My neighbor Reza was picked up by ICE and sent to a detention camp in Texas. Green card, been here for 40 years. Super good guy. One of those people who make America great. #freeReza. We won't rest until he comes home.

@glennkirschner.bsky.social Honored our fallen military, disaster responders, civil servants, diplomats, foreign service officers, journalists, and researchers, and the innocents as collateral damage with
Taps Across America in Gaithersburg, MD. Aligns with Team Justice. Because justice matters.

This is fabulous!
I've been protesting, but I decided to do something different. I made an ad. I've given a lot of thought as to how to communicate without confrontation to Republican voters, non-voters, or Trumpers who are beginning to be concerned. I hope you'll watch - it's only 30 seconds. youtu.be/bp6XUjteeV4

A really powerful WWII era "don't be a sucker" piece, that explains how authoritarians have to separate and destroy groups of people so they can take power. I don't usually watch anything this long (22 min) but couldn't stop watching once I started this.
Please watch and rewatch this movie, in the U.S. Archives from the @usarmy.bsky.social #DontBeASucker a reminder of how the Nazis conned their country into becoming the cause of mass murder and all the other horrors that Nazis unleash. The lessons are true for the USA🇺🇸 , in 2025 youtu.be/vGAqYNFQdZ4

@barbmcquade.bsky.social @kimberlyeatkins.bsky.social @joycevance.bsky.social @jillwine-banks.bsky.social I want to scream "Make it stop!" How are these illegal firings happening? What happens when the firings are rescinded and the employees have no place to return to?

Anyone know anything about the types, nature, and amount of federal data being destroyed (against the law) or delisted? Anyone tracking this?

@barbmcquade.bsky.social @joycewhitevance.bsky.social @kimberlyeatkins.bsky.social @jillwine-banks.bsky.social we are all concerned about the impact of halting gov services and gutting the gov. Citizens care. The current administration doesn't care.
