btw, i will tell you this - i have been talking to people all day, and the media is missing, whether intentionally or not, how absolutely, volcanically angry the people who have been fired are, not because they lost their jobs, but because their jobs matter, *to us*

Side note. There are eight members of the joint chiefs. the chair is black. the CNO (navy) is a woman. the other six are white guys. chair and the cno got fired tonight.

men who dressed like this from 2008 - 2012 had preppy menswear blogs

Oh fuck, what a grift. J6 terrorists sue a DOJ controlled by Trump; Trump orders DOJ lawyers to settle for an undisclosed amount, both sides agree to an NDA. This can happen dozens, hundreds of times. Just an ingenious way to funnel tax dollars to far-right terrorist groups.

BREAKING: @pogo.org sued Trump and DOGE in federal court in D.C. today over the administration's efforts to treat DOGE records as presidential records not subject to FOIA for now. Complaint: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

If we have enough people with the knowledge and moral fortitude of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and the Associated Press- we might be able to save our Democracy

I’m telling you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, please watch this. This is the energy. Not egg prices and book tours and strongly worded letters. It’s time to take the gloves off.

The @nytimes.com changed the story and has now added this info after I caught them last night. This is why I screenshot these stories. There was no editors note added nor did they point out that a stealth edit was made. h/t @shoq.bsky.social

Over on X, simple tweets by my colleague Greg Bluestein of the Atlanta Journal Constitution have been blocked. They were nothing but video of a town hall held by Rep. Rich McCormick R-GA where he was asked questions about DOGE

Carville: USAID spent $41 billion the federal budget is 6 trillion. Actually comes to something like .014%. So take that and put it against the 6 trillion and see what you have done when your president is responsible for more federal debt than any president in the history of the United States.

Crockett: "Down in Alabama, who's broke. Down in Louisiana, who's broke. I can go through pretty much the entire south and tell you that they're broke and rely on a lot of welfare from the government. To be perfectly honest, it is tax dollars from these big blue states...we're in the find out phase"

Hey everyone! I did an emergency live over on Substack, reminding us all that we will win this thing! Take a look! adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/emergency-...

Posted minutes after the Commander of the ISS said Musk lied about the stranded astronauts in his Fox interview with Trump.

This will go down as the real end.

WATCH: “What are you going to do to rein in the megalomaniac in the White House?” An @reprichmccormick town hall in a red GEORGIA district erupts in cheers - then boos loudly as he tries to invoke Biden and both-sides Trump’s actions. Full video: www.instagram.com/reel/DGUf45s...

Love this guy. He appeared on the Mueller, She Wrote podcast in 2018. Hell of an activist.

A small museum says all but one sponsor of a Girls in STEM event backed out, fearing retaliation from the Trump administration over "DEI." Evan Kruegel reports for @nexton9news.bsky.social. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zg1n...

I haven’t verified the shadow ban. But, if you do, I know someone who’d be interested.

There are moments in these deportation fights when I can just FEEL how pissed off they are that I’m Puerto Rican 😂 they want to threaten me with it so bad 😂
