    1. They have to be appointed by congress. Two people showed up and said they were appointed by Donald trump. That doesn’t work. And I applaud the workers at the Library of Congress for obeying the law.

      This agency does not report to the President. It’s right there in the name, „Library of Congress.“

      This is actually where Americans should take a stand. Block the entrance before Trump’s gestapo walks in and forces the staff out.

      What could be more symbolic and anti fascist regime than 1000’s of true patriotic Americans taking a stand in front of a building where knowledge is stored and adored. Knowledge is the biggest weapon against these fascists and also what they fear the most.

      If I was an organizer (or American for that matter) then I would be there with my fellow Americans.

    4. I think the revolution against Trump needs a place to focus on and a barricaded Library of Congress would be a great Fort to all go to and defend. Got a Bastille Day feel this country can get their spirit around and push back at the authoritarian in office and his gang of unqualified loyalist minions set up in high office.

      These imbeciles don’t even know HOW the Library of Congress works. What it is there for. We are living in the movie “Idiocracy”.

      Good for them! I have been so frustrated reading about how these agencies have been so easily taken over by people with the help of agency security guards.

      Really hope the staff don’t end up getting arrested for doing their jobs.

      Good for them. This needs to be the norm. Keep the doge kiddies out too!

    9. As the days grew darker and hope faded into the shadows, it was the librarians who stood firm against facism and showed us all the way.

    10. Been saying security, regular staff, IT, and whoever is in charge of the electricity and plumbing could be throwing little wrenches in the administration’s plans.

      Literally lose keys, lose/damage wires, mess upUSB ports, flood sinks and toilets, use up all the toner and copy paper, smash and lose light bulbs. As well as various entry and call cops just to stir it up.

      People in too many places still think what’s happening can be whethered for a few months before they get their life back together and continue pushing like before.

      Michael Moore knows about those librarians: “I really didn’t realize the librarians were, you know, such a dangerous group. They are subversive. You think they’re just sitting there at the desk, all quiet and everything. They’re like plotting the revolution, man.”

      Fortunately magas can’t read above a third grade level so they got scared and ran from the words and Dewey decimal himself

      I can’t show you all this… but there was a Reddit ad embedded in the comments for me that said “Don’t wait until it’s too late for pest prevention”.

      And, well, it’s kind of fitting. Those librarians were excellent pest preventers.

      >“No honey, that’s not how it works“

    15. And then they came for the librarians, and woe was upon them and they were smited.

      All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing. I’m so frustrated by all of the government agencies that have just given in to the unlawful actions of this regime. Like the broad acess workers continue to grant to DOGE and then pout about… They must be told no and turned away if they can’t even follow process. Every time folks just give in because they’re afraid of imagined consequences, we’re dismantling democracy for them. Same goes for government employees who resigned because they don’t want to work for this government. Stay and resist! 

      And for everyone else who isn’t out there doing the bare minimum, let the actions of the brave and resolute librarians inspire you! Stand up for what’s right! If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything.

      Why won’t a small group of sensible repubs band together in Congress to stop this madness?

    18. nilesintheshangri-la on

      Other federal workers watching this who had the same thing happen to them: Wait, you can do that?

      I hope the library has it’s own armed security because that’s what’s gonna be neccessary for these vermin to take the hint
