Hello lovely 🦋 people, now that I'm here, a brief 🧵 about my work: I'm a reporter who has been covering AI & its impact on society for 6+ years. I investigate tech companies, tell human stories, and am writing a book about OpenAI—a tale about the money, power & ideology that shapes AI & the world.

For decades, the US government has painstakingly kept American science #1 globally—and every facet of American life has improved because of it. The internet? Flu shot? Ozempic? All grew out of federally-funded research. Now all that's being dismantled. 1/ www.technologyreview.com/2025/02/21/1...

Americans have favorable views of many federal programs, less so of DOGE Down, down, down the DOGE flows! The end of this debacle Won't be pretty for unelected Musk & DonOld dementia stricken Trump!

Let's say their names: * General CQ Brown, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff: FIRED FOR BEING BLACK * Admiral Lisa Franchetti, Chief of Naval Operations: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE * Admiral Linda Fagan, Coast Guard Commandant: FIRED FOR BEING FEMALE All replaced by less qualified white guys.

"The United States and NATO can counter Putin’s criminal action and restore international order—not just in Europe, but anywhere an aggressive, authoritarian country might be considering a land-grab." All we have to do is do it. ICYMI @markhertling.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/marco-rubi...

The town's people should hold a town hall anyway invite the Republican reps and if they don't show, put up a life size cutout of the rep. If they don't want to hear our voice, then that means we need to talk a little LOUDER! Rebs stop giving all your power to Trump and Musk! We aint elect Musk!

Do not buy where you will not be hired

‼️POWER TO THE WOMEN‼️💪💪💪 Today in 2018, a strike was organized by women in Spain to mark International Women's Day. The strike was called for Mar 8, but it was preceded by a strike on Feb 22, which was organized to protest gender-based violence and inequality. #StrongerTogether #BadassFeminists /1

The Australian own fox is not allowed to put out flase news in Australia. But they allowed to do it here... Think 🤔 about that...

Brown had to go - he was serving his country while black.

For those at the back…

Always stand up to a bully

WV will suffer more as time passes. I left there long ago, but am sad for poor people there.

Millions of dumb Americans who think they know everything are going to have to learn the hard way now.

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

And remove him...

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.
