Gotta love when the worst nepo baby of all nepo babies, who has literally just cut 40% of the entire US Health & Human Services budget so that billionaires won’t have to pay taxes, says someone’s worth is defined by whether they are qualified to work certain jobs, create original art, and pay taxes.

I'm headed to Norway soon to get a break. My trip last summer was perfection. How fast can I learn Norwegian and who there wants to hire a public health program specialist? Cuz I'm good with staying.

I worked a 12 hour day (you know us lazy feds) to see the leaked HHS reorg plans. I can't even talk about it yet - I am too horrified. I'm shaking. Every day, a new reason to be ashamed of this country.

RFK Jr. paints autism in a apocalyptic colors. As an #ActuallyAutistic journalist who has spent the last decade writing about autism, I had to confront him about it. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

Powerful words by @choo.bsky.social in this @bmj.com piece: "We may now find out what happens when #publichealth is so compromised that it cannot continue to save our lives." A sad week for public health in the US

It's unbearable, and made worse when people say "oh corporate America does this stuff all the time you're just not used to it." Then the rage eclipses the depression.

Who is he going to tell? He fired the Div of Oral Health. DOH funded critical work that improved the oral health of older adults in partnership w/the aging services network & CDC Healthy Aging Program (also fired) back when CDC aging had no dedicated $. Excellent partners. And now they are gone.

If HHS is cutting 10,000 positions and the Department of Education has already slashed hundreds of special education and rehabilitative jobs—who’s left to manage IDEA for 7.5 million school kids? The claims that services are just being moved elsewhere simply don’t hold up.

I'm heartbroken for all the cuts made on Tuesday. But this one CANNOT stand. This lab provides vital services not found elsewhere. It must be reinstated.

Our best day in public health is when no one thinks about us working behind the scenes. You don't get measles bc you (& your community) are vaxxed. Your doc knows how to treat your STI. You aren't 🤮 bc of food safety standards. You aren't coughing due to smog bc of air quality regs. That's freedom!

This is sickening. Hundreds of billions of dollars to support immoral bullshit, while public health and lifesaving social services are slashed. All while we tumble further into debt. This budget will kill people.
