if you know a lot of stuff i think it is your moral duty to be kind and excited when people learn stuff for the first time. the world is full of stuff we don't know about, don't be mean

I'm going to go through the "HHS passback" in this 🧵. This is what the White House sent back to HHS, based on HHS's guidance. It's Trump's budget plan, though can still be changed. To start off, they call to eliminate Head Start, which helps fund free pre-k and learning programs for poor families.

It’s impossible to be this ignorant

LA is up for a fight

This is how we win. One step at a time. Each fighter giving courage to the next.

Ethics and illegality aside, a great way to stop this is for Democrats to vote, go to the talk, and hopefully win $1 million dollars.

These cuts will devastate these life-saving programs.

We always knew Trump was lying to someone about tariffs and post-election we’d find out who. The execs couldn’t fathom it was them!

The Democrat who just flipped a very Trumpy seat in Pennsylvania’s Senate made opposition to Elon Musk front and center in his campaign. (lancasteronline.com/news/politic...)

Probably not relevant to anything, but most of Germany's concentration camps were not in Germany

Take a minute to read this whole deep-dive on Brad Schimel's no-holds-barred loyalty to Donald Trump. This link is paywall-free.

I hope people enjoy their tax cuts.

Francis Collins led the mapping of the human genome, and chose to do big scientific to benefit the public. He is a a former NIH Director. He just resigned his position in government. His resignation letter: www.nytimes.com/2025/03/01/u...

Office of Justice Programs has taken down its clearinghouse of effective anti-crime programs: crimesolutions.ojp.gov

Help us build out our rapidly growing list of townhalls where GOPs got rocked last week over people who hate the Elon and DOGE crime spree talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/ye-ol...

If you live in LA go to Union Station at 9AM to protest this criminal administration

fantasizing about a world where an opposition congress responds to trump’s attempts to usurp legislative power by defunding the entire white house staff

Move fast and break things!

People who genuinely believe in colorblind government policy should be more upset that the Trump administration is using that language to do clear racism

All hands on deck red alert, please share broadly: Senate GOP budget resolution calls to cut Ag & Finance. This means they’re coming after SNAP & Medicaid. They are trying to take away nutrition & health care. The reconciliation bill is filibuster proof & so can be passed w/ their slim majority.
