OPINION: "Attacks on disabled Americans and the policies we rely on lie at the core of so much of MAGA culture." @lollardfish.bsky.social, whose son is autistic and has Down syndrome, on how Trump admin. policies will affect people like his son.

📣 DC Join us Monday to RALLY FOR WORKERS! Everyone is invited to come out and show solidarity as we fight to #SaveOurServices and defend CFPB! There will be food + fun + a fighting spirit before NTEU heads to federal court Monday to fight this administration’s attempts to illegally destroy CFPB!

We need to learn and adapt. Every single Senate Dem vote for Rubio. It got us nothing. "Rollover and play dead" got us nothing. Fight back or lose the democracy. Full stop.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

Really excited to join this call. Also very excited to hear more from Mr. Kenyatta, who has done lots of good work for our state.

Unfortunately I won’t be to DC in time, but this rally for Ukraine is happening in Lincoln memorial. Attend if you can and Slava Ukrainii!

Friends, May we never forget that while negotiations,statements, addresses and the rest of the (undoubtedly important) diplomacy track are happening,exhausted #Ukrainian men &women in military uniform are holding back evil on the frontlines. Without them,there would be no diplomacy track at all.

A Republican Prayer.

In #Serbia, #USAID invests in independent media companies to become better businesses. They counter propaganda and amplify democratic, Western-aligned voices in countries where the Kremlin and China maintain strong networks. Attacks on USAID make us less safe. www.usaidstopwork.com/individuals

@mcuban.bsky.social as a young USAID employee…let me know if you want to talk. I’d be happy to tell you about the real work we’ve been doing, the impacts and why it is so important for our country. We don’t need to help people around the world but we should want to — it helps Americans stay safe.

Cost of saving the lives of 12 million children suffering from malaria: $20 million. #TeamUSAID #saveforeignaid

🏈Saved the lives of 25 million children suffering from severe malaria. We think this one has value on its own but maybe Musk would disagree This Superbowl Sunday, tell Congress to #saveforeignaid and #standwithUSAID

🏈Bought 66,000 metric tons of crops from American farmers and shipped them overseas to feed 8 million people on the brink of famine

Elon Musk reportedly spent $40 million dollars on #Superbowl ads calling #USAID wasteful. Here are just a few ways we would’ve spent $40 M: 🏈Purchased life-saving HIV treatment from American pharmaceutical companies to keep 1,060,000 million people alive for one year …..
