An analysis from the nonpartisan Partnership for Public Service estimated that DOGE's actions could actually COST the govt $135 bln as a result of lost productivity & changes in the status of fed workers. Some have been mistakenly fired, only to be rehired again. 1/2 www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-e...

We were likely years away from making HIV a thing of the past. Humanity triumphing over one of its worst diseases Instead we'll live in a world where people continue getting sick because of a greedy few who didn't want to pay their fair share of taxes

A special poem for #TACOTrump: 🌮

It's pretty nausea-inducing to watch all these financially stable mainly white men with all the privilege applauding about taking necessary, sometimes life-sustaining services away from people in need to give to people who need nothing. What a gross place.

This is absolutely terrible news. With the shifting regulatory climate (i.e., antivax ratfuckery), Moderna has withdrawn their application for their eagerly anticipated COVID-flu combo vaccine. This vaccine offered better protection than getting each shot separately. h/t @merz.bsky.social

There's always a tweet.

The Trump administration cut federal funding for a research project at Cornell University aimed at developing a heart pump designed for babies and children with congenital heart defects bringing the effort to a halt.

. The President of the United States just took a $2 billion bag from a UAE-backed crypto firm. That’s not business it’s a bribe. A sitting president is getting paid by a foreign government. This is treason in plain sight. And y’all quiet? Hell no. .

Trump/MAGA don’t like Black people, poor people, brown people

ICE tried to argue (with no real evidence) that a Venezuelan couple were members of Tren de Aragua and fucked it up so badly that the judge not only released them immediately but ordered that no one in Western Texas be deported under the Alien Enemies Act w/o being given 3 weeks’ notice.

The Trump Administration has reduced funding available for autism research, imperiling key projects—some of which were midway through completion. time.com/7279068/trum...

Small business is really hurting right now- because of the Trump tariffs…

The stock market lost $1.4 trillion in value today. Another day in Trump’s America.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

I feel like we need to keep saying this because it’s so insane: This is a legal U.S. resident who has been detained for over a month now for his political opinions.

Tomorrow I’ll be calling all of my representatives to demand that they call for RFK jr’s immediate resignation.
