Republicans HAVE TO PAY A MASSIVE PRICE FOR ALL THE BULLSHIT THEY HAVE PULLED IN THE PAST 9 YEARS (in particular). ENOUGH!!! VOTE THEM ALL OUT.

There is no real federal government anymore, and what there is openly breaching the constitution. States have a duty to protect their citizens from funding the government via the IRS. @govpritzker.illinois.gov @governor.ca.gov @governorferguson.bsky.social
This administration is about the cruelty and killing. Congress is a cult and so are the the Supreme Cult. I once thought about the government getting coup'ed by fascists or communists but I thought the checks and balances were there or continuity of government actions. Thinking bad, ah reckon.
This is all part of Project 2025. If you want to know how this ends up, look at Hungary...
We are so screwed!
Totally true. Totally disgusting...and frightening.
This is a little vague, why not come right out and say Palentir now has all your data! Everything. Thanks to Elon Musk and Doge.
Normal is dead
And it cost me my fucking job. And my credit score dropped 100 points because I had to refinance my debts in order to pay the bills.
THERE GOES OUR SOCIAL SECURITY OVERSIGHT AND MORE FASCIST MOVES FOR TREACHEROUS TRAITOR TRUMP
We need a national strike. Shut down the economy. Block highway transit. Make a peaceful scene by halting everything.
It'd be awesome but I think people will be afraid of being fired and I'm sure many would be.
Trump's Cabinet was selected for obedience to a single purpose - the destruction of Democratic Institutions. Leaders who pursue the Truth, value Scientific Reason, or follow the Law are useless to Trump.
The astonishing thing is - cabinet level leadership thinks these people can be easily replaced and don’t believe the toxicity they’ve created in these departments dissuades people from even applying for Government jobs.
Republican Party = Power above all (except Profit). The Social Security 'cloud' debacle will cost billions to fix; does anyone believe Donald will allow that money to be spent? After all, it doesn't put anything into HIS pocket!! (Of course we SHOULD #BillElon. But I bet he gets away clean.)
Well they are smart to do so. If we ever get out of this mess there’s going be a a shit ton of yes men motherfuckers going to prison. As long as Merrick Garland isn’t made AG again.
It’s disgusting- from gutting consumer protections, environmental protections, health research, foreign aid, stripping power from independent agencies, ending birthright citizenship, rollback of insulin pricing,cuts to education grants and loans,cuts to small business grants- just to name a few!
Isn't the hollowing out of the apparatus of government a long-held Heritage/Bannon ambition? "Burn it all down and we will control what rises from the ashes"
At first i thought massive walkouts would leave us blind in critical agencies. Now I know that a massive walkout will neuter his ability to implement his insane policies. We are already flying blind.
The rational people with enough common sense to figure it out realize how fucked up this is.
Their Eugenics plan is in full throttle mode, to cull the sick, disadvantaged and elderly.
Wealthy does not equal strength. Living while poor is my super power.
Did nazi this coming
Intentionally: “We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected,” OMB Director Russell Vought had said. “When they wake up in the morning. We want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains.” “We want to put them in trauma,” Vought added.
The bulk of Americans can't be bothered to pay attention to a single fucking thing outside of their daily life. This is why I laugh in the face of anyone who thinks we're headed for civil war. We are the laziest, dumbest, most uninformed people on the planet and we appear to like it that way.
The pandemic laid this all bare in a way nothing before ever has. Trump made a shitshow mess of the pandemic & tanked the economy for 3 years. Biden spent his entire presidency cleaning it up & people blamed him for it because they can't handle a thought deeper than "price bad, leader's fault".
They own what comes next. No ifs ands or buts about it.
This is what Americans voted for. Republicans put it all in writing a year before the election so everyone would know exactly what they were going to do.
JFC! Social fucking Security! Having problems with them as it is just because I worked the Railroad! The SSA payment center can’t get their heads out of their asses! Stopping federal taxes coming out and sending that extra money to the RRB is just tooooooo fucking hard!
Trump is not working for the United States. He's working to destroy every aspect of the government, and Republicans are cheering him on. They're all agents, traitors, or just plain stupid.
And Republican members of Congress, who don't care about anything but their jobs, don't care about this, either.
Some people realize it. Other people are just barbecuing on Labor Day weekend like nothing is going on.
This is outrageous and I thought DOGE was illegal as hell. This is scary shit folks.
This is all part of Putin’s ongoing war on America. As Putin's henchman, Trump is sabotaging the entire U.S. government. Russian-backed agents of chaos are running Social Security, CDC, CIA, NSA, DoD, etc. Musk, Thiel, etc. are Putin's useful idiots.
Thiel is not a useful idiot. He is a fully cognizant collaborator.
