More than two million federal employees have been warned that discussing "the resistance" and Trump's impeachment violates the Hatch Act. Via @nytimes: nytimes.com/2018/11/29/us/…
We called on OSC to rescind the new Hatch Act guidance because it opens the door for civil servants to be unfairly targeted if they are perceived to be disloyal to President Trump: americanoversight.org/new-guidance-f…
Retaliation against career employees who are perceived to be disloyal to @realdonaldtrump has already been an issue in this administration. We've been investigating: americanoversight.org/investigation-…

Tomorrow, House Democrats will begin oversight. We've already been filing FOIA requests and will sue to get the documents if the administration tries to stonewall Congress. See what we've filed so far: americanoversight.org/investigation/…
We filed a FOIA to find out if USDA senior official Rebeckah Adcock violated the terms of her ethics agreement by meeting with those associated with her former employer: americanoversight.org/documents?fwp_…
The EPA suppressed a report from the CDC on the health effects of perfluorinated compounds. We want to know if the chemical industry influenced this decision: americanoversight.org/documents?fwp_…

.@SecretaryZinke is leaving the administration one day before the the new Congress to avoid facing scrutiny. But just because he's leaving doesn't mean we're done investigating: americanoversight.org/our-ryan-zinke…
.@Interior recently classified uranium as a “critical mineral." We submitted a FOIA to find out if the the uranium mining industry influenced this decision — and what impact it could have on national monuments: americanoversight.org/documents?fwp_…
From putting a high school friend with no experience in charge of grants to giving a $300 million contract to restore power in Puerto Rico to a tiny company from his hometown, it's clear Zinke favored personal connection over experience: americanoversight.org/our-ryan-zinke…

Now that the House is investigating, Ben Carson could face real accountability for his son's participation in the Baltimore listening tour, retaliation against an employee who objected to his spending, and Armstrong Williams' role at the agency: motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
Ben Carson allegedly demoted an employee who objected when he tried to spend $31,000 on a dining set. Emails we obtained show she was frequently asked about exceeding the $5,000 limit on renovations: americanoversight.org/investigation/…
See our investigation into Ben Carson's leadership at HUD and his family's involvement at the agency: americanoversight.org/investigation/…

1. This news should be viewed in tandem with Hurricane Florence's arrival, which has already forced more than a million people to evacuate their homes—and which analysts project will cause catastrophic damage.

Environmental deregulation is killing us.
nytimes.com/2018/09/10/cli…
2. We repeat a disastrous dynamic when it comes to extreme weather: We're incredibly attentive to damage as it occurs; news is filled with courageous people who risk everything to keep others safe. Then, we experience collective amnesia until the next storm.'
3. At this point, these aren't "freak" occurrences. Humanity has poisoned our climate for centuries—and decades after we knew it was killing us. And yet, too many continue to pretend that these storms are a mysterious phenomenon, and not a predictable consequence of our sin.

#Breaking "les mouches auraient-elles changé d'âne"...1 mystérieux et généreux Gorge Profonde a fourni au @nytimes des documents non diffusés par le comité judiciaire du Sénat sur le juge Kavanaugh, nominé de #Trump à la Cour Suprême. Et surprise, surprise nytimes.com/2018/09/06/us/…
2) #Breaking Quand il travaillait pour Bush jr comme conseiller juridique en 2003, Kavanaugh ECRIVIT que, pour lui, l'arrêt Roe vs Wade de 1973 légalisant l'#avortement n'est PAS la "loi établie du pays", phrase code des conservateurs pour dire qu'ils le renverseraient...
3) Ces révélations in extremis n'empêcheront certainement pas Kavanaugh d'être confirmé par le Sénat US mais elles font entrevoir désormais sérieusement la possibilité d'1 Cour Suprême renversant les jurisprudences Roe (1973) et Casey (1991) légalisant l'avortement dans les 2 ans

#Trump ajoute la controverse en fin d'1 déjà bien mauvaise soirée pour lui par ce tweet où il utilise 1 dog whistle (message suggéré)clair. Traiter de"dumb" (crétins) le présentateur de CNN Don Lemon et la star du #basket #LeBronJames, tous 2 Afro-Américains"parlera"à sa base. RT
2) En 2017, le General Social Survey de l'université de Chicago établissait que les 2 principaux clichés racistes sur les Afro-Américains- idiots et paresseux- avaient la vie dure chez les républicains. #Trump n'insulte pas #LeBronJames et #Lemon au hasard washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/w…
3) Quant au "#IlikeMike" cryptique de #Trump à la fin de son tweet, il indique sans nul doute la préférence du président pour Michael Jordan, l'ex-star du basket #NBA dont le rang de plus grand joueur de l'histoire est aujourd'hui contesté par #LeBronJames...
