The Social Security Administration just put everybody who manages its agency website on administrative leave. "If there's a website problem, I don’t know who's gonna fix it." It also shuttered its civil rights office. www.nextgov.com/people/2025/...

House Republicans just passed a budget that would kick families off their health care, shut down nursing homes, and force kids to go hungry—all to pass more tax cuts for billionaires that will blow up our national debt.

Elon fired another 1,400 workers at VA who help veterans get health care & benefits—with ZERO justification. Many of those fired were veterans THEMSELVES. Given how thoughtless these layoffs have been, I am deeply alarmed about delays in veteran care & threats to patient safety.

How long until the Library of Congress faces a purge? Should historians be getting what resources they can now? I'm imagining anything related to the civil rights movement, anti-fascism, and even public health could be gone soon.

Looks like it’s too much to ask for Democrats to oppose fascists.

I'm hearing that right now, Trump is firing researchers at VA. Trump & Elon need to reverse course on this IMMEDIATELY—this across-the-board firing threatens to decimate so much of the lifesaving research our veterans depend on: suicide prevention, burn pit exposure, and more.
