Not seeing it widely reported, but it’s on— over the past two days we have gotten many reports of fired contract employees at NIH. These are people who were on the arbitrary DOGE 35% cut list, and notifications are trickling out from their contract firms. 1/3

#USA the arrest of Judge Dugan was political theater, a distraction from the tariffs the failing trade war and the peace talks. All of which have been going bad for the 🍊 idiot. He continues to attack our institutions and our rights. DON'T GET DISTRACTED

Hey #Canada I know your election is in two days. Please choose country over political association. One guy will be the leader you need to lead and keep you strong. The other guy? He will destroy your institutions and take away rights. He's following an 🍊 playbook. Elbows up friends

Labour Party ads on Facebook today state that water company bosses face two years in jail for polluting rivers. That's a lie. A new law comes into force today which 'could see water bosses who cover up illegal sewage spills' jailed. That's a very, very different thing. www.gov.uk/government/n...

In 1967, Congress guaranteed Medicaid recipients' right to pick their provider. South Carolina is trying to deny patients' ability to choose Planned Parenthood for reproductive care. I joined @reprocaucus.bsky.social in an Amicus Brief urging SCOTUS to end the GOP's war on women.

More than 72 million Americans rely on Medicaid for health care coverage — that’s 1 in 5 people in this country. And 41% of ALL births care covered by Medicaid. Republicans want women pregnant with no access to maternity care. #MedicaidCutsKillUS

You don't need to be an expert to see #Russia's desperation. 🕵️‍♂️ Recent #Reuters investigation shows they've bought 4-6 million artillery shells from North Korea, spending $20 billion. 💸 Plus, 11k North Korean soldiers are on the front lines. Not a sign of strength.

I put a hold on Ed Martin’s nomination. He’s denied elections. Fired quality public servants. Attempted to chill free speech. Turns out he’s also carrying water for the Kremlin. So wholly unfit to be a U.S. Attorney.

Pierre Poilievre doesn’t talk about men’s biological clocks, sperm counts, or prostate health—because that would be invasive and absurd. So why is it acceptable for him to comment on women’s reproductive timelines? It’s not policy. It’s not leadership. It’s misogyny. #NeverPoiLIEvre

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett speaks the truth! Things are so screwed, but there's a lot of folks "whistling past the graveyard" (looking at you, "big media", reporting the nutty developments as "news" and not questioning them in public). Good for her for speaking up.👍

Acting on advice from a right-wing influencer, Trump fired the head of NSA. He’s eliminated programs monitoring foreign influence and disinformation. Fired those securing voting systems & degraded efforts to stop foreign intrusions. Making our elections less secure. And more vulnerable to Russia.

Correct. NIH, and the cancer and other medical cures it generates, is being burned to the ground. And we’d add: with that goes the whole US tech and biotech economy. Silicon Valley is in the US not elsewhere because of NSF, ARPA, NIH. That word isn’t getting out widely.

It’s time for Congress to reign in the Mad King. These tariffs haven’t even hit for real and the world is off the rails. Politically, it’s helpful to Dems, but this is why I’m not a good politician b/c I care too deeply about the harm on all people, even on those that hate my very existence.

Why is Trump going after US science? What's the endgame for these attacks? Vance, Rufo, Trump and Republican elites are attacking NIH and manipulating its grants in order to attack American universities. "It's bad, folks." New contributed post at our blog. Please share it w/ your 🧪 colleagues.

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

Trump and Musk are taking a chainsaw to public schools knowing it's not their kids who will suffer the consequences. Millions of families count on the Education Department to help fund their public schools and protect their rights. I'm calling for an independent investigation.

Maybe instead of purging the Social Security workers who make sure seniors get their checks on time, we should be expanding benefits to make life a little easier for your parents and grandparents.
