DOGE arrived at NOAA this morning. There was no notice. Joe Neguse is on his way, and Attorney General Phil Weisner will be arriving soon. If there is any way you can attend the Peaceful Protest, please turn out ASAP.

When do we do it again? “Overall, nonviolent campaigns were twice as likely to succeed as violent campaigns: they led to political change 53% of the time compared to 26% for the violent protests.”
We're looking for 10M - to reach the 3.5% tipping point, at which there will be positive changes!

The '3.5% rule': How a small minority can change the world
Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.

“Highest level of fuckup imaginable”! #Pete2028
From an operational security perspective, this is the highest level of fuckup imaginable. These people cannot keep America safe.
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

To recap, Trump:
-Forced out the FAA chief at Musk's insistence
-Imposed a hiring freeze that reportedly included air traffic controllers
-Fired the TSA head and gutted a key aviation safety committee
-Blamed the DCA crash on DEI
This is disastrous leadership.

90 million people didn’t vote. 31.4% of the eligible voting population voted for what will likely be the end of democracy. 30.6% of them voted for Harris/Walz. 2% voted for others. And 36% DIDN’T BOTHER! This wasn’t a mandate or cultural tipping point. This was apathy.

Happened to me and a few friends. It’s going to be an exhausting 4-12 years!

When I opened FB today-which I tried not to-the first thing I saw was DT and I immediately clicked on the options. It said I was seeing it because I followed that page, which I have never done. Did anyone else see that? I’m wondering if they made everyone on the platform follow that page?
