This is the text of the email just sent to hundreds of international students telling them that their visas have been revoked due to activism or social media posts.

Hundreds of international students have just received an email telling them their visas have been revoked. The ‘justification’ is campus activism or social media posts. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/us/hun...

The biggest reason government officials aren't giving any specifics about the criteria by which these arrests and deportations are selected, is that the criteria is "pro-Israel think-tanks and advocacy organizations created lists of troublesome individuals and gave them to us."

Ignoring a court order on the grounds that “ah-ah-ah, the law doesn’t apply once you get to international waters!!” is absolutely sanctionable. 8th grade-ass lawyering. Completely unserious.

Inside the White House, officials discussed whether to order the planes to turn around. On advice from a team of administration lawyers, the administration pressed ahead.
• "There was a discussion about how far the judge's ruling can go under the circumstances and over international waters and, on advice of counsel, we proceeded with deporting these thugs," the senior official said.
• "They were already outside of US airspace. We believe the order is not applicable," a second senior administration official told Axios.

The easiest political ad ever is that the richest man in the world is killing the poorest people in the world just so he can get richer. If you can't inspire a movement with that, get the fuck out of the game.

PROTESTING THREAD. I cut my teeth protesting vs. Jean Marie Le Pen in France. The French are *master* protesters. We can learn a lot from them. 1st thing to know: there is no such thing as "too late." We can protest before, during, and *after* a coup. Eastern Europe did it under tyranny. So can we.

New: I got a copy of the OPM federal jobs buyout email. It was sent out directly to federal employees, and it appears the new system-wide email is working. "If you wish to resign: Type the word 'Resign' into the body of this reply email. Hit 'Send'."

During the first week of his administration, President Trump issued a number of directives concerning the federal workforce. Among those directives, the President required that employees return to in-person work, restored accountability for employees who have policy-making authority, restored accountability for senior career executives, and reformed the federal hiring process to focus on merit. As a result of the above orders, the reform of the federal workforce will be significant.
The reformed federal workforce will be built around four pillars:
1) Return to Office: The substantial majority of federal employees who have been working remotely since Covid will be required to return to their physical offices five days a week. Going forward, we also expect our physical offices to undergo meaningful consolidation and divestitures, potentially resulting in physical office relocations for a number of federal workers.
2) Performance culture: The federal workforce should be comprised of the best America has to offer. We will insist on excellence at every level - our performance standards will be updated to reward and promote those that exceed expectations and address in a fair and open way those who do not meet the high standards which the taxpayers of this country have a right to demand.
3) More streamlined and flexible workforce: While a few agencies and even branches of the military are likely to see increases in the size of their workforce, the majority of federal agencies are likely to be downsized through restructurings, realignments, and reductions in force. These actions are likely to include the use of furloughs and the reclassification to at-will status for a substantial number of federal employees.

Upon review of the below deferred resignation letter, if you wish to resign:
1) Select "Reply" to this email. You must reply from your government account. A reply from an account other than your government account will not be accepted.
2) Type the word "Resign" into the body of this reply email. Hit "Send".
THE LAST DAY TO ACCEPT THE DEFERRED RESIGNATION PROGRAM IS FEBRUARY 6, 2025.
Deferred resignation is available to all full-time federal employees except for military personnel of the armed forces, employees of the U.S. Postal Service, those in positions related to immigration enforcement and national security, and those in any other positions specifically excluded by your employing agency.
