If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.

Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.

But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.

They aren’t firing for a reason.

Just in: The US economy grew 2.8% in 2024, another year of strong growth.

President Trump inherited a very good economy.
Q4 growth was 2.3%, driven mainly by strong consumer spending.

GDP growth under Biden (adj. for inflation)
6.1% in 2021
2.5% in 2022
2.9% in 2023
2.8% in 2024

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Gov. Tim Walz slammed Trump's federal funding freeze as ‘stupid, buffoonish, childish,’ emphasizing the threat it posed to $1.8 billion in monthly state funding. Luckily, a federal judge has blocked the ill-conceived freeze until Feb 3.

Jim Acosta's closing message is a must-watch.
Jim Acosta announces on air that he's leaving CNN and says, "it is never a good time to bow down to a tyrant ... don't give in to the lies."

I’m telling everyone: Do not open the door or say a word unless you’re expecting someone and know exactly who it is.

Know your rights. Pass these around…

TT: simbatiktok66

I’ve been so stressed about my state of California bending the knee and while I still fear decorum this brings me to ease. Remember, CA is critical to taming DT. 5th largest economy has weight that can benefit all.

Democrats are calling for an investigation into election interference over Donald Trump's "Vote Counting Computer" Remark.

Even if nothing is there -- there's nothing wrong with checking to see.

Do not be deterrents.

Move.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

From Donald Trump during his January 19th rally:

"He (Elon Musk) was very effective. He knows those computers better than anybody. Those vote-counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania in a landslide. It was pretty good. Thank you to Elon."

That sounds like a confession to me.

There is something I have been wondering and haven't been able to find an answer for.

Let's say our delulu thinking come true today or tomorrow. What happens? Does she automatically get it and how do they explain that? Do they need to have another contest? Something else? Tell me your thoughts.
