If you are a service member or civil servant ordered to perform an operation in spite of concerns you raised about their legality, you have lawful options to blow the whistle. They do not involve leaking to the press.

Consult with qualified counsel. You can honor your Oath without breaking the law.

Boat strikes put US service members in legal jeopardy:

"Some junior officers have asked military lawyers, known as judge advocates general or JAGs, for written sign-off before taking part in strikes .... It does not appear that such memos were furnished, said one of the people."

This (moderate) level of racial competency is VERY rare for someone of this demo; white folks should’ve been listening to and learning from people like this for decades.

Sadly, it’s too late to dismantle racism, now. Racism has won.
White America chose it instead of a hyper-qualified Black Woman. 🙁

As a trauma survivor, I agree. When at rock bottom & on the verge of breaking, I hope you find that spark of resistence within that flicks your own switch back to the ON position.

From there, YOU decide what unacceptable is & defend for the common good. 🗽

Okay, team! The food bank donations have blown past the $500 I have to match donations, but let's see if we can get volunteers to keep it going and match the ones I can't. I'll reply in a moment with the list of donations still waiting for matches, so please reply if you can match one of them!

It’s so f*cking hard to watch years of work and dedication, our collective effort to make communities safer, amount to so little as the government is dismantled from the top down.

While I'm all for ensuring that folks get paid, agreeing to this would only serve to weaken the Dems position.

Turns out the movie “Idiocracy” envisioned too many standing trees at the White House.

Looks like it did predict a missing East Wing, though 😧

6/6
This is a reminder: public engagement matters. Even an administration often hostile to regulation is sensitive to pressure and bad press. Keep speaking up. Small wins chip away at bad policies and protect public health. 🧬

🎶Big woman
And a short short man
And he loves it
When she beats his brains out
He's pecked to death
But he loves the pain
And he loves it
When she calls him names🎶

Narcissists and masochists love nothing more than when you play their games with them.