Although Musk and Thiel may be working with Putin, I haven't seen any concrete evidence of that -- unlike the situation with Trump. Musk and Thiel are pursuing their own agendas, but from Putin's standpoint they don't realize they are helping Russia. Hence "useful idiots" from a KGB/SVR viewpoint.
I'm pretty sure Thiel knows (and Putin knows he knows) he is helping Russia but as long as his purposes are served for the time being he doesn't care. Musk, deep in vainglorious delusion, thinks he is superior to any nation state.
💯 That pretty much sums it up.
"useful idiot" (Полезный идиот) is a term of art used by Russian intelligence. (Do a translation of this: ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9F%...)
I'm aware. Trump is definitely a useful idiot. My point is that Thiel is no kind of idiot.
I'm with ya. Different takes on the same awful person.

What is this administration going to do in the next 3 years-we are truly fucked
You’d think we would all be in the streets protesting this stuff, but no, we wait. I think most people think it will not keep being awful. That common sense will kick in. Or a hero. But they don’t feel it yet. Because it is going to get worse and worse. Midterm elections will not salvage this.
I've been messaging my senators & representative begging them to lead us to rally in the streets. The are Blue. I want them all to loud, like,Newsom.Stop being quiet about fascism.I Want them on the Capitol Steps & bringing us along. I'm one of those old (not 90) white hippies Miller complains about
It will if we vote in candidates who will impeach and remove him!
Find a protest - any protest this weekend. It starts with us. I’ve done 26 so far this year and will be out tomorrow. Check Indivisible. Tesla Takedown. 50501. 🇺🇸💪🏼🇺🇸💪🏼🇺🇸💪🏼🇺🇸💪🏼
Thank you for all you do
Maybe it doesn’t affect you, but for us, this is life! I swear to God, I was just a student and my focus was only on studying, but my life got completely turned upside down! Check my last post on my page and you’ll understand— even Molly trusts us.
"government" seems like a misnomer since they aren't doing anything to actually govern for the people.
That is the most tragically sad letter of resignation I've ever seen.That a US government can do this to those who've served them & their country with honour,is an abhorrent crime.One for which America will suffer for decades to come.Trump & his cronies are doing irreparable harm,to you America!
It’s underscored by the lack people (even unqualified ones) that are willing to step into any of these positions. That’s why people like Marco Rubio are balancing many plates.
He can not verify that our data is being used legally or as federal regulations require. He said he is not going to prison for this 💩.
Within a month when Trump keeps proclaiming that we are the “hottest” country in the world it will be because all of our stolen “hot” personal information.
People resigning gives the present admin the chance to easily put in all of their people. CRAZY!
I understand why they're resigning, but a part of me wishes that they weren't. We need sane people to remain in the bureaucracy.
He says he is resigning because not to do so would require him to commit felonies.
I appreciate the explanations, everyone. Thank you.
Trump doesn't have employees or public servants. He has scapegoats that catch the cases he should be indicted for. I'd get the hell out of there too.
Yeah. When the administration is this corrupt it essentially means that you get thrown under the bus whenever it’s convenient. In this letter he plainly stated he could not do his job legally anymore
The difference between a functioning dictatorship and a collapsing house of cards is often whether the professionals will support the regime or not. Working for a lawless regime is not tenable by professional, lawful professionals. If they leave en masse, things fall apart.
Or they are replaced by totally incompetent but totally faithful to the regime personnel
And when things fall apart that's when the pitchforks and torches come out for those in power
Not always. Chinua Achebe wrote a few good books on how bad it can go.
Excuse my wonky syntax, it's been a long century today
Right. You can have sycophants or bureaucrats, but you can’t really have both.
Correct. If you look at regimes like Nazi Germany or the Confederacy, they fell apart in a few years/few decades because they were run mostly by incompetent ideologues. USSR and Communist China (have) lasted longer because they had/have compliant bureaucracies. But they are unstable.
The Confederacy fell because the US Army tore its way through the South and made it impossible for it to wage war any more. It involved an awful lot of killing. Blaming it on “incompetence” is really dumbing down what really happened.
The "incompetence" also refers to Jefferson Davis thinking he could sustain market economy without the North.
The Union naval blockade was just as important as Generals Sherman and Grant. It all worked together. Confederacy thought the Union would just roll over.
Lee was also incompetent in the long run. His strategy failed. He first thought he could win in just a few battles, then he invaded Pennsylvania. Nope... Lots of incompetence to go around.
Absolutely true. But we can’t ignore that Lee was only a colonel; he was hoping to be promoted to general if the Confederates won. www.wearethemighty.com/mighty-histo...
The compliant bureaucracies still didn't save USSR from Chernobyl or Communist China from Great Leap Forward. But they do tend to swap out their dictators every few decades to keep the charade going.
