The Explosion of Alternate Federal Agency Sites As A Reaction To Trump

As protests continue around the world today and as both the judiciary and the various federal departments begin to issue directives to upend Trump's travel restrictions there is another very interesting development taking place. Many federal agencies and cabinet departments are setting up "Alt_" sites to allow their people to Tweet and interact with the public in their own alternative venue.

By now I've seen the following:

Rogue POTUS Staff @RoguePOTUSStaff

Alt Dept of State @AltStateDpt

AltTreasury @alt_treasury

alt FBI @altFBI

ALT DOJ @ALT_DOJ

AltHomelandSecurity @AltHomelandSec

AltUSDeptHUD @AltUSDeptHUD

Alt_Labor @alt_labor

AltUSDA @altusda

AltFDA @alt_fda

AltForestService @AltForestServ

Alternative HHS @AltHHS

Alternative NIH @Alt_NIH

Alternative CDC @Alt_CDC

altEPA @altUSEPA

altFEC @alt_fec

Alt_Dept of Interior @Alt_Interior

BTW most of these sites were created today, Saturday 4 February!

I guess they figure if Trump likes Twitter, he'll love this!
