I've noted the CDC account pretty much sticks to the kind of fact-based informational approach that would be expected on an "official" account and on their website, had Trump not muzzled them. I've not yet seen any real "gossip" or "lashing out", which is genuinely what I would expect at this juncture (prior to any new obnoxious CDC Director pick coming on and the inevitable attempt to dismantle the agency)...

But the WH rogue accounts are just using info that's already out there--Twitter users have been doing this nonsense for years.

But I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for now. We like in a post factual world so who knows.

I unfollowed them shortly thereafter...

I'm not on twitter so I could neither follow them or unfollow them.

AltRockyNPS It seems as if many "alt" and "rogue" accounts are changing names and now being run by fans, non-employees, and journalists. Any thoughts?


AltYellowstoneNatPar Not ours. If anything it may b said we are a place holder should the time come when/if the official page is forced to submit


Alt-FAA staying for now also. Can't deny the desire to hand off to someone that knows the issues without their way of life on the line

AltRockyNPS We're real. Unofficial and never on work time, but real.

Rogue Dept of ED Due to Hatch Act, ownership has been given 2 ppl who aren't employees of the fed gov. Fed employees are still involved BTS

Homestead Nat'l Mon. some are being threatened. Many are now fakes. Trust none of them. There's always a out to get you.


Nasty Women of NPS ^This. Please be cautious.


AltDryTortugas If citizens want to represent science and prioritize parks, while we would prefer they not use names, support is appreciated

TopoHobo Doesn't matter who runs them, what matters is the people have expressed their love for our Parks, our Rangers, Science & Freedom of Speech


Rogue NASA ?Jan 26 If (when?) the time comes that NASA has been instructed to cease tweeting/sharing info about science and climate change, we will inform you.

We're not going lie. We fangirled a little about this tweet. Okay, fine. A lot.

George Takei @RogueNASA Are we all ready to resist? Battlestations!


Quizquest I wish they were all real, but frankly anything is more trustworthy than an official account will be soon.

A lot of good people are very afraid of losing their jobs. And for them, keeping food on the table trumps running a Twitter account.

Rogue NASA Retweeted The Associated Press
Buckle up, folks. This is only the start.

AP BREAKING: Trump administration mandating EPA scientific studies, data undergo review by political staff before public release.

AltMtRainier We thought we had altitude sickness when we read this.
"Peer" review by Bannon, Conway, and Ivanka's husband. Horrifying.
I hope the "political staff" all have PHDs in environmental science, then
They have the best ones. Trump University, no doubt.

Remember when US wasn't in chaos, science wasn't outlawed, Mexico wasn't an enemy & Putin wasn't an ally? When was that? Oh yeah, last week.

If they choose to make facts controversial, the purveyors of facts must step into the controversy #ScienceMarch #resist
