So few followers, it seems developers did not realize Aspire is on Bluesky. Developers make this number up. I'm sure we can reach 1000 followers by the end of the week.

No one is covering the threats to our democracy like the 20-person team at Democracy Docket. No venture capital, no corporate overloads, no compromises. Just pro-democracy news, information and analysis.

Again, this brings me back to the best East Asia brief I ever got. "This region runs on WW2-era grudges, mostly because everyone lives to be 100 and they never forget anything. People will still be alive and rehashing things decades after their US peers have all died of heart disease."
If you know about Korea, you know that people will tell this story for generations.
Given the scale, tech savvy, cultural sway, strategic importance, and national pride of ROK, this might be *the* most lastingly damaging, idiotic move team MAGA has made.
Blessed by SecState Marco.

The number of times I bite my tongue after reading some stupid cliche "cybersecurity wisdom" from someone who's clearly never actually worked in a blue team role for an organization, or at least forgotten how that world works, is an imperceptible number.

NO CR without guarantees. Put the brakes on. Impeach Trump
Text SIGN PNOTXS to 50409 — This round of funding is an opportunity to rein in Trump and Musk's illegal and destructive activities. Please DO THAT.
Please vote NO on any funding agreement that does not:
- protect Medicare, Medicaid, and honor previously agreed appropriations
- make the removal of Musk a condition of funding
Please, DO NOT fund the government for more than 6-8 weeks: make Trump come back soon so you can demand compliance.
NO CR without guarantees.
NO CR that gives the GOP a blank check to snatch things from children, veterans, the retired and disabled in order to feather the nests of the oligarchs with more tax cuts.
Shut the government down and let the GOP own this if you have to.
If they can't govern and won't listen to their constituents and to previous promises, let them own the result.
Right now a shut down would be less damaging than the daily chain saw massacre inflicted by Musk and the illegal fake agency of digital terrorists called DOGE.
Please use the CR discussions to bring your colleagues to their senses.
Trump is violating the constitution and the laws daily.
He has caused nothing but chaos, misery, illness and even deaths
since starting his regime of tyranny and illegal EOs.
He was impeached for less than what he is doing now.
Remember:
Trump has NO MANDATE: we did NOT vote for the destruction of the agencies that ensure public health, safe food, safe air travel, advance warnings of dangerous weather events, environmental safety, earthquake monitoring.
We DID NOT want Veterans services to be axed. We did NOT vote to have the president take the side of our foe Putin.
We DID NOT vote to have the oath that you took to uphold and defend the constitution suspended.
Every day that you cling to decorum and act as if this is normal you are knowingly complicit in the degradation of American democracy into tyranny and dictatorship.
It doesn't matter whether you have the votes yet. Impeachment is the remedy for high crimes and misdemeanours.