We also don’t really have a sense of national identity. At best we are a grouping of nation states. I’ll say I’m Appalachian and people from Maryland are SUPER proud of their flag; MAGA was able to claim the flag because everyone else was embarrassed by it/didn’t care
Everyone else? Seriously? I fly flags on Veterans Day and Memorial Day to honor those who served and those who died in that service to our country. Don’t ever make that claim again. Absolutely wrong. #IAmAmerica
I mean, honestly “everyone” was hyperbole. But, somehow, MAGAts and Christofascists co opted the American flag. In many parts of the country, if you see an American flag in front of a house or on a bumper sticker with no context, it’s reasonable to expect that person is a bigot. It’s sad, but true
I don’t know how old you are, but my partner is a veteran, and you won’t catch them wearing a flag. At work we stopped thanking vets for their service, because they no longer responded in a positive way. My friends were sent to guard oil fields, and they know that.
Exactly, and I don’t see the US having anything like the USSR. For one thing, we’re too diverse. He can employ only Christofascists, but what percentage of the population is that, really? We’ve already seen affluent YT people push back. No one intelligent is going to go along because ‘Murica
I don't think this is historically accurate, the Nazis mostly failed because Adolf was nuts and made a few big mistakes. Does he remind us of someone?!
The Nazis were high on meth, mostly inbred/dumb. Their initial war gains only worked because they took enough meth to fight nonstop for days without sleeping and they had decent (methed up) pilots. But they had no navy and the drugs started cooking their brains too much.
Look up the history of the Nazi Germany Navy. I'll wait.
The Nazis also killed off/drove out their intellectuals and minorities. There weren't enough halfway intelligent people left to function as a sustainable society. They sunk too much of their resources into poorly planned campaigns and made too many enemies.
There was that, but also Nazis were zealots. And they were high out of their minds. This also sounds like the current regime
Yes, indeed. Hopefully the leaders end the same way, but not the country.
The current regime are Nazis for the most part, plus some Soviets mixed in. They too seem coked and methed up. History points in a specific direction with that personnel mix.
Oh, that's the real danger - when you get those who are both.
True, but DJT and cabinet won’t operate by sane, thus forbidding them from such practice. We have to do what they are doing. WeThePeople need to flood their zone with decent, protest and litigation. Shine the light, spread the word 🇺🇸
Too stressful for them.. I had an abusive boss, I get it..
It doesn’t work that way anymore unfortunately. During his first administration, maybe.
It's way past the point where people on the inside can hold the line effectively, unless they're low-level enough to throw sand in the gears without Project 2025 noticing.
When your professional integrity is on the line & you know you cannot condone actions that will harm millions….you leave. & you should. The guard rails have failed.
Trump and his minions have already shown they wil take legal action - including felony indictment - against anyone not loyal to dear leader. Actions that are designed to punish and, extremely, bankrupt them physically and mentally. And, as we’re seeing, they will be forced out anyway.
Here’s the problem - HE could be held accountable for the stuff THEY are doing. I get what you’re saying but we expect these people to potentially have their lives ruined for…?
Ok, so what can be done about it besides agreeing, 'liking' and scrolling for more outrage? What effective action steps?
Are less safe.
As long as they fuck with the libs, they can fuck with me all they want. That way we’re all fucked. Yippee!
What will it take for Americans to be angry enough to storm the Capital + remove these monsters They're stealing EVERYTHING from us + you do nothing They stole our SS numbers + vital info + are distributing them publicly! And we sit here + pay ILLEGAL TARIFFS/TAXES by the billions + do nothing!
There’s one a**hole who absolutely should resign, if he had the faintest idea what honor is…oh, wait…
which sadly, might help them if we do not resist
F’ing terrifying. Someone turn my nightmare around
Oh yay! I lost ya when I x’d X and moved here to BS & some sanity. Good to see ya Angry.
The thing that worries me about all these people resigning is they will just put someone else in that won’t fight back and they’ll be difficult to remove next administration
No they won't be hard to remove. They will be given a choice to resign or be charged with treason. Some will only get the latter choice. We need to be keeping track of all the people that need to be 'disappeared' because it will be quite the list.
📌
Given enough time, Trump and his minions will completely trash the entire Social Security system. Trump will bring us back to 1930. Spoiler Alert: America was not that great in 1930, you couldn't even get a drink.

I hate that these fucking spineless cowards are resigning instead of actively fighting back. This shit's only gonna get worse unless people start actually retaliating to the bullshit that our government keeps doing
HIPPA doesn't apply to DOGE?????
@papst-ny.bsky.social
Is this validated? I’m triangulating and see no other sources.

So many of us shake our heads and say we would never have imagined the crazy things happening every day, but HERE WE ARE!
A better tactic than quitting would be to stay and keep the ship from sinking.
