So the founder of @bsky.app owns Block Inc. Block Inc is the payment processor behind @givesendgo.bsky.social. @givesendgo.bsky.social is violating the terms of service of Block Inc by allowing a white woman to raise money for calling a child a racial slur, because she fears for her life.

I reported on how former staffers of the January 6th Committee are afraid of retribution from the Trump administration — If Trump is unable to prosecute members of Congress or other prominent former officials, it seems highly likely that lower level staffers and civil servants will be targeted.
