This is absolutely amazing…
As you know, our Sputum-Filled Orange Julius in Chief has been issuing gag orders and otherwise silencing scientific agencies, especially when it comes to climate change.
And so, in response, multiple alternative resistance accounts have sprung up on Twitter, ready to fight for facts.
This short post is basically just a list of all the alternative Twitters I could find. I want to make this post an official database of all the Alt twitter accounts, so please; if you find any I missed, let me know in the comments so I can update the post. Thank you.
And special thanks to Dana Hunter, at En Tequila Es Verdad, part of The Orbit network, for alerting her readers (myself included) to this…
Rogue POTUS Staff*
And the Twitter account that heads and gathers it all… Alt USA
If you find any others in this vain, please let me know. I want to keep this post updated with resistance accounts…
Thank you.
And follow all of them.

*Based on the discussion in the comments, and my own checking of the account, it does seem pretty clear that this account is a fake. If you notice any others on my list, please let me know so I can remove them.
There is thought (and some interesting analysis by a linguist) that at least one of these (I think the POTUS staff one) is possibly of Russian origin; the slang use, abbreviations and some spellings are consistent with non-US, specifically someone used to cyrillic alphabet.
That’s… weird. Why would Russia do that?
To fuel the flames of chaos?
The Kremlin probably figures that if they can’t have a reliable marionette administration in the face of widespread public resentment and resistance, they should go with weakening America by playing both sides against each other. Puppets or paupers, it’s a win-win in Putin’s eyes.
Just a warning (which should be obvious, but is nonetheless worth explicitly stating): There is no way of knowing / verifying which ones are authentic, and which are fake. Paying close attention to the actual content is essential. Of course that is always true!
Yeah I’d heard strong inclination from canny types that RoguePOTUS is a fake. Having seen it myself, it’s a lot of too-on-the-nose, too-expected kind of material.
Might be a very accurate outside assessment of his personality, could be bad guys trying to do a fake they’d eventually out to make chumps look bad, could be someone trying to make trump look bad by telling what they think is the good lie.
Either way, I’d absolutely delete it from the list.

Thanks for the info, everyone. I removed the link to Rogue POTUS Staff and crossed it out. Let me know if any others are fake…
Multiple sources rule too is worth noting here -- check where ever possible with more than source to confirm whether story / fact ‘X’ is really true. Not always possible I know but when it is.
PS. Great list & great to see the resistance & defiance from the experts, scientists and good human beings against the ongoing nightmare of the Trump regime.
While resistance by government workers is good, I suspect the only thing that will get any attention or having any effect is shutting down the entire government until Trump and the entire regime resign. If every government employee walked out simultaneously, the government would stop functioning altogether. It would be impossible to fire and replace everyone in every agency.