It was too late, the data was already scraped. And he was expected to keep quiet and violate the regulations he was hired to monitor.
Data our taxes paid for chucked in the dumpster.
Of course it is! Why do we not fight back?? Why do we not protect others more? Do we stand up together??
I’m not prone to conspiracy theories but i said back in April that this admin only makes/guts the security services like they are if they want to enable a multi city terrorist attack just before midterms I really hope I’m wrong
That second sentence is devastating. It is a sad commentary on this administration, and a horrible harbinger of what's to come in the next 3 1/2 years.
There will be nothing but riff-raff in the government soon, and then it will be completely dysfunctional to the point that not even the stupid can't keep it together. Then they can't protect him, and it's over.
Sadly…yup.
We are under attack from the inside. There are no other words for it. We are under attack. A hostile take over from a possible Russian asset (most likely) and it's fascist and racist henchmen. A coup is happening or trying to happen right before our eyes.
If what you said is true...and I have no reason to dispute it....it means that the CIA, NSA, DOD, DOJ, FBI AND SECRET SERVICE are all complicit. It IS the way I see it but it's so mind blowing I have a hard time accepting it as reality. We are being hammered by our own government.
They need to stop and stay in place! I know it's tough, but we have to hold strong and not allow these sycophants into core positions.
Fuck them They should
Don't we need these people with principles to stay put? When they resign aren't they just handing more unobstructed power and control over to the fascists?
The point is they can't do their jobs ethically or legally..they're forced to comply w/criminal actions, participate in mass murder. We live in a dictatorship &every policy ends in disease, disabilty &death. Get it thru your head! They said, at great sacrifice, they won't be part of it. Integrity.
Is this being covered by the Vichy Media? If what he asserting is true, it is possible that we may need to completely abandon the SSN system and start over. Further, all of our personal information could be out on the dark web, essentially making most citizens susceptible to identity theft.
Yep, I think that if you ever oust this regime, every single person in the US will need to be issued with a new SSN. The "good news" is that it will be a fantastic opportunity to begin with a modern purpose built system... Sigh.
So frightening and yet, it has been done!! They (bad actors) have all of our data 📊-
It's time for the people we pay to do their job ,get off their asses, and fight back like Newsome and Pritzker. Get the fuck out there. Quit being scared little boys and girls and fight like mother fuckers for the United States. We can't wait any longer. Now!!!!!
Yep
I spent an hour talking with the top aide of one of my senators today.
Russ Vought is partying on this news
This is really bad.
My problem with the resignations is that those are the people that should be protecting us. The collective us. The country, our laws, our constitution, our people, our data, our programs, our wealth, our health, we need them on post protecting.
Oh I know but what can I do? No one wants to work for this fucking stupid administration. But here we are, we need more solid plans.
👆🏼
Gotta wonder if the TATE brothers and EPSTEIN knew each other. Trump helped the Tate brothers out of their sex trafficking at one point, gotta wonder if they are all connected.
Worm brain is destroying our healthcare
The damage done is decades worth of work ruined in under a year 🤦🏻♀️
And yet, here we are. Under normal circumstances, Congress would call an emergency session and start impeaching the fuckhead from office for treason. What is happening is outrageous, and while we are angry and screaming about it everywhere, it just seems like business as usual in Washington
You're right. I had a weird thought last night. Wouldn't it be interesting if the GOP is giving tRump everything he wants to destroy his hold over their party. Just getting rid of someone makes them a martyr. But letting them destroy themselves, turns their supporters against them. I can only hope.
Wait until Monday when they tell us that there is no economic data for the month of August.
I'm so sick of having to spend years shoveling elephant shit after each republican administration, and this one will take decades to clean up if we don't get buried under it first.
Decades is generous. I would say close to a century
We won’t make it that long. Climate change.
Fair call
America's best chance of recovering after this is going to be jailing the whole goddamn republican party.
True
I said it on Day 1 after DOGE walked into the first alphabet soup agency... "The leaders/execs of all the other agencies need to have a 'data destruction' system in place in the event they are ousted". I would rather rebuild the CDC or SSA from the ground up later, than give it away tomorrow.
He didnt win every single swing state in the same election that he barely “won” the popular vote Are we supposed to believe that ALL 88 counties that “flipped” allegiance went to a single party for the first time since 1934? Hell no He lost The data proves it Pass it on♻️ bsky.app/profile/andr...
I don't think Mebane is correct.
Did you read his paper or are you just making assumptions based off of your opinion? websites.umich.edu/~wmebane/PA2...
I read one of the recent papers. It wasn't written for clarity. It needed to clearly define what would be coded as fraud, and didn't. It wouldn't have made it 5 minutes into a job market seminar where I went to school. BTW I live in PA and I'm an elected local official; fraud here nearly impossible.
