Trump & RFK Jr. fired the ENTIRE staff who run a program that 80,000+ households in WA state rely on to heat and cool their homes. If funds don't go out and working families and seniors are stranded in deadly heat waves this summer, we know exactly why.

I’ve called for an independent investigation into whether Trump used his dumb trade war to manipulate the market and benefit his Wall Street donors. It smells like corruption. And it’d fit his pattern of helping the rich get richer while working families pay the price.

This is happening in spite of the fact that the president is not in charge of the Smithsonian. It's not an executive branch government agency, rather it's chartered by Congress and under a board of regents created by statute, none of whom are even appointed by the president.

Only sycophants who lavish praise on Dear Leader are fit for command! The Trump virus is slowly infecting everything that was once good about this country! Soon, military leadership will only have allegiance to Trump instead of the Constitution! 🤬 #ProudBlue

Social Security taken over by Musk and his DOGE goons and Palantir (Wired): The SSA will no longer communicate with the media and public via press releases and letters, as it shifts its public communication exclusively to X, sources tell WIRED. The news comes amid major staffing cuts at the agency.

We’re accelerating our descent to a banana republic. We’re also ceding leadership/talent in science to other countries. It’ll be them that’ll benefit from the innovations, new discoveries & entrepreneurship that emerges. We’ve replaced our shining beacon of light atop the hill w/ the Eye of Sauron.🧪

So which Dem Senators are gonna betray us in the Screw American Voters Everywhere (SAVE) Act? The fact that we have beg any Dem in Congress not to vote for this is insane. They should be telling the GOP to fuck off on instinct. THIS would be the time for Cory Booker to filibuster for real.

Fetal personhood laws that give embryos equal rights as a person are dangerous for women. They can be used to arrest someone for having an abortion, a stillbirth, or a miscarriage – like what happened to Selena in Georgia. We can't let fetal personhood become federal law.
