Alt-Democrats (NOT the Democratic Party)
@altdemocraticparty.bsky.social
We’re Democrats who are tired of crickets from national “leadership” when mobilization is needed. Follow us, we’ll follow back—let’s fight to win together.
All power to the people. We are strongest as a team. Sí, se puede. #landback #blm

Federal employees, unions are advising not to respond to the “what did you do last week” email.
Everyone else—not saying you should necessarily email HR@opm.gov with your accomplishments to put up on the fridge, but if you felt so inclined, consider a temporary email like tempmail.altmails.com

Don’t worry, Jill Stein is out there right now making sure this doesn’t happen—what’s that? She’s on twitter posting about a webinar designed to elevate the speakers rather than the immigrant justice groups actually fighting ICE?
What. A. Surprise.

Thank you to the EEOC administrative law judge who sent a reply-all email calling out collaboration. Federal employees swear oaths to the Constitution—not the President. Federal employees serve We, the People.
As @altnps.bsky.social has stated, we support you. Stay brave, stay strong. We love you

Cc: ADMINISTRATIVE JUDGES: +29 others
Good morning, Andrea. Apparently no one in leadership is willing to ring the alarm bells so it falls upon one of us to do it. The tactics you are employing and actions you have taken in lock step with this new administration are illegal and unconstitutional. You are not fit to be our chair much less hold a license to practice law. I will not participate in attempts to target private citizens and colleagues through the recent illegal executive orders. I swore an oath to the Constitution of the United States, and the Commission serves the people of the United States. If you want to continue following the illegal and unethical orders of our president and the unelected leader of "doge" that's on you.
As I said in the email I sent to my colleagues yesterday (which was mysteriously deleted not only from their inboxes, but from my sent box), I know I take a great personal risk in sending out this message. But, at the end of the day, my actions align with what the EEOC was charged with doing under the law. I will not compromise my ethics and my duty to uphold the law. I will not cower to bullying and intimidation.
If upon reflection, you feel like now would be a good time to take a vacation and resign from your position, please 'reply all' to this email and put "I'd Like to Occupy Mars!" in the subject line. We will take this as notification that you are resigning your position as acting chair.
P.S. Happy Black History Month!
Sincerely, [redacted]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5r7oc7zcrniths55h2zoq2qx/bafkreidlbkziqjzlfrzdecxngor36vw35f6f6sr3jld2yicmku7g623poe@jpeg)

“Doesn’t like it” is an understatement. The program ended the white supremacist institution he and his family hold so dear. Begging literally a single journalist to report on how Musk, Thiel, and Sacks might blame the USA for this and how that might provide a motive to destroy the country.

Remind your senators you expect them to vote no because yes votes collaborate with fascism. Tell them if they need additional pointers on how to do their jobs, copy the GOP’s homework on destroying the Affordable Care Act. Tell them to check their email for once because you’re sending them the memo

Did you know you can check to see how your senator voted on cabinet confirmations without waiting for the news report? Look who voted to confirm Bessent to treasury and made it possible for Elon to play God with taxpayer money.
They ought to hear from you.

It’s Friday and you know what that means: it’s the last day of “oh god, what now” before more “oh god, what now,” but on the weekend.
You’re right, that’s not very comforting, but hey, shit is fucked and we are still showing up to try to unfuck it, so let’s take comfort in that, eh?

An earlier quote of @oldenoughtosay.bsky.social’s post (pictured) could be interpreted as judgmental and snarky. That was the result of haste (and enthusiasm) and was unintentional. We deleted it to keep our messaging coherent.
We’re sorry and promise to be more deliberate/thoughtful going forward.

If you want to give more detail, here’s why we’re asking our senators to vote no on RFK Jr for HHS:
He’s an anti-vaxxer whose policies will harm and kill us. His fearmongering in Samoa has already caused kids to die preventable deaths of measles. Check the graphic below for additional points.

We’re sex-positive here at Alt-Dems, so we don’t usually kink-shame.
That said, if you’re subjecting the public to your predilections, we absolutely reserve the right to not only kink-shame, but also ask if you’re okay. No, really, are you, like, seeing anyone for the trauma that made you this way?

We know what this is: a lie.
The truth: Project 2025 seeks to end the Medicaid program. The first step is the “pause” in federal grants funding Medicaid. The portal was offline because the GOP *wanted* it to be.
It’s online again because WE made elected officials listen. WE did this.

We also know the news is overwhelming right now. That’s the Republican Party/Heritage Foundation flooding the zone to paralyze everyone with fear so we will freeze up—as intended. The antidote is action. Pick one thing to focus on today and do it. Here are some ideas to get you started 3/🧵

@schumer.senate.gov says Donald Trump and his administration are dangerous. We agree. So why are Dem leaders talking about bipartisanship with an existential threat? America doesn’t compromise with fascists, lads.
