The Trump administration laid off half of its Epidemic Intelligence Service, otherwise known as the “Disease Detectives.” The lay off affected 1,260 staff, reported NBC News’s Lewis Kamb.

Under "Sick-Ass/Worms in the Brain Kennedy," this nation will regress 100 years!... Deaths will be more than an every day occurrence due to Unqualified Fools, like Kennedy, running our Department of Health Services! Unbelievable! 😡
These mass firings have eroded whatever credibility #trump had entering office. I mean, all of these thousands of civil servants can’t be corrupt, can they? #trump and his minions are afraid of any pushback, so will replace experienced people with loyal newbies, putting us all at risk!
Obama had a pandemic department as one was likely to hit in the near future. Trump inherrited it during transfer of power but his choice was to close it, just sayin’ ..
Sadly and not proud of saying this but sometimes the best cure is for everything to go to shit. Only then and MAYBE then people will realize their election mistake. Ask the families and TRUE friends of the people who lost their federal jobs and see how they feel about it now…
Sad but it doesn’t matter really. They will always deflect and cast blame on someone else. If it goes to total shit and they can’t fix it, then their lies will catch up to them one way or another. We might not have a country left by then anyway.
I don’t think they will attempt to fix it when everything goes to shit. You’re more optimistic than I am. I don’t think the lies will catch up to them—not even when it’s too late.
And who’s going to get the blame for the potential influx in deaths … Biden or the person who is really screwing things / Trump and musk? ( click, that’s why trump wants musk so bad- he’s got a fall guy ).
This would be a really good time to read up on proper hygiene and sanitation in daily life to avoid everything from communicable diseases to foodborne illness.
I suspect foodborne illness will increase, and finding the cause and recalling the products will be slow and sporadic.
lol who’s surprised he’s literally nominated to gut and destroy the institution that’s what all Trump appointees are tasked with are you guys still shocked your checks and balances are working
We’re going to die aren’t we? Rfk jr wants to send people on anti depressants to forced work camps to pick vegetables. Didn’t the Nazis do something like this? When are dems going to tell us how much danger we are in and fight back? @kenmartin.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov
I for one am happy I live near the border so when we can't get medicine and life saving technology I can hopefully buy it from Canada. I strongly recommend anyone not insane work to move to Democratic led states, it might save your life.
🤬 F him.
Am I wrong in thinking if Dems have majority they can stop a lot of what's coming??
I get a lot of Repubs are scared and I'm sorry they are - they took an Oath, uphold it or leave
That’s why they want anyway…kill as many people as possible so the don’t have to
Pay out any Medicare or Medicaid or social security etc etc
They want all the weaklings dead and musket is gonna create a super race and super slaves to serve them
The bastards are trying to get us down by making children suffer dangerous diseases unnecessarily. History may record this period as the dis-enlightenment, plagued by epidemics. Or it may refer to us as fools, a word we as children were taught not to use.
It's not JFK. It's not Trump. It's not Elon. It's the GOP letting this happen. We all need to point that out as often as possible. https://Trump.is not running again, but the GOP is.
What could go wrong? When he deprecated the pandemic preparedness team Obama had put in place… nope that actually went terribly wrong. Americans died. Needlessly.