Ballots vary considerably from township to township over very small geographies. Ballot blanks are numerically controlled. We use paper ballots. We match signatures in voter rolls at the polling place. Fraud at scale would be incredibly difficult.
Mebane's approach strikes me as a more sophisticated version of Navarro's claim that, essentially, an election is an aggregation of flips of a coin with a bias, so elections look rigged to him because he expects the Trump 2020 election to have used the Trump 2016 coin. But votes aren't coin flips.
To be fair, I think the other papers presume familiarity with the paper below. I really want to see him backtest on US 1980 and US 1992. websites.umich.edu/~wmebane/mea...
Keep Dr. Mebane safe!
Trump certainly did not win Michigan. Only the fruitcakes with 50 yard signs voted for Trump. Everywhere in rural Michigan was dominated by Kamala Harris + Kindness Matters signs. Senator Elissa Slotkin and Kamala Harris got same numbers of votes, yet Slotkin won, but not Harris?
It is possible if stupid democrats stayed home on their asses giving the House, Senate and the White House to @GOP. You have to wonder how the supposedly smart college kids will stay home hoping for what?
Trump is a cheater, don’t forget that
I have always wondered how the dems won the election so big the first time then lost the next time,then Elons comments sure Made me believe in vote machine Manipulation
This is likely true but doesn’t help us now.
Only if we do nothing about it. I think that once Trump dies (soon) the info will come out very publicly. Biden and other democratic leaders were definitely briefed on this immediately by our own intelligence agencies. They chose not to release it for reasons good or bad eg civil war, threats, etc
I think with trumps death comes a release of information from our public and foreign allied entities that shed light on his connections to Russia (the blackmail), the election hack (& those involved). Elections are decertified under pressure because it causes massive protests and SCOTUS goes along
There’s a decent chance that an active SCOTUS judge is forced out for various criminal behavior in the interim. Next few weeks/months will be wild
bsky.app/profile/andr...
Then what is going be done about it????
And I bet Musk’s teenage dirt bags were involved.
Voter suppression, an old but effective tactic. Voter registrations were purged. Mail in votes were disqualified. Polling places were closed. I don't believe it was some computer hack. Disqualify and throw out enough votes in key Democratic prescints and Trump wins the State.
Rigging and hacking can both be done….🤷🏻♀️
The number of “bullet ballots” in those counties is the smoking gun.
Hopefully
Are you following @electiontruthalliance.org? They’re finding machines were messed with: bsky.app/profile/elec...
I've heard their theories but haven't seen any evidence.
They have a website: data.electiontruthalliance.org
I believe the election was rigged. I really do. But it's all theory until adjudicated in court. Greg Palast has proposed a theory of voter suppression that's very convincing. Compelling, because it's the easiest to do. I believe they'll rig the next election, if they lt us vote at all.
ETA is pushing for audits and investigations based on their findings. They have an Audit Advocacy Toolkit if you, or people you know, can help: electiontruthalliance.org/audit-advoca...
Here’s university of Michigan’s Dr. Mebane’s statistical analysis that corroborates the findings of election truth alliance - vote count manipulation in Pennsylvania. Dr. Mebane wrote a guide about election forensics for the US government so he knows his stuff websites.umich.edu/~wmebane/PA2...
Don’t forget bomb threats to Blue polling places, traced to Russia.
This !
I agree whole heartedly. The fact is there's nothing we can do at this point. Fucking spineless democrats put us in this position. We had the majority and COULD have prevented all of this.
I know it sounds overly optimistic considering the limp behavior of the democratic leadership but I think that there was a coordinated strategic decision to wait for the right time to drop announce what they know about the elections. It seems insane that they would let Trump take power yes but,
It was likely a strategic decision that was guided by the fear of civil war, domestic terrorism, foreign terrorism ( Russia), and specific threats to some of their families. Keep in mind that trump, some of his cabinet, and congress people are being blackmailed and threatened by Russia
Biden and his intelligence agencies had to have been preparing to for what they knew was coming once they decided not to challenge the election results of which they may not have had enough evidence to prosecute in the court of law and public opinion in the short time before the inauguration
All of this is to say that they’ve been waiting for Trump to go before announcing this all. Once the cult leader is dead the cult and Putin lose power over the country. A Russian asset stealing an American election is the biggest bombshell in American history. Can’t hide it for much longer.
The fact that number of counties that "flipped" in favor of fascism is "88" tells you that it was 100% manipulated by a Hitler loving shit poster, trolling the entire world with a meme. Thats a Nazi meme, "88" is symbolism for Heil Hitler. 88 counties, and Musk paid for it, of course
Every Dem statewide in NC won by a similar margin. There were 2 outliers, one on each side: Stein for governor, because he ran against the worst candidate in decades, and Trump, which no one can explain how his margin came out nearly half a mill votes different than the rest of the ballot.
