This story can't be repeated enough. The GOP is lined up behind the guy who is so incompetent that his quasi-gov't agency did this. They're confirming his highly questionable nominees & hurting the American people. And "accidentally"? It was stupidity, not accident. www.nbcnews.com/politics/dog...

1. The Senate confirmed RFK Jr at the same time as a massive measles outbreak was sweeping through areas of Texas with low vaccination rates. RFK Jr visited Texas yesterday. Not to address the burgeoning crisis but to continue to push anti-vaccine messaging.

Stop asking where former Vice President Kamala Harris is, she was right there willing to save us all from impending doom and many people failed her in order to choose doom instead just to see others suffer. Leave her the fuck alone, she owes no one anything.

Majority party congressional Republicans are acquiescing in the Administration’s lawlessness at every turn. If just a few of them would stand up to anything it would matter.

The consequences of shutting down USAID will be felt worldwide, but also here at home. Our farmers feed the world, and cutting off exports through USAID programs will be a huge blow to rural economies across the country.

‪ ‪@presentdarkness.bsky.social This is 💯 spot on. Congress, you created this monster! The American people will never forget your derelict actions when it mattered the most! If you don't heed the voices of the people, the people will remove you from your cushy seats! #Bluecrew #Resistance

We need to lower costs, not give an unelected billionaire access to critical payment systems. We need to expand health care, not halt funding for new cancer trials. We need to protect taxpayer dollars, not fire watchdogs. We must hold the Trump administration accountable.

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency
