Tonight a federal judge just permanently blocked Trump from unleashing the National Guard on Portland protesters.
Thankfully, the courts are still holding the line against the Orange 🍊 Felon’s authoritarian fantasies.

Exactly. The longer this goes on the more empowered he feels. Is the entire GOP really ready to turn our democracy over to a tyrant. They're sure acting that way.
It's way beyond time to crush Trump's imperial dreams. The whole cabal needs to be reined in.

They're using that as a blanket excuse for a lot these letters, which is patently absurd. They're trying to get around rules requiring a valid reason for termination.

cc: @Gavin Newsome It’s time to build a CDC & NIH in California with the folks who were fired from the feds. In fact, I think each blue state governor needs to scoop up these scientists, healthcare workers and laboratory workers asap. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social

Hours after this story published, a White House spokesperson said in a statement that DOGE did not share classified information ― even as NRO’s classified information was still accessible on DOGE’s website.

We have bird flu jumping species and measels outbreaks in Texas and New Jersey. These people don't care. They're bound and determined to break the government no matter the cost.And yes, people will die.

there’s a measles outbreak on the western side of the george washington bridge, in the most densely populated county in america www.rlsmedia.com/article/nj-h...
Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.
CDC source:
“We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff.
They are calling this ‘Phase 1’.”
Mesmerizing and magnificent. Thanks for sharing that.

Because all government spending is wasteful except when it's in their district. Funny how that works.
This is ballgame on the First Amendment unless there is immediate action by news media, Congress, the courts & the public to condemn & prohibt this www.cnn.com/2025/02/14/m...

Our POTUS & crew. Yes, this is real. There are middle schoolers with more maturity than these morons. They're too dumb to be embarrassed.

Bill the cat! I love that 😂😂😂 Had to say hi. 👋🏻😊🐾
Exactly! We fought a revolution over this concept. The executive does not hold the power of the purse, period.
What I find most astounding is how Trump's henchmen continue to insist he has this power. It's a blatant lie, contrary to the entire constitutional structure of our government.
I really want to see this called out as false loudly and repeatedly every time it comes up. It's not even up for debate.
