We are in such, such profound danger. They are doing the Reichstag fire to the most crucial and foundational payments layer of the Federal Government.

Hi all, We’re still here at OPM.
We have a situation where we MIGHT, and I do mean, MIGHT have four of Elon’s people blocked from the building.
Can we get press or a member of Congress down here? We’ve blocked them for two hours and they keep coming back and trying to go in.

look I’m no messaging expert but it seems like the American people might be interested to know that Donald Trump just gave our social security numbers to a teen called BigBalls
Contrary to some info I've seen, 19-yr-old Doge staffer "BigBalls" Edward Coristine did not delete his X account, it's just renamed and is private.
Wired reported that govt tech workers had to defend their work to the Neuralink intern in an Office Space-esque scene.

We need to figure out who's on these DOGE teams. Start taking pictures and making them public. Document what they're doing. Create a paper trail that forces them to slow down. Anything to throw some sand in the gears and make them nervous about future jail time
Lutheran Social Services is one of the largest employers in South Dakota, operating senior living facilities across the state. Republicans are shutting it down
Perhaps more concerning is Mike Flynn, known foreign asset, having access to this data?

I think Americans, blessed with relatively stable government for a long time, assume there is someone, some adult, who will step in and make things right before the President does anything REALLY bad.
There’s not.

Warren is the ranking member on the Senate Banking Committee. Wyden is the same on the Senate Finance Committee. They need to go to the Treasury building with crews from CNN and NBC and demand to be let in. As soon as they're not, hold a press conference right there and explain what DOGE is doing.

A constitutional crisis requires friction to make it legible. That often comes from conflict between the branches of government, but a Republican-controlled Congress and SCOTUS are not interested in challenging Trump’s lawlessness. That why it’s *especially* important for Democrats to act.

An interesting approach to working with sound in amusement parks. I have been a part of quieting coasters for park use, but not trying to develop a soundscape around the mechanical sounds (and screams).