Of course he cheated. That's who he is and that's what he does. His mental health controls him.
Exactly. Thanks to W’s failure, we had a recession that Obama got us out of.
I don't see any real way out of this. Too many slow motion events have already begun that nobody seems to want to do anything about. Do you see any establishment dems talking about Palantir and Peter Thiel and the plot they're enacting in tandem with the heritage foundation to dismantle us?
Any hope for humanity surviving this century is a long shot. But it requires the US voting for Democrats consistently for the next 20 years and dismantling the Republican party. I know it sounds boring and trite and simple. But the average voter needs simple. Survival = voting Democrat
Just imagine how different the world would be if Al Gore had been president. No 9/11. Action on climate change. Balanced budgets with very low debt. Etc. Or if Clinton had won in 16. So much wasted potential. We can clean this up and have a future. But it involves voting enmasse.
I was always told good moves at a snails pace because it has to. We need to give more than 4/8 years to set us on a course to thrive as a species. And I know Dems aren't perfect. But look at the alternative.
Dems not doing anything
Do not understand the apathy of some … Kamala warned / told all , liberals warned … the orange dicktator told us exactly his plan
Absolutely. But also because the work situation is intolerable, . People just can't stand working there.
I can't blame them for resigning but the longer some normies stay in, the more intel we can get for the trials we will be holding in a few years. The resignations may be a disaster but they look like success in the Project 2025 playbook.
Storm the White House
It all appears to be deliberate and part of a plan to dismantle our democracy.
Failure and collapse by the criminal regime Reps enable Trump's actions & abuses
Krasnov has been Putin’s greatest tool.
I keep thinking something has to give. Like when are we all going to mass protest or general strike or SOMETHING…I don’t know what the answer is but we are going to need to do something here pretty quick.
People are too poor in too many ways, scared of losing jobs, housing. They won't strike.
Just as Vlad has planned!
No one wants to work for these assholes. A national strike day all over America would be awesome!
The Russians are coming.
When Angry posts like this it is bad. Really bad. The chaos will be extreme. In all of that, we need to keep the pressure up on Epstein.
This is not normal, but clearly, necessary to combat the disease (Trump) that is a cancer on our democracy.
Earlier in the year someone posted that the AMA began posting stuff on YouTube. Let's hope these resignees begin podcasts, blogs, etc where we can get recommendations from them there.
Keep your foot on the outrage, Angry!
The Cascading Effect is real. If you've worked in healthcare and have seen a patient begin Cascading, it's unstoppable at a certain point. That's what this feels like in America right now. The clock is ticking, cascading failures of systems are going to grow exponentially. Can it be stopped? How?
I hope people do too. That's all that's keeping me sane and moving on a daily basis. It feels like I've been watching a train rolling towards me, my family, my friends, my community, at a distance, getting closer and closer. All our feet are glued to the tracks. And we can't stop the train.
Please please stop saying “this isn’t normal” - that phrase is namby Pamby at best and is, at worst, embraced by MAGA ~ they don’t want normal! Instead please affirmatively call it what it is - in this case, it is a PURGE of civil servants in order to strengthen the thug regime
📌
They don’t realize it. Because the media doesn’t do its job. Honestly, only those on here know about what’s happening. Local news doesn’t cover it
So, SSA will continue to "function" on autopilot for a while until someone finds the kill switch. Then all hell will break loose! I get my money by direct deposit. I haven't seen any problem ...yet.🤞🏼
Call your senators and representatives, they are finally coming back to work! This is so disturbing, we are in real trouble.
Elect a kkklown, Die by the kkklown. #RIPamerica
It’s not just the clown. It’s the whole rotten apparatus of Oligarch corruption & inhumanity behind everything. The fall of the clown-king must be accompanied by a cataclysm devouring the whole stinking mess with a fresh start afterwards that gets us back to first & best principles of our founding.
When is enough enough? What is the next active step to stopping the willful destruction of our democracy?
Jesus. Five bell alarm. The Trump Regime, agents and co-conspirators in the GOP are breaking laws, violating the constitution and committing treason. They are attacking our democratic republic from within. Why? Personal profit & power. Every person who rejects tyranny needs to be very loud now.
People from USA, rejoy! Now neonazis have access to your bank account!!!
This is happening all over the government. Doge did the same thing at CMS and other HHS OPDIVS.
Fuck doge…the fact these MAGA fools think they are being transparent is bull shit. Yeah..they are being transparent AFTER they delete the info they don’t like. Never in a million years did I think as a veteran we’d be living in a country that is the laughingstock to the rest of the world!
Doge was just a front for data theft. I spent the last 24 plus years in government trying to keep the bad guys from getting in. After January 20, we just opened the doors for them and let them plug into our systems.
