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 United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

What a dilemma for Tommy Tuberville. He now has to say that Trump completely lied about the story where he had a whole conversation with Tommy about coaching Mahomes. Or he has to lie and say that he coached Mahomes. What’s a good cultist supposed to do here?

The 2nd tweet in this thread says there have been 2 confirmed #Ebola cases in Uganda, per @WHOAFRO. @AfricaCDC says 4. No details of who the cases are, but there is the nurse (dead) & his wife. Another family member & some HCWs were being tested so.... africacdc.org/download/afr...

@raskin.house.gov: "It's a completely humiliating thing to them. You have members like Marco Rubio or Ted Cruz who Trump has personally insulted, has called their wives ugly... and they all come and kiss his ring. It's utterly abasing and humiliating and denigrating for them-- but they do it."

Community health centers are now starting to shut down across the country because of Trump’s executive orders. These centers serve 1-in-5 rural patients in America.

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives

Why the fuck is a single Senate Democrat playing “everything is normal” by voting to confirm the Cabinet picks of a fucking dictator? Do. Not. Comply. You have ALL spent the last how many years calling him Hitler and now you’re like, ‘I’m a yes on Goebbels and here’s why…” Fuck that. Stop it. Now.

He feels compelled to pretend he knows things other people don't. It's a classic tell in people who are insecure about their intellect. Smart people listen more and ask good questions. Idiots have a quick answer for everything.

Trump: I'm gutting a key part of executive branch oversight by purging inspector generals. I'm not even giving Congress the legally required notice. Democratic senators: A bit concerning. But we don't want to slow you down. Let's approve Noem at DHS (w/ some Dem votes) ASAP!

ATTN: This is most important court hearing to watch next week. The GOP does not want this case in federal court because they know a federal judge is not likely to toss out 60,000 lawful votes. Their plan is to have the partisan NC state Supreme Court decide. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I'm sorry this article says "THE WHITE HOUSE IS NEGOTIATING THE DEAL." The fascism is coming so fast now I literally cannot keep up. Also I'd rather have fucking China own TikTok than Trump's billionaire bootlickers.

We will now get to watch SCOTUS either uphold the Constitution, or parse "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" to justify internment and mass deportation.

57% of all forest land in California is under federal jurisdiction, including the #HughesFire burning in the Angeles National Forest. We're offering mutual aid and support to the federal government to help contain the blaze and we are deeply grateful for the crews keeping our communities safe.

I appear on @CNN often. And if saying this means my days at CNN are over, then fuck it. CNN, removing @Acosta.bsky.social from his am show is cowardly bullshit. Acosta is an independent, unafraid host. To demote him to appease the crybaby in the White House is pathetic. Shame on u CNN. Don’t do it.

As much as MAGA is salivating over a potential third term in office for their old azz dictator Trump, and it won’t happen. But it did expose their utter shamelessness and disregard for the founding principles of this nation. Again.

I've shared this article so many times because IT'S THE REASON! 🚨🚨 Everyone should read AND SHARE this. Until the Left grasps (blue bubble dwellers are extremely challenged here), addresses and solves it, America is doomed to spiral into Christofascist, racist, misogynist, oligarchal control
