We the Builders, a group of current and former federal employees, is trying to spread information and support feds under Trump 2.0.
The We the Builders website
The We the Builders website — crafted with the same web design system used by many federal government websites — declares, “We built the tools millions of Americans use every single day to access government services … If they really wanted to know how to use technology to build a more efficient country, they would ask us. But they haven’t. They are destroyers. We are the builders.”
The site hosts a series of blogs and stories, as well as a timeline built by the group detailing DOGE’s work and, as the website reads, “what we would’ve done.”
Since the start of Trump 2.0, the administration has pursued aggressive cuts to the federal workforce. Technology employees already working at what was USDS when it became DOGE are among those that have been laid off. The government’s internal tech consultancy, 18F, was also shuttered in March.

50501 Be Safe Message Washington DC
FROM 50501 COMMS
byu/kittykat-brat in50501Some content from the comments:
Emphasis Peaceful Messaging
De-escalation, Mutual Care, Disciplined Non-violence
Watch for tunneling or kettling where large protests are funneled into increasingly smaller spaces
Stay in the periphery of a crowd, keeping an eye out for exits away from the crowd
you are attending rallies, not protests
Call attention to people acting oddly or using inflammatory words or behavior, get others to help. Give organizers a chance to de-escalate
If you are detained, say nothing. Do not talk to anyone else. Ask for a lawyer. Keep silent until you have access to a lawyer, and only a lawyer.