He's about to find out that "the Left" will not make it bloodless.
Musk is a demon

What an asshole!
Has anyone seen Trump lately
#CriminalCabinet Don0ld is a wannabe dictator (emphasis on DICK) #EpsteinFiles
You know the SSA hired Big Balls within days after he "retired" from Doge, right? That shriveled little testicle is no doubt head of some the very projects this man is referring to.
Thank you, Charles Borges, for being a faithful public servant and guardian of our most valuable possession - our data.
I just froze my 3 accounts with the credit bureau’s. I highly recommend every American to freeze their accounts.
Already have done this, but I’m still freaked out.
Mine have been frozen since the Equifax hack years ago and it definitely gives me peace of mind.
Yup. They stayed as long as they could to try to hold it together i appreciate them all. ❤️
I do.
Russia has our data.
Dangerous. Not less safe. Dangerous.
Who the f wants to work for these asshole?
As a data governance professional, what I have seen so far has been shocking. This letter, however, is beyond what I have feared.
Plus he'll just replace appointed positions with unqualified lackies, then the hired positions will take months to fill (if they do) with the hiring process...or they'll just pile the work on those there...which means service issues at all these institutions
This is normal for a Self-Coup, which is what the entire goal of "Project 2025" is.
When an institution is collapsing, what is the correct response? Does our constitution provide an answer?
Our way of living was not perfect, it needed some tweaking. But, We the People ignored our responsibility of voting for the right person for the right reasons. Ignored voting for City officials and educators, County, State, and the Federal. WE THE PEOPLE had the power and we still do. Vote.
And now IRS woke up and realized that too many people left and the 2026 filing season is in serious trouble. They're asking people to come back. For what? To be laid off/ fired again after the filing season is over?
They’re going to eventually run out of magats and people who wish to return to their abuser over and over again
Those who stay remain fucked, because nobody believes them anyway, no matter what
Wake the eff up, people!!
We are F'ed.
Very disturbing to say the least
Who's protecting us if these guys are bailing out? Are they quitters?
The most powerful part of a Voters anatomy is not the hand holding the pen in the ballot box. The feet. Feet are the most powerful Voting with your feet is irrefutable... Be it Poor restaurant service Abusive marriage Dick*head managers Corrupt politicians.. ....Just walk out the door..
Our govt is actively trying to kill us!!
And it is gettin more fucked up by the minute!
I sure do. I am so happy Gavin finally got that across to more people. Few understand it is their own NEVER CONFRONTED primate defaults that let assholes like Trump take over again and again. We need to accept their is evil amongst us, and that we love that too: duckduckgo.com?t=ffab&q=How...
Add to that, the Trump replacements won't make things better. They'll make things worse, much, much worse
At the rate we're going, deaths from preventable and treatable diseases will be higher than those from covid. This is what republicans, third party voters, and those who sat home on their asses asked for. I fucking hope they're happy with the destruction of our country and the loss of life.
Unfortunately many do not care. They think it can’t happen to them. Even some when they lose a loved one simply do not care as I witnessed firsthand.
"Gawd will protect us."
I’d aslo be interested to see how parents vote in red states after their kids school has a mass shooting ..
In a just world, this would only hurt those MAGA-voting freaks that got us into this. But alas, it is not.
I realize. I don’t know what to do about it, though.
These idiots are on a different planet When everyone knows except for fox addicts! He’s had a lifetime of drug use He says a worm ate part of his brain. To be honest I think it ate almost all the brain. Flopped a whales head on top of his car. Released a bear cub in park! This is his Resume! Expert?
📌
This is how you make people desperate and dangerous. This regime is destroying everything without a thought of consequences. There's going to be a lot of people with nothing to lose rising up against these psychopaths. It's inevitable
The message has to be spread far and wide…and often to reach as many people as possible.
I'm very concerned.
Are you sarcastically quoting Susan Collins? Concern is a mild word in such a horrifying time. I am outraged! We must make this stop. MONDAY IS ANOTHER NATIONAL DAY OF PROTEST. PLEASE, EVERYONE GET OUT THERE ON THE STREETS. THIS MUST STOP!!
Margot44, I don't remember which post I made that you are commenting on. We agree that all the craziness happening must stop.
The 🍊💩 "destructionist in thief" is intentionally dismantling the government. It's easy with a cowardly Dead GOP-PEDOCONS who's willing to do just that! With clear instructions from project 2025 created by heritage foundation, SCROTUS & far Right-White POS Christian Nation-ism, Thiel, & oligarchs. 🤬
At least they’re putting a lot of homeless folks and immigrants in detention centers 🙄🤬
It’s the world, rightwing technocrats and oligarchs have always wanted. The only way to stop them may involve many, many, many questionable acts. Be prepared, be ready.
