Love this quote from @aiww.bsky.social. Esp given AI/creativity propaganda by the bluechecks. “Creativity is the power to reject the past, to change the status quo, and to seek new potential. Simply put, aside from using one’s imagination – perhaps more importantly – creativity is the power to act.”

It blows my mind that Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird casts herself as the savior trying to protect “critical classroom accommodations for kids.” She’s suing to make Section 504 unenforceable in every context.

Brenna Bird hid the ball on major disability case. Now she's lying about it
Laura Belin: Iowa's attorney general and her staff have lied repeatedly about a federal lawsuit that could blow up Section 504 protections.

Do not mess with librarians. They let complete strangers borrow their books. For a living. Even the hardcovers. They are so much stronger than you know.

SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.

FYI.But USAID was created by an Executive Order!"
BUT was later CODIFIED by Congress into law, and its appropriations are passed by Congress and signed into law each year (most recently on Dec. 21).
Eliminating or defunding USAID requires passing a new law cancelling those laws. 1/

Remember we were so worried about TikTok getting our data that we banned it? Then we gave Elon Musk and his cronies access to Social Security and Medicare benefits, tax refunds, federal salaries, and other sensitive information.

Hey #Iowa! Contact your US Senators & Congressman & demand they do their jobs. They represent & serve you, not Trump. They are supposed to provide checks & balances for executive powers.

Trumpee who sells a bible but unwilling to place his hand on a bible to swear to uphold the constitution. That sure shows the depth of his Christianity.
