For security reasons we don’t post on TikTok or Meta platforms. But we applaud everyone speaking out. These cuts hurt all Americans.

Gabbard, Hegseth, and Waltz all perjured themselves on public television about a breach of NATIONAL SECURTY!

Where is the same outrage that came when Bill Clinton lied about sex, that didn’t breach security?

In a nutshell:

— The Espionage Act contains a provision that criminalizes the disclosure of national secrets through gross negligence.

— The law does not require that the info be classified, it refers simply to national defense information.

Arrest them. Immediately.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.
Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Securing your phone before entering the USA. 🧵
At CDC we travel around the globe to confront health threats and have never worried about returning home. Yet more researchers, including US Citizens, are having their phones searched at Customs.

I've seen dozens of clips today of Dems decrying this security lapse. Pete Buttigieg's statement is especially powerful.

The lives of American troops - and every American life - depends on the people in charge of our government taking their responsibilities seriously. But again and again, including with the incompetence that came to light today, they are demonstrating the opposite.

❤️BREAKING❤️ - Bernie Sanders before 20k People in Tucson:

"They have the wealth. They have all the money in the world. They have the power. They have the media. But you know what they don’t have? We’ve got 20,000 people here in Tucson and we got 100's of millions of people all across this country."

The Democrats and all the nation needs to stand up and say NO to this would be tyrant before he finishes destroying our government and our way of life!! We must act NOW, not wait until the midterms, before it’s too late and they control everything and criminalize dissent!

Trump is targeting law firms that defend federal employees, expanding his campaign of retaliation against lawyers he opposes. A new memorandum threatens to use government power to punish any firm that, in his view, unfairly challenges his administration.

Follow the money and see where it goes. Nothing like buying our Congress. Musk has made the maximum allowable donation to members of Congress who support impeaching federal judges who are impeding actions taken by Trump.

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific.

If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

Where are the patriots? Where are the people who actually believe in the constitution. Where are the 30% who didn’t bother to vote but who hate what’s going on? This is the time for people who believe in the promise of this country, its Constitution, and its laws to step up and stop the insanity!!

And there it is.
DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.
