When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.
Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

If you are a federal worker being offered a buyout, I would advise against taking it.
Of course, this is a personal decision for everyone and it’s your choice.
But these offers are a rush job. The legality is questionable and this admin does not keep to its word.
They aren’t firing for a reason.

In 1944 the U.S. government wrote a sabotage guide for people in fascist occupied countries. It includes a section on how managers and office workers can slow down operations.

The email address for federal workers to inform on their colleagues is DEIAtruth@opm.gov.

Donald Trump will be indoors for the inauguration with his billionaire pals. His core supporters will be left outside in the cold.

And Trump expects everyone to believe HE’S the one who’s been unfairly targeted—MAGA actually believes him.
