Please RP!! An extremely important message! Jack Smith is in real danger!
I can't understate just how courageous Jack Smith is and has been. The letter his legal team wrote yesterday is amazing work. But it also underscores the TRUE FUCKING PERIL that truth tellers are facing!
Courage in real time ♥️
I honestly pray this doesn't go the Navalny route & I don't pray.🙏🏼

if you've spent time inside, you know that the price of a single short phone call to your family is incredibly high. this is just bleak and horrible.
NEW: The FCC under Biden passed rules to make phone calls from prison easier, to help keep people connected to their communities.

Trump's FCC has now blocked that change.

Phillip Smith, a man incarcerated in North Carolina, reports for Bolts on what this means for people behind bars:
Priced Out of Phone Calls Home - Bolts
The FCC blocked Biden-era limits on the exorbitant rates and fees charged by prison telecom companies, leaving incarcerated people and their families to fight for state-level reforms.

There’s no secret good reason in a judicial opinion somewhere that you’re not smart enough to understand but neatly explains why all of this is good and necessary - we’re ruled by narrow-minded monsters and this is all just fucked and stupid and evil

Here’s some advice for those outside our coalition, as the administration is actively leading a witch hunt for resistance members. If you’re a government employee, avoid using government devices to coordinate. Do not use standard messaging apps on Android or Apple devices.

Project 2025 told us Trump would try to gut the federal workforce & we'd lose the dedicated civil servants who keep our govt running.

That's exactly what we're seeing now.

If he gets his way, millions will experience delays in services like tax refunds, passport renewals, FAFSA processing & more.

Holy moly. I'm trying to write an academic paper, and nearly every application I'm using is not only offering Generative AI as an option for writing, but *pushing it* -- pervading the design to the point where a simple misclick would make my content AI-generated. Here's why that's a problem. 🧵

I'm going to tell you a quick story about a messed up situation in Mississippi.

It's about state officials who have voided direct democracy thru an absurd excuse, & now are refuse to yield it back to people.

And, therefore, about why you should care—right now—about something happening next week. ⬇️
