None of this has anything to do with effectiveness, or “lethality,” or promoting “warfighters," or any other buzzwords. It is praetorianism, plain and simple, and it is an assault on our military and our democracy. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Three things that make the U.S. the envy of the world: 1) Professionalized military with strong norm of civilian control 2) Higher education and cutting-edge scientific research 3) Ability to welcome immigrants and attract the “best and the brightest” All three are under threat.

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.

Some House lawmakers are raising “deep alarm” over DOGE’s interactions with NASA and potential conflicts of interest in a new letter released Friday. cnn.it/3Qw2GVG

Is... wait a minute... is this report indicating that Democrats sent a strongly worded letter? In response to beyond-Watergate-level corruption? Is that what we are down to, now? Strongly worded letters?

Trump just ordered the DOJ to eliminate the police misconduct database. Imagine losing your child to police brutality &finding out the officer had a violent history that wasn't tracked. That’s what happened to Eric Garners family. The officer who killed him had many complaints before that fatal day.

Stories and headlines like these are precisely the ones that we need to keep sharing far-and-wide. Flood the zone with the consequences of Elon and Trump's actions, especially if they hurt those who are generally beloved by the public, like military families. www.cnn.com/2025/02/20/p...

Truly pause and try to imagine having to say this to your child.

Senate confirms Patel to lead FBI www.nytimes.com/live/2025/02... Dems were no. Joined by two GOP: Senator Lisa Murkowski, a centrist Republican of Alaska, and Senator Susan Collins, Republican of Maine

This is the ad that Jeff Bezos refused to run in his Washington Post. Let’s refuse to let billionaires manipulate society.

BREAKING🚨: Three migrants just handed tRump a legal defeat, blocking their deportation to Guantanamo Bay. But tRump, ever the lawbreaker, ignored the court's order and shipped them off the next day. This is nothing short of UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Source ABC news.

Republicans want to kill your grandparents. They want to cut Medicaid by nearly a trillion bucks so billionaires keep more money in their accounts. Medicaid pays for nursing home care.

The FBI has only ever had Republican directors. Trump illegally forced out the last two FBI directors for not being Republican enough. Today, Senate Republicans let him appoint a new FBI director who posted an AI video of himself chainsawing Democrats’ heads off
