Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

An EPA staffer says this message is going around re: latest Microsoft computer update:

"It’s likely your status on Teams is being monitored, and a hint was dropped to us by someone higher up in EPA that they may be monitoring Teams calls.

We now have to be careful of what we say on Teams calls."

THIS IS ILLEGAL.

He literally does not have legal authority to do this. Do NOT obey in advance.
Donald Trump has just released a national under 18 trans care ban executive order. I am working through specifically how it tries to do this, and will live tweet here section by section as I read through it.

It is not yet on the website, but has been released via press release.

NEW: My staff has confirmed reports that Medicaid portals are down in all 50 states following last night's federal funding freeze. This is a blatant attempt to rip away health care from millions of Americans overnight and will get people killed.

It’s a good time to have the conversation,

“Can we turn the storage room into a spare bedroom?”
“Is our grocery budget large enough for one more person?”
“Am I okay with lying to a police officer about someone living here?”

Would you harbor a fugitive whose only crime was being illegalized?
would you hide a trans person in your basement when they come for us?
okay you have "resist" in your bio and you're online calling him "Drumpf" but like, do your friends and neighbors trust you? do you actually have their back? do people who need help know they can come to you or do you think posting is enough?

You’ll probably see this screenshot floating around a lot but it really was wonderful to see Lynch put a scene in Twin Peaks: The Return where he has his character literally stare at the camera and say that you should either support trans people or die. I needed to hear that in 2017
