Encouraging everyone to write, call, and email Secretary of Education Linda McMahon and your congress men and women regarding RIFs that have critical impacts on Indian Education programs. Link to my letter: docs.google.com/document/d/1...
The Office of Indian Education just had 7 of its 9 people cut. This shows what the U.S. shutdown means for Native Nations.
It's not closed offices. It is a halted legal obligation.
The stakes beyond the politics.

Did you know that before the Dept of Ed was created, only 1 of every 5 kids with disabilities received a public education. So when people ask why do we need a Dept of Ed, you can tell them it ensures ALL children have access to education. Learn more on this week's podcast: pod.redwine.blue/OBW
Great to wear to your local protest to confuse facial recognition software. ✊🏽
It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.
Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.
I hope it’s because they are working behind the scenes. Although a revolution must be from the people. We need republicans on our side and they might not come if politicians are getting all the attention not the people.
If you support any of this, you’re honestly just a terrible person. People’s lives are being upended and destroyed. For every 1% increase in unemployment, 40,000 people die—yet some are celebrating.
REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!
Happy to report that APA wrote this letter, gathered a coalition across science, and will now pay for ads for it to be disseminated in Science and Chronicle of Higher Ed to spread the word!! unitedsciencealliance.org
He just repeats what his Dad said, I would put money on it that Elon told Trump to shut his mouth right before the media came in
Don’t forget about NY 😭
You are not powerless, and he is not unstoppable. Look at, and learn from, the funding freeze and how quickly he was forced to surrender.
It’s Gameday (Super Bowl Version) ❗️

Why is Trump the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl?
Because all the presidents before him realized it would be extraordinarily wasteful to spend 15-20 MILLION of our taxpayer dollars to go in person.
Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them — “they’re studying the spit of lizards?!” — remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic.

That’s definitely a deal they have, but if he gets charges for state crimes, he can’t pardon him.
Under fascism, no one is safe.
Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc.
Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations.
Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.
Buckle up everyone this is going to be a LONG thread but if you are a current Fed you are going to want to bookmark it because it’s the roadmap for what’s coming. #SaveUSAID #SaveAmerica 1/
At least he doesn’t have his face, like poor @yilongma.bsky.social
Pretty sure the closest is pound cake with a pound of butter (two cups) in it 😵💫

Public service is not a “lower productivity” endeavor. It is the foundation of our democracy, and its value is incalculable.

Thank you Rep. Kennedy 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Federal public servants keep our country running—caring for veterans, protecting seniors, and keeping us safe.
But they’re under attack by billionaires rigging the system to boost profits. I won't stand by while the ultra-wealthy buck the rule of law to steal our power. youtu.be/kTcvUkkCAS4
