Well, this is a happy surprise.
We are working on launching an ALT DOGE website. It will soon feature a team page listing all of Elon’s staffers, our own wall of receipts (tracking the money he’s taking from America), and a section to help Americans keep tabs on the false claims on Doge’s website—which now exceed 52%.

Trump administration is planning to use polygraphs to assess federal employee loyalty. There are ways to manipulate polygraph results, and we will provide guidance to coalition members. Polygraph results are not admissible in court due to their potential for false positives and negatives.

Here’s the deal - the administration wants to cut government funding to all things research and education. This same researcher would likely be having federal funding withheld that would have funded his university research.

This is the intentional is the Dunning-Kruger of America.

Buckle up.
Old friend just laid off by USDA, 1 mos short of his probationary period as senior researcher. Brilliant person who left a tenured faculty position several yrs ago to join USDA. Bright early-career researchers also being laid off. USDA is terminating a generation of highly-qualified scientists.

European friends: Do not accept lectures on democracy & freedom of speech from an Administration that denies the 2020 election results and is now suing & intimidating news outlets whose reporting they don’t like.

Stand tall against right-wing extremism.

I can think of at least eight federal laws that have been broken by Musk and his goons over the last few days, and at least two provisions of the U.S. Constitution.

They must be stopped.

If these staffers are working within our government, the same rules apply: employee information is considered public record, as well as information releasable under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).

Members of Elon Musk’s secretive team, tasked with reviewing federal agencies for potential cuts, are refusing to reveal their full names to civil servants. Musk’s representatives declined to provide their surnames and refused to answer any questions.

Our coalition has grown rapidly, now standing strong with over 92,000 federal employees. We are united by our oath and our commitment to hold the line. Every day, more of us are being targeted simply for speaking the truth to America.

This isn’t going to end well for anyone. Best case scenario, the middle and working class families in the western hemisphere lose. Worst case scenario, we have much bigger global problems. None of this is good for the working class and all of this needs to be stopped.

Thank you for following while we try to get through this dark period of history. To friends who’ve followed me, thank you. To those who don’t know me, I have degrees in politics and psychology, spent the last 2 decades teaching BJJ and working in the trades. Class solidarity is everything.

Welcome to my Bluesky. I don’t love the Tweet style format, but I’ll be moving here more and more to avoid Meta and X.

Expect posts about the outdoors, some photography, BJJ/self defense, but predominantly politics.
