Firing 76,000+ employees will absolutely gut the VA. Musk-Trump want veterans to die, en masse. There's no other way to frame it.

It makes sense that Justice Barrett would side with USAID as many of the charities are Catholic that hand their funds frozen.
She’s from a devoutly Catholic family & her father was even a deacon.
If more people start siding with their Faith over government corruption, anything is possible. 🙏

I’m angry. I didn’t know what to do, so I sent the letter below to all of my Congressional representatives.

The massive disaster being brought on this nation by Trump

DO SOMETHING. Trump and his MAGA fans are attacking the fabric of our nation. Mass firing of civil service employees,

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻

This is a good question. In 2017 big law firms spoke out and pledged to take cases pro bono. This time, it's ominously quiet. I fear Big Law, like big business is hedging to avoid being on Trump's enemies list. Shameful.
Seious question, Marc:
Are there enough lawyers who will take up the cases against Trump & his administration to halt or at least tie up these insane EO's and other pending laws to mitigate the damage being done?

Lawsuits filed by North Dakota under Gov. Burgum reveal an aggressively pro-fossil fuel agenda.

“Doug Burgum’s blatant conflicts with the oil industry cast doubt on his ability to fairly manage our public lands,” one government ethics watchdog said.

Every inspector general who Trump unlawfully fired must remain in their positions until the courts order them to leave.

Trump is both appointing unqualified flunkies and trying to eliminate any form of accountability.

Senate Republicans can stop him by rejecting Kash Patel.

In just 7 days, FOTUS issued 77 racist, anti-immigrant policies.

The 77th tonight: visa sanctions, revocations, and a travel ban on some Colombian nationals; retaliation for Colombia refusing to accept deported citizens. This cruelty harms diplomacy and lives. tinyurl.com/FelonColombia
Trump imposes tariffs, sanctions on Colombia after it refuses deportation flights
Trump said the Colombia's refusal jeopardized U.S. national security. He imposed tariffs on incoming goods, sanctions on government officials, enhanced border inspections of Colombian nationals, and banking and financial sanctions.

Objectively funny they're slapping a 50% tariff on the country where we get 57% of our imported roses from 2 weeks before Valentine's Day.

Sadly, AP is wrong. While it is true that most legacy media outlets are seeing a steep drop off, that is not true for many independent pro-democracy outlets.

How is that a publication like Rolling Stone gets it right when so many other news orgs are failing at real journalism & keeping it real—and so damn obvious about it?
