I guess he can just declassify them all now & hand them out like party favors.

I don’t even know how this could be presented as being in service of anything other than hindering scientific progress.

February update: What are our Democratic leaders doing? Big difference between the parties. One works FOR Americans. One works AGAINST us. For our adversaries. Only ONE embarrassed us before the world today. Here's what our pro-American leaders have done: #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory #Opposition

I've seen three different articles on this, because the guy who owns the company that makes this stuff reached out to the press. He's got 400,000 boxes of life-saving goo sitting in a warehouse, and if USAID won't accept it, he's going to have to throw it out.

Trump EO’s English As America’s #OfficialLanguage Fucking hell SO…if you don’t Already know it Get on a translation app & tell him How you feel about it IN SPANISH And not just here… HE MUST SEE & KNOW How we feel Once a day I go 2 the bad place 2 fucking tell ‘em #LetsGoGirlsRebellion🎩🔥 . 🦋🩵

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Trump's 𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭 to our ally in the Oval Office is a DAMN SHAME.  Denigrating a democratic world leader while sitting next to him has not only jeopardized our work with global allies. Once again, Trump's ego just put our national security at risk.

GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office. ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

NEW: RFK Jr.'s "radical transparency" means ending a 54-year-old transparency policy. A Nixon-era policy gave the public the ability to comment on HHS decisions relating to “public property, loans, grants, benefits, or contracts.“ RFK Jr. ended that on Friday. www.lawdork.com/p/rfk-jr-rad...

Russia's useful idiot on full display today. That said, we knew that about him. Republicans in the House and Senate, was it enough to finally convince you to stand up for and protect and defend America?

I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what Trump did.

Trump and Vance are the greatest threats to national security alive today. Not immigrants. Not LGBTQ people. Not DEI.

The Department of Ed has a form to snitch on DEI policies in schools. I’d be a shame if we broke it with thousands of responses… enddei.ed.gov

Good God, this is so embarrassing. If you weren’t worried enough about flying,apparently, Elon Musk is in charge of air traffic controllers now, but he doesn’t even know the mandatory retirement age is 56.

TODAY…

Don’t forget. For anyone who can, please abstain from buying anything tomorrow, unless it’s from a local business. We want to send a clear fucking message to these corporations & the WH fucktwat, that we have the power, not them. If you’re in, raise your hand & say “Fuck Fascism!” ✋🏻

The Trump administration terminates funding for polio, HIV, malaria and nutrition programs around the world. “People will die,” said Dr. Catherine Kyobutungi of the African Population and Health Research Center, “but we will never know, because even the programs to count the dead are cut.”

First, they said postponed; now the meeting is canceled. That means no flu shots next year. “'It’s a six-month production cycle,' Dr. Offit said. 'So one can only assume that we’re not picking flu strains this year.'" Fundamentally, that's a form of mass murder. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

The People's Union USA, a grassroots group, is calling on Americans to join a national boycott by not shopping for 24 hours on Friday.

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.

NEW: “Kennedy paused a multimillion dollar project to create a new Covid-19 vaccine in pill form on Tuesday, and the Food and Drug Administration canceled an advisory committee meeting on updating next season’s flu vaccine.” newrepublic.com/post/192059/...

Im excited to take place in the economic blackout boycott tomorrow. I hope you'll join me and millions of others.

All probationary federal employees at NOAA’s EMC that’s responsible for keeping all US weather model systems running have been fired with 1 hours notice. And that includes me and colleagues. We will not go quietly because we care about the NOAA mission to protect the public.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

TOMORROW- Friday, February 28th is BLACKOUT FRIDAY! If you believe we are in danger of losing our Democracy forever, FIGHT BACK! Let's make our voices heard in numbers too big to ignore. JOIN US if you've had it with Comrade Krasnov. 🤬 🇷🇺 #24HourEconomicBlackout

A grassroots movement is calling on all Americans to abstain from shopping with major retailers tomorrow, February 28, as part of an “economic blackout.” I encourage you to join. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/boycott

Reluctance to acknowledge the airborne transmission of airborne pathogens because of the implications for governments, businesses, and healthcare services. Failure by some to recognize that SARS-CoV-2 transmission is also airborne. And so COVID continues, together with a cocktail of other pathogens.

"Cuts have no apparent regard for civil society or opportunity costs or long-term strategic thinking. Their targets are Elon Musk’s and Project 2025’s targets. They have found no fraud, just democracy at work. They’re apparently eager to see what happens when it no longer does." Brian Barrett:

w/ story link: Breaking: FDA's March meeting to select flu shot strains for 2025-2026 season has been canceled per email sent to committee members. Drug cos need about 6 months leeway to make shots in time for fall vax campaigns. w/ story link: insights.citeline.com/pink-sheet/v... #healthpolicy

ah, as always, elon has his eyes on the prize: making it impossible for the government to enforce civil rights law

When you take a step back, it’s genuinely stunning how far any of this is from anything Trump campaigned on. It aligns perfectly w Project 2025 of course, but in terms of Trump’s public rhetoric, this was totally absent.

Yes I am already brainstorming ways to get a flu vaccine next year in Canada because I, for one, love my northern neighbors.

How’s this WSJ take aging

I take care of children who DIE of conditions that we can’t prevent and that despite our very best efforts we cannot cure. The fact that CHILDREN DIE of diseases that can be completely eradicated with safe and effective vaccines makes me LIVID.

Oh.

Confidence in the economy hasn’t dropped this sharply in years. That’s probably because Trump hasn’t lifted a finger to help the economy in his 29 days as president. In fact, he’s pushing policies, like tariffs and halting investments in clean energy manufacturing, that will actively raise prices.

BREAKING—RFK Jr’s FDA suddenly cancels meeting to update next season’s flu vaccines, with zero explanations. Any delays will jeopardize next year’s vaccine supply chain. God help us all.

Narrator: Bongino is of course a far right podcaster.

Get in good trouble, necessary trouble.

It is really hard to watch people willfully tear down an infrastructure that allowed us to double lifespans, drastically reduce poverty, and become one of the richest countries in the world.

Medicaid is a lifeline for people with disabilities and seniors, yet Congress is getting ready to cut billions of dollars in Medicaid funding. If these cuts are approved, millions of people will lose access to crucial care.

NEWS The FDA, which operates under the authority of Robert Kennedy Jr., canceled the meeting to discuss next year’s flu vaccines. This could interfere with or delay production of flu vaccines. 86 children and 19,000 adults have died from flu this season. About 430,000 people were hospitalized.

Meeting to choose next year's flu shots is canceled. We will not have enough shots for next flu season. endpts.com/fda-meeting-...

Breaking: FDA's March meeting to select flu shot strains for 2025-2026 season has been canceled per email sent to committee members, a VRBPAC member told me. drug companies need about 6 months leeway to make shots in time for fall vax campaigns. #healthpolicy
