crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/... This report lists how many fed workers are in each state and congressional district as of Dec 2024. Ask your Republican reps, how many of these people will vote for them if they have lost their jobs, health insurance, the ability to house/feed their families.

Hey Republicans, just what is it that you thought would happen?

The IRS Free File pilot program helped 140K taxpayers save $5.6M in tax filing costs in 2024. Despite recent claims, the program is still running and is now available to 30M people in 2025. Any attempt to dismantle it will enrich the tax prep industry at your expense.

I’m not going to share the article. I’m just going to say that the words and deeds and hate of elected leaders in this country are getting people killed. Full stop. No excuses. It has to stop. May Sam rest in peace.

This is the way.

Dear, the rest of the world, Please help us.

CDC source: “We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff. They are calling this ‘Phase 1’.”

It's interesting to find out just how stupid politicians and businessmen can be.

@mitchmcconell.bsky.social and @MichaelPence you arrogant fools. You could have gotten rid of Trump. You had 3 opportunities, and you blew It. Anything that happens to the U.S.A now is your fault.

I really believe that these billionaires are hard-core money addicts. They are as much addicted as if they were using heroin.

This morning, President Trump and his crony Elon Musk illegally seized $80M in congressionally-appropriated FEMA funding from NYC bank accounts. Trump and Elon stole tens of millions of dollars straight from our bank accounts--this is highway robbery, and NY cannot take this lying down.

Is this really what you want for our country @JeffBezos, @MarkZuckerberg. Is this how you feed your addiction to collecting money, by assisting in the destruction of the people of this country?

She speaks truth.

This is the most relevant article to NIH and research cuts I’ve seen. Imagine if this was today , how many people would be saying “Why are we studying Gila Monsters and their impact on diabetes ? That’s wasted money !” globalnews.ca/news/9793403...

At Cabaret yesterday, Cliff said his line “…if you’re not against all this then you’re for it. Or you might as well be”. The audience interrupted the scene to applaud that line so strongly it stopped the show. Doing a show about the onset of fascism right now is. . . chilling.

Can New York secede from the union? I'm starting to think that would be the best solution to Trump.

📌Longer life expectancy. 📌Universal healthcare coverage. 📌Lower healthcare cost per person. 📌Higher health-related quality of life (HRQL) than Americans.

Are you happy Mitch McConnell?

Any time we see another CEO pony up a million for Trump’s inauguration, remember this headline.

Some Deep Thoughts from Deep Space.

They have a point.

This is a very helpful list. Can’t remember where I found it— perhaps through @prisonculture.bsky.social. Let’s get to work. docs.google.com/document/u/0...
