Keep boycotting.

I'm all in for going back to democracy any day now, but I also have serious questions about how to survive the techno-idiocracy I'm living in now.
- Should I ask my union to negotiate pay in crypto?
- Are my therapy sessions being recorded and stolen too?
- How long will this shit last?

Your average person doesn’t read Supreme Court (or any court) decisions. And the ones who do are typically other lawyers, who will parse the text very carefully. So who, exactly, is Alito trying to fool with his misleading dissent? Is it supposed to be fodder for Fox News? For Martha? Self-delusion?

Rep. Al Green making a great point about impeachment, invoking a quote attributed to Gandhi:
First they ignore you.
Then they laugh at you.
Then they attack you.
Then you win.
Things may look impossible. But if we remain relentless, we will ensure that the rule of law will prevail.

Will somebody please do a wellness check on the media? They seem to still be writing an awful lot of stories about the guy who is no longer president.
We really could use all resources with spines to actually focus on this fascist fuck of an administration.

Reporter: The president fired the Librarian of Congress. Why?
Leavitt: There were quite concerning things she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting inappropriate books in the library for children.

This Rümeysa Öztürk hearing is radicalizing.
I've been a court reporter for many years, and I've never covered anything like this: A student deeply committed to her studies, imprisoned solely over writing an op-ed, being made to testify under oath for her own freedom.
Dark, dark stuff.

The message is clear,go against this administration & you will find yourself out of a job. We were not the biggest Cam fans but he did grow on us a little and he went down standing on integrity (one of FEMA's core values) by refusing to capitulate to this regimes agenda.
