Trump and Elon just began firing hundreds of NOAA workers serving “mission-critical and life-saving roles.” These climate experts and forecasters are crucial to tracking natural disasters like hurricanes. Make no mistake, their terminations will cause preventable deaths.

The next DOGE target could be the FDIC, which was already experiencing a staffing shortage before Trump's hiring freeze. Remember: the FDIC was created during the Depression to protect people's deposit accounts. Gutting it could lead to another financial meltdown.

Last night Elon Musk moved to kill the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. His team is now inside, and he posted “CFPB RIP 🪦” on X. This agency has saved Americans billions. DOGE isn’t about cutting waste—it’s about dismantling the government so Musk and his billionaire friends can take control.

Very unwelcome news! H5N1 genotype D1.1 6 identified in 6 Nevada dairy herds. This is NOT the strain that's been circulating on farms so far. It's the strain that sent a 13yo girl in Canada to ICU, and that killed a man in Louisiana. Very bad time for a public health comms blackout.
