I expect a lot of wifi networks and group chats becoming variations of Houthi PC Small Group... Extra credit for working in a way to troll Vance in the title.

As a constituent, I ask you not to go and further subject that woman to more stress. Wrong optics. Skip it. Please.

Maybe dem reps could hold their own state of the union on the Capitol steps. Steal the spotlight. Let members like AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Max Frost, and the DNC make remarks. Norms don't exist. Buck them.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

Aren't these the same folks pushing for defending parental rights to decide what is given to their children (...covid shot, HPV shot, etc.)...?

DOGE Teen Ran Image-Sharing Site Linked to URLs Referencing Pedophilia and the KKK The site launched by Edward Coristine in 2021 promised to protect the privacy of its users, stating, β€œAll your images are encrypted. We do not log IP addresses, device agents or anything else.”

1. Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old member of DOGE launched an image-sharing website in 2021 that featured custom β€œshitposting” URLs that redirected to content hosted on his site. URLs that redirected to Coristine’s site referenced the sale of child sexual abuse material, racial slurs, and rape.

All members of Congress swore allegiance to the Constitution. They didn't ask just Democrats to defend America against all enemies.

The house is on fire, y'all. I'll do everything I can to extinguish that flame, but I am begging my Republican colleagues to remember their oath.

All kidding aside, the reason he is doing this is to establish some kind of culpability by @profgalloway.com and I. We never threatened these people but it is all in service of getting his supporters to think we did. It’s not a random tweet β€” all planned for a larger effort to silence us or worse.

How a Canadian scientist and a venomous lizard helped pave the way for Ozempic - National | Globalnews.ca In 1984, Dr. Daniel Drucker, an endocrinologist from the University of Toronto, discovered a hormone that helped pave the way for popular diabetes drugs such as Ozempic.

Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them β€” β€œthey’re studying the spit of lizards?!” β€” remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic.

Hey @washingtonpost.com you say your new Kash Patel story has "not previously been reported."

Wrong, we at @motherjones.com scooped you and had this out earlier today.

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

New Head of the USAID Reportedly Stormed Capitol on Jan. 6 Pete Marocco, who has been reportedly tapped to head the USAID, allegedly participated in the Jan. 6 storming of the Capitol.

In 2023, online sleuths who aided the FBI in cases against hundreds of Jan. 6 rioters identified Pete Marocco and his now-wife as being among the rioters who stormed the Capitol in 2021.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Last 3 weeks of this admin has been basically a β€œclassier” version of J6. Now it’s folks in fancy clothes breaking the operational and conceptual framework of the country. Just because they aren’t literally shitting on the place doesn’t make it less craven. Breaking is easy. Leading takes work.

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.

Trump's Inaugural Approval Rating Is Historically Low Again Trump's initial job approval rating is similar to what it was at the start of his first term, reaffirming his position as the lowest-rated new president since 1953.

There was a reason that Trump acted like he had never heard of Project25. People hated it.

Now that he is implementing Project25, it's worse.

Trump’s β€˜Flood the Zone’ Strategy Leaves Opponents Gasping in Outrage A deliberate effort by the president and his team to roll out an unceasing flow of initiatives has knocked his rivals off balance in the first days of the new administration.

"Flood the zone" is ultimately unsustainable for Trump. Don't chase every outrage. Focus on the big stuff, and keep messaging he's hurting the economy, and American families. They want you screaming about the "Gulf of America" while they cut off SNAP for poor kids.

The story of this first week is corruption. Billionaires seated on the inaugural stage in front of the cabinet, crypto pump and dump, and the illegal firing of IGs. The media is acting like this is too chaotic and bewildering to interpret, but they are just afraid of sounding shrill. It’s corrupt.
