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.

The next time someone tries the," We should be angry at the dems and Jefferies for not......" Translate that to ," We want to focus on the Dems to keep you distracted from what the Republicans are actually doing"

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

NEW: Public health teams are being gutted, imperiling efforts to safeguard organ donation and prevent maternal and infant death. Many workers expressed fear at what would happen to the work they left behind.

🗣️ @aoc.bsky.social out fighting for the people & federal workers: “Every day our job is to wake up and say ‘what can I do today?’ — There is no act too small. Every action matters.” 🇺🇸

Currently on a great MoveOn call with over a thousand Organizers and advocates! If you tag me in your post that includes an RSVP link to a local protest/event, I will re-post! Take it to the streets! #FireElon

Hackers have illegally accessed our most private information and only half of America seems to care.

Spot on.

@cnn.com @msnbc.com @nytimes.com @newyorker.com @theatlantic.com @motherjones.com I was gonna add Washington Post and LA Times but they are a bunch of bitches.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

Wonder how long they'll let Trump and Musk destablize the country and the💲. "The Canadian dollar strengthened to a two-month high against its U.S. counterpart on Thursday as U.S. bond yields declined and a key level of support for the American currency gave way." www.reuters.com/markets/curr...

Sad that they had to turn to Russia

This is why certain parts of Africa can't have nice things...

Proud of prosecutors in SDNY and Washington who resigned rather than carry out DAG Emil Bove’s order to dismiss indictment against NYC Mayor Eric Adams. Integrity > politics and careerism.

Truly wild to see how Trump is playing second fiddle to Elon Musk. Musk is clearly acting as the de-facto president while Trump just fires off social media posts as if he is Musk's assistant.

Yep...O'brien has been really quiet. Hasn't he?

(1,2) Tomorrow will be 7 years since my daughter Jaime was murdered in the Parkland school shooting. Because of what happened to my family, we started our Orange Ribbons for Jaime foundation to help families affected by gun violence. orange-ribbons-for-jaime.myshopify.com/collections/...

A team Microsoft calls BadPilot is acting as Sandworm's “initial access operation,” the company says. And over the last year it's trained its sights on the US, the UK, Canada, and Australia.

The USA has a child marriage epidemic—and it's even worse than you think. Despite more than 300,000 documented child marriages since 2000 (yes, 300K, not a typo), Republicans are fighting to keep it that way. Here's what we need to do to stop this injustice: www.qasimrashid.com/p/the-usa-ha...

I'm sure Putin is very happy.

This is the perfect time for the Dems, the DNC,and their allies to step up and start naming names and letting people know what is going ... Ad and PSA everywhere. @mcuban.bsky.social and @lincolnproject.us this is when your money and influcence come in to play start letting people know.

She helped put a sexual predator back in the Oval Office.

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

Using executive orders to circumvent Congress is unconstitutional, you say, Republicans?

Best thing I’ve read today 😂😂😂

The Gulf of America and Google: A geography lesson in three screenshot

Freeland: Our retaliation is going to be a lot more surgical than that. We are going to go after American stakeholders who matter to The White House. I have proposed a 100% tariff on all Teslas. I am calling on all the countries that are affected by this tariff to join us
