@MeetJess It's bonkers. My daughter gets iron infusions at the oncology infusion center at the hospital. Once in a blue moon there will be another patient with a mask on. In oncology. Where patients are getting chemo treatments ๐คฏ
Brilliant protest. Yosemite National Park workers hung an upside-down American flag โ traditionally a symbol of distress or a national threat โ thousands of feet off the ground on the side of El Capitan.

Zelensky on Meet The Press: โI will never accept any decision between the United States and Russia about Ukraine. NEVER!โ
How can anybody disagree with this?
In the 21st century, with air travel, every country is next door.
So *everyone* is now next door to America, a country that is demolishing its national vaccination schemes and opening itself to all the horrific consequences.
Congratulations to viruses everywhere on their biggest policy win in decades. Make sure you're fully vaccinated before stepping into a red state, Americans.
A private citizen is invading and shutting down government departments. The courts and Congress are awol.
If this isnโt a constitutional crisis, and oligarchy gone wild, then I donโt know what is.

From an anonymous OPM employee on Reddit. submitted 3 hours ago by Throwaway918284: "I'm a current employee at the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). This is a throwaway account for obvious reasons. Iโm posting this because people need to know whatโs going on at OPM. Iโve been an OPM employee for nearly a decade and a Federal Employee for almost 20 years. Iโve never witnessed anything even remotely close to whatโs happening right now. In short, there's a hostile takeover of the federal civil service.
Let me say this in no uncertain terms โ OPM has been compromised and taken over. The very backbone of American Government, the HR of all HR in the U.S. Government has been taken over by outside politicals. In just five days, they managed to push aside dozens of non-political, career civil servants who were there specifically to prevent the civil service from becoming the President's henchmen.
The current Acting Director, Charles (Chuck) Ezell is a low-level branch chief. He's the friendliest โyes manโ you'll ever meet. He never says no. Itโs clear they pushed aside all the high-level non political civil servants who refused to do Donald Trump's bidding, until they found Chuck.
Under his name, theyโve sent numerous requests to all the agencies to collect information on gov't employees that they see as a threat to their agenda. Instructions say to send these lists to Amanda Scales. But Amanda is not actually an OPM employee, she works for Elon Musk. She wasnโt even properly cleared by OPM Personnel Security.
Our CIO, Melvin Brown, (also a non political career public servant) was pushed aside just one week into his tenure because he refused to setup email lists to send out direct communications to all career civil servants. Such communications are normally left up to each agency.
Instead, an on-prem (on-site) email server was setup. Someone literally walked into our building and plugged in an email server to our network to make it appear that emails were coming from OPM. It's been the one sending those various โtestโ message you've all seen. We think they're building a massive email list of all federal employees to generate mass RIF notices down the road.
The non-political civil servants here at OPM are watching helplessly as our government is being systematically dismantled bit by bit. Even the IGs are being fired to prevent them from investigating the numerous whistleblower complaints we've filed.
Please share this and tell the world that OPM is not the bad guy. We're just as helpless to stop this as the rest of our fellow public servants. Hopefully someone out there can help us, but itโs looking pretty grim."
BREAKING: 15 Native Americans in NM and AZ were stopped by ICE and asked to prove their citizenship.
This isnโt immigration enforcement; itโs blatant racial profiling against the very people who have called this land home for thousands of years.
@peggy_gabour@Emolclause Same. We live in the migratory path of snow geese, & many have been found dead along the beaches. Tested + for bird flu. The geese land all over the farms/fields & there's a huge potential for contaminating the chicken industry here ๐ตโ๐ซ
Donald Trump says it will be a hostile act if Denmark does not give up Greenland which has been part of Denmark for over 800 years.. WHERE IS THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT?? SOMEONE HAS TO STOP THE PSYCOPATH BEFORE HE STARTS WW3.. THIS IS NOT FUCKING NORMAL..
