#JimmyCarter was a very wise man.
I am blessed to have the opportunity to have had a long conversation with him before he left us.
In a sense, I'm happy that he doesn't have to see this happening to our democracy

Yay!! A federal judge in California sided with a coalition of unions, temporarily barring the Office of Personnel Management from ordering federal agencies to terminate probationary workers, stating that the firings were ‘illegal, should be stopped, and rescinded.’

@altnps.bsky.social Did everyone in DOI have their performance review closed yesterday or just my team? It can't be a good sign.

US government, which self-describes itself as "deeply in debt" to justify staffing cuts across agencies, is also supporting the House budget blueprint, which would increase the deficit by more than $2.8 trillion thanks to a massive tax cut for the nation's wealthiest. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

UPDATE: The charges against her have been dropped “in the interest of justice” (she bit one of the brownshirts that assaulted her) and the private security firm has lost their license to operate. I hope she sues them into oblivion.
PLEASE: Watch what happened in Coeur d'Alene Idaho today. This is fascism. Unmarked cops. 1A violations. RESIST.

The Trump Admin is refusing to release the money in order to protect the profits of fossil fuel billionaires. Unacceptable. Release the funds NOW.

So much for being well informed. State department employees, including diplomatic offices around the world, are only allowed to subscribe to right-wing media. Orange guy has got to control to narrative to keep up his constant lying. 🤡

Interesting and chilling that Trump’s post "He who saves his country, violates no law," was used by far right Norwegian murderer Anders Breivik ( who in 2011 killed 77 mostly kids & wounded 319 )
Breivik cited that purported Napoleon quote, to justify his attacks.
