are acting, in a thousand ways, to oppose it. This cannot, and will not, be how the United States ends."

While Trump is busy licking his wounds in public, this week his loyalist have fought tooth and nail to prevent the US congress from releasing the Epstein files and have declared anti-fascism terrorism punishable by arbitrary arrest or assassination.

MAGA wants to redefine anti-fascism so they can have a blanket term to "justify" murdering and kidnapping everyday Americans that question the Trump regime, call out its numerous criminal actions, and / or ask for the release of the Epstein files.

There is no need for the insurrection act if they can simply label you a terrorist.

Trump has begun dismissing federal workers, with furloughed staff at the Department of Health and Human Services now facing permanent layoffs. The cuts are hitting the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention especially hard.

The regime is:

- losing ground to a guy in a frog suit
- making up stories about Portland
- terrified of the Epstein Files
- making up fake arrests of imaginary girlfriends
- babbling incoherently about cognitive tests

Do not despair. These people are losing and they know it.
