The reply email inbox for this “what did you do last week” email is [email protected], so, you know, definitely don’t send them any unrelated messages that would interfere with their ability to carry out Elon’s dumbass bullshit

A core problem here is that like many things, the public discourse is totally playing on the right's terms. It's not "DEI" to research gender/racial inequality. DEI is a propaganda phrase to denote unnecessary excess in the mind of the public, like HR trainings. That's not what they're eliminating.

For decades, the US government has painstakingly kept American science #1 globally—and every facet of American life has improved because of it. The internet? Flu shot? Ozempic? All grew out of federally-funded research. Now all that's being dismantled. 1/ www.technologyreview.com/2025/02/21/1...

Donald Trump and Elon Musk have unleashed chaos and confusion on the American people. If you have lost your job, been denied important services, or face other impacts because of the Trump Administration's illegal actions, we want to hear directly from you. democraticleader.house.gov/shareyourstory

was not aware the new anti-health secretary is a scientist. I thought he was a lawyer (and conspiracy theorist)

Elon Musk just waved a chainsaw around a stage to illustrate his approach to cutting federal employees. Since it is illegal to employ metaphors now, presumably Martin will be emailing him.

it would be super neat if the person who sent these “instructions” had actually tried to follow them as written so they would know how useless said instructions are

anyway the admin and its techbro goon squad demonstrate on a daily basis they don’t know how fedgov works, specifically the layers of checks against actual waste/fraud/abuse and other wrongdoing that are baked in to the whole system. perhaps if they had availed themselves of the mandatory trainings

people who say “why do we need [fine arts, humanities degrees, mid-budget films] when they don’t make a ton of money?” are insufferable. why do we need chrysanthemums? why do we need bonfires or baleen whales or the color blue? we just do. we just do.

The CDC has an ultra-competitive 2-year program to train "the best of the best" to lead public health labs. Most of the current class were terminated over the weekend. www.science.org/content/arti... (by @meredithwadman.bsky.social)

no coincidence the cuts are at programs that invest in and grow the fed workforce. you only invest in yr workforce if you care, and this admin does not care to grow the country’s workforce

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.

It's not that it would be "difficult" for Energy and Commerce to hit their $880 billion target without steep cuts Medicaid. It's a mathematical impossibility, given the committee's jurisdiction and constraints of reconciliation.

maybe if you’re a public health professional you should draw the line at going along with anti-medical science campaigns

it’s just so bold for a party to have so completely embraced evil that they are cutting jobs and also food assistance (and also soon our minimal public retirement and disability programs)
