Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

Goodness, Kristi Noem is really a hands-on boss at ICE, personally making raids on houses and conducting her signature canine assassinations.

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.

These federal firings have nothing whatsoever to do with the government shutdown, and if that is not the lede of every report discussing them, and if you are the author of any such report, quit your job and learn to surf or something instead

ICE official testifies that DHS “prematurely” sent Abrego Garcia a notice that he would be removed to Ghana.

Just this morning, Ghana’s foreign minister wrote on X that the country had “directly and unambiguously conveyed to US authorities” that Abrego cannot be deported there.

Ghana is not accepting Abrego Garcia.
He cannot be deported to Ghana.
This has been directly and unambiguously conveyed to US authorities.
In my interactions with US officials, I made clear that our understanding to accept a limited number of non-criminal West Africans, purely on the grounds of African solidarity and humanitarian principles would not be expanded.
Ghana strongly objects to these misleading media reports.

“Can you show us a video of Portland in flames?”

Is a question someone needs to ask the frickin’ President of the United States.

So greasy fascist lunatic Peter Thiel thinks Greta Thunberg may be the Antichrist?

Guess whose name appears in the Epstein Files that have been released, Peter? No hers. Yours!

So that, technically, makes you more evil than the Antichrist.

[Excerpt:] Tech billionaire Peter Thiel recently warned that Swedish activist Greta Thunberg & critics of tech or AI are “legionnaires of the Antichrist” in private lectures on Christianity that linked government oversight of Silicon Valley to an apocalyptic future.

Inside billionaire Peter Thiel’s private lectures: Warnings of ‘the Antichrist’ and U.S. destruction

In leaked recordings of private lectures by tech billionaire Peter Thiel he argued that “the Antichrist” is likely to take the form of a critic of technology.

A few other notable Dr. Seuss political cartoons:

Cartoon: Two men stand on a platform with an intertwined beard. One says "America First" and the other wears a swastika. A circus manager announces to the crowd:

Caption: And on this platform, folks, those most perplexing people... The Lads with the Siamese Beard! Unrelated by blood, they are joined in a manner that mystifies the mightiest minds in the land!

Cartoon: a woman with an "America First" sweater reads to two children from a book entitled "Adolf the Wolf"

Caption: and the Wolf chewed up the children and spit out their bones... But those were FOREIGN CHILDREN and it really didn't matter.

Cartoon: A man with a "Profiteer" emblazoned coat sells umbrellas during a flood to people taking refuge on rooftops. A swastika can be seen in the torrential rain.

Caption: Beware the man who makes a fortune in a flood!

another wave of illegal and immoral RIFs are underway tonight. I'm hearing that feds not only feds with reasonable accommodations are being targeted but also the departments that determine what RAs are.
