I'm convinced that all of us over 35 are too scared of losing our personal comfort to do anything. Most people don't know what's happening. Family wont believe me when I deliver proof of what I see with my own eyes. We need youtube gamers and influencers to use their platforms to reach young people.

@asharangappa.bsky.social well, the news is not publishing anything that would make anyone even blink. Most people I talk to have no idea anything worrisome is happening

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: Our beloved Canada is under threat.

The threat comes from the president of the US—a convicted felon and known predator. But the threat is also being driven by the hate algorithms of oligarchs like Elon Musk….

At the EPA, employees hired within the past year have been notified that “the agency reserves the right to terminate you immediately,” without justification. Reports suggest that demonstrating loyalty to the current administration’s agenda may improve the chances of retaining employment.

Elon sent out another email tonight to federal employees, urging us to resign by February 6. The memo was similar to the one received on Tuesday. As with the previous message, this latest communication fails to address concerns about pensions.

I told someone this today. Maybe you need to hear it, too.
I’m glad you’re here. You showed up today, and in this climate that’s an accomplishment. Do the best you can today and if that’s not the same as your best from three weeks ago, that’s completely understandable.

Trump sows chaos in federal workforce then says “resign within a week and I’ll give you 7 months severance.” Don’t fall for it!  Trump told innumerable contractors he’d pay—then stiffed them. He has no authority to promise severance pay. Wait him out!

Trump offers all federal workers a buyout with 7 months' pay in effort to shrink size of government
