So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.

Emil Bove *tries* to back off his illegal and improvident direction to the FBI but even if it is to be believed (that may be a big “if”) he still is saying he wd take action in violation of civil service rules (and the firings that have already occurred violate those rules).

Just doing everything we knew they would do.
You may want a stiff drink while you read it.
So many people’s lives are about to be a living hell just for doing their jobs. All because America refused to jail a dangerous traitor.

Ida Wells was born enslaved but refused to live in fear. She wielded the power of the press to expose America’s greatest terror—lynching. When the truth made her a target, she didn’t back down. She co-founded the NAACP, fought for Black women’s voting rights, and left a legacy of resistance!

I know all of us who understand what is happening are experiencing mental health challenges because of that.
The only message of comfort I can offer to this community of readers is this: you are correct.
What you think is happening is really happening, and is just as concerning as you think it is.

Listen friends - gather your hope where you can. People showed up in all 50 states on a moments notice. Voicemail boxes of senators are filling up. Lawsuits are being filed.
Look at all the good people.
And do not forget to take care of yourselves. Seriously. This is a long haul.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
