We have a winner…🏆

“He tried to kill his own Vice President. Do you think he cares about you?” -Barack Obama

THIS IS TERRIFYING‼️ Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines. He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.

Again.

Trump slapped tariffs on Canada. The Senate just slapped back. 51 Senators—including McConnell, Paul, Collins, and Murkowski—voted to repeal them. It won’t clear the House, but the message is loud: Even Republicans know this trade war is torching their own voters.

Can someone let the "anti-Semitism Committee" formed by Trump know that there's a Republican Congressman named Keith Self openly quoting Joseph Goebbels, today? What the fuck?

just started watching and he's talking about the importance of NIH funded research: "let me repeat 99.4% of FDA approved drugs were funded by NIH research" 🧪

what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like “we need more ambition right now.” there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. he’s doing it!

Thank you Switzerland! 🇨🇭

The thing is- I don’t think America knows what’s coming. Most Americans don’t have the imagination for it and they don’t have the lived-experience. Timothy Snyder studies it. I’ve seen it too. Rights and freedoms once lost are almost impossible to regain.

May he never be referred to as Pete Hegseth again. This alcoholic is #WhiskeyLeaks. Now and forever. #SignalGate #WhiskyLeaks

Dozens more pregnant and postpartum women have died in Texas hospitals since the state banned abortion, our analysis shows. As the maternal mortality rate dropped nationally, it rose in Texas by 33%.

Every single Democratic lawmaker should be calling for Hegseth's immediate resignation right now. Not just some. Not just a few dozen. Every single one, starting at the top with Mr. Schumer and Mr. Jeffries. And the fact that it hasn't happened yet is nearly as shocking as Hegseth's conduct.

You’re next.

If only America would protect school children the way it protects Teslas.

A pie graph worth keeping in mind as the NIH budget plummets jamanetwork.com/journals/jam... for 356 new FDA drugs approved

Wow, just WOW!! Looks like orange Slim Shady is at it again…👇 What. The. Actual. Fuck. ✨

This is what we’ve come to, and so quickly.

Medicare for All isn't radical. What's radical is that we are the only major country not to guarantee health care as a human right. Every other major country figured out years ago how to provide health care to all at a much lower cost. Please don't tell me we can't do the same.

every person involved in this needs to be in prison

This is the most dangerous and stupid moves of them all to date.

Welp, there goes the US defense industry.

The National Weather Service is facing significant staffing cuts and has temporarily reduced weather balloon launches at several sites. These balloons are a key tool used by meteorologists to gather data for weather forecast models.

Now that I am finished screaming into the void about schooling for kids with disabilities being assigned to RFK: understand what this means. He’s lumping accommodations into HHS, meaning those needs are now considered medicalized. Different from everyday education. This is eugenics.

So suspending the Constitution? That’s martial law. Over a giant lie about crime and migrants.

for the one millionth time, the dept of education just monitors access to education. civil rights, title ix, disabilities, making sure everybody gets a fair opportunity. this is not about curriculum. states design those standards. this is an attack on the idea of fairness in education.

Doing this is purposeful. What could be the benefit? To get us to revolt so he can declare martial law? To isolate us like a narcissist does to their spouse? What. What is the reason?

Jesus Christ

Look, folks, you don't have to believe me. Literally, the guy who wrote the books & coined the terms is telling you it's a five-alarm fire. If Steve is saying this, you should be deeply, immediately, & overwhelmingly concerned.

The UK has now issued a travel warning for the US: possible arrest or detention for failing to meet entry requirements.

Folks always ask me how they can make a difference. Find an elderly person who isn’t tech savvy. Help them confirm their Social Security information online. Starting March 31, phone verification will no longer be allowed for Social Security benefits, and in person will be slower as offices close.

Every American should read this. We are doing this to helpless people on purpose, just for fun. Is it ok with you? I’m so ashamed of us.

Jawdropping. You would expect this in a dictatorship, not the United States. This country is unrecognizable.

Musk and Trump’s Cuts Could Cost Millions of Lives Bill Gates warns that slashing USAID funding and gutting PEPFAR—which saved 26M lives from HIV/AIDS—puts millions at risk. Musk admitted, “We went overboard,” but the damage is done. Cutting aid for 1.6% of the budget isn’t cost-cutting—it’s cruel.