You get what you pay for and America bought what the conman was selling
What about Tulsi outing CIA operatives?
Likewise
On the bright side. Nothing is forever. Good thing we aren't POWERLESS How do we mitigate this shit storm?
Sad as Trump is going to sell our personal info to the highest bidder; and give it free to Russia/Elon/Doge
All because “…ewww, I could never see a woman of color in the White House…plus she worked for genocide Joe…” well, how’s going for you now, huh? 🤬
That is the only way out of this. Walk out and shut it down. I know people need a government. The truth is we do not have a government. We have a criminal enterprise.
No adults left?
Libertarians suck balls! Always have! Always will!
The most illuminating comment from Dr Demetre D. who heads up immunology and respiratory disease, was that in 7 mos. littlebobby has never held a briefing w a single researcher or other medical expert at CDC. That says it all. The “fuck ur feelings” crowd operates solely on feelings.
Trump doesn’t care what RFK jr does. It gives him someone to blame and takes all those nasty health questions out of his interviews. That gives him more time to congratulate himself over something Joe Biden actually accomplished.
You’re absolutely correct. Other than the bizarre skin color jr. came into the 3 hr. “Let’s blow the dick-tator posing as a Cabinet meeting” with, T barely notices him. T will never fire someone bc Dems want him fired. If the appointee’s mom once sent $5 to a local Dem, that’s a fireable offense.
those bastards are fcking up everything
Putin is smiling ear to ear as Krasnov destroys the Republic.
Can we resign into a new country of our own? There are two alternate realities in America. I vote for the free one.
The trump administration was recruited to destroy the US government. There really is no other explanation that makes sense. They are the enemies the founders warned us of.
Think of Bannon wanting to wreck everything to have chaos. He succeeded!
Transunion www.transunion.com/credit-freez... Experian www.experian.com/help/credit-... Equifax www.equifax.com/personal/cre... When companies have a data breach they are responsible for providing free credit monitoring for those who info was breached, when Trump steals your data it’s fine
Classic authoritarian need to control their lies. When they are failing at controlling a pandemic, the regime can’t have science and experts contradicting the lies. This happens in every authoritarian takeover. Same with the economy. Same with education. The dictator controls the narrative. Always.
They are trashing our country for the Russians and the oligarchs and the worthless chief Justice Roberts gave him a pass go card to screw us over faster and easier.
They don't want to pay out social security anymore & are actively, openly trying to ☠️ as many Americans as possible. Most of what they are doing is illegal and no 1 is stopping them. #TRE45ON #TR4I7OR #LockThemAllUp #J6TERRORISTS #OrangeDemiurge #RealityOfTheRulers #HypostasisOfTheArchons #4B #3E
Why would trump make deliberate moves to weaken, damage America? Oh, right.
Is he dead yet?
He's a rarity in or current administration. An honest man.

I froze all my credit yesterday.
So unless we bend over and take it with a smile while responding "thank you sir, may I have another" then I guess we're pretty much on our own.
So….. how many decades of “free credit reporting services” will we get as a result of this breach of info? 🤬
Thinking TikTok is the least of our info worries. At least if they take my info I get to see cat videos in exchange 🤔
I gave up on those letters. They come more frequently than ads for life insurance. Buy a safe and horde your valuables.
They are taking over, we are at the point in time where the future generations will ask why didn't anybody do anything to stop it?
Every single thing that's unfolding is exactly what the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 ultra right-wing extremist authoritarian manifesto laid-out/planned and what they've been implementing on hyper drive from behind the curtain since the inauguration. This is FASCISM ENGULFING OUR NATION.
YEP. There's more than one interview of this ultra right-wing extremist fascist authoritarian. My question has always been why has this BLATANT evil undermining of our fragile democracy been allowed to fester and spread to where we are in this dark hour?
In the name of Jesus
Get out onto the streets, protest day and night, it's our only hope!!
A re-coup is in order!
A veritable buffet of atrocities. Plus Epstein
Make a copy of every whistleblower email. www.wired.com/story/charle...

Yup! @chuckborges5.bsky.social is an American hero and I’ve been posting about him all day!!!! There’s a thank you post up for him on my page!!!!! Go say thank you and follow him!!!!!
The problem is that everything is absolutely fucked up. It’s hard to prioritize one’s reactions and levels of upset.
Friday night 🤔what could possibly happen? Long weekend ahead , everyone be safe and aware out there 🙏🙏
🤮
It started with Musk and once we win back congress he needs to be held accountable for his action’s !!!!!!!!!!!
And my MAGA family won’t bat an eye. I don’t want to even try to predict what Trump will do next.
He’s destroying this country in 11 months, what we had for 249 years. He’s going to make the English people laugh at us…
