The US is heading towards a presidential order to shoot protestors. Trump wanted to in his first term, the sort of officials who opposed it aren't in the second administration, and he doesn't fear criminal law anymore. But I don't know how it'll go. Real human beings would have to pull the triggers.

Here's how to contact Justicr Robert's let him know how much this hurts people

BREAKING—RFK Jr’s FDA suddenly cancels meeting to update next season’s flu vaccines, with zero explanations. Any delays will jeopardize next year’s vaccine supply chain. God help us all.

February 26, 2025 The Democrats are going to have to move faster or there won't be a government left to save. open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

Fuck you, John Roberts. Fuck you. www.cnn.com/2025/02/26/p...

I’m writing John Roberts to inform him that his block on USAID will kill and harm people bc he either doesn’t know or doesn’t care. Chief Justice Roberts Supreme Court of the United States 1 First Street, NE Washington, DC 20543

Shorter: Chief Supreme Court Justice, John Roberts, is helping the criminal in the Oval Office and his trillionaire Nazi boyfriend starve children to death around the world. #Resist www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

I know the right-wing propaganda machine is powerful, and that many Trump supporters have a cult-like devotion, but not all do, and going from “your life will be so much better right away” to “your life will be worse for a while” is a noticeable, less appealing change.

You don’t need to be an infectious disease doctor to see where this is going

I signed a letter to the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development questioning the alarming consequences of DOGE’s recently announced plans to lay off half of HUD’s staff.

Despite court order, NIH grants remain frozen. Newly awarded grants, grants with fundable scores, & funds for a new budget cycle of a current project are all *FROZEN*🥶 and not being released. US research is being choked to death & is on life support right now www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Oh wow, that business jet pilot at Midway was warned NINE TIMES to stop before the runway. Tragedy only averted because those SWA pilots were absolutely on top of their game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h04cF4cJDJc #aviation #nearmiss #midway

"As a strong advocate of free markets and personal liberties," explained Jeff Bezos, "I am curtailing what people are allowed to say here, in my ongoing effort to curry favor with a presidential administration that intervenes heavily in markets and is cracking down harshly on personal liberties."

What RFK should have said: "We have a safe and effective measles vaccine; measles is very dangerous to children, talk to your pediatrician about your comfort level with this vaccine, but I recommend it." On the pod, Trump-RFK-Musk are a public health menace: newrepublic.com/article/1920...

"We are becoming less free and our government more corrupt and abusive. But these changes are rarely perceptible from the vantage point of daily life. At least at the start, before some become too entrenched, too consolidated, too invasive to ignore." How it happens, via @aselrod.bsky.social:

Awful: Delivery of life saving treatment to nearly 400,000 severely malnourished kids abroad is in doubt amid USAID firings, the product's manufacturers tell me. The treatment is a paste made of peanuts, milk and sugar for kids on edge of starvation. Details here: newrepublic.com/article/1919...

Is it ok for someone overseeing the government to be personally profiting off government contracts -- or the elimination of government regulations -- in a massive set of conflicts of interest? This is a tweet about Elon Musk.

Ruhle: Do you consider yourselves left-wing media? Jordy Meiselas: We cast a big umbrella here, and more so than anything, I consider ourselves unapologetically pro-democracy. If you're pro-Constitution, pro-upholding norms, and pro-democracy, there's a spot for you on our roster.

“Trump Gaza” would mean 100,000 American troops in Gaza — fighting Hamas, door to door — and coming home in body bags. Is that what you voted for?

Another plane incident in DC: An American Airlines flight from Boston had to abort its landing at DCA airport this morning to avoid another plane that was taking off on the same runway, authorities said.

When you take a step back, it’s genuinely stunning how far any of this is from anything Trump campaigned on. It aligns perfectly w Project 2025 of course, but in terms of Trump’s public rhetoric, this was totally absent.

Trump is begs SCOTUS to “do something” about a reinstated gov watchdog. Musk runs a cabinet meeting while WH lawyers argue he has no power. Plus, SCOTUS takes on a reverse discrimination case, and more. Watch Legal AF at 8p ET/5p PT!

Is this the finding out part?

Your tips are still getting taxed. Your overtime is still getting taxed. Your Social Security is still getting taxed. Trump and Republicans have changed NOTHING — NONE of those changes were in the resolution they passed. Don’t let them lie to you.

Tesla’s shareholders just lost another $38,640,000,000 today — a total $TSLA loss of $600 billion since December. Tesla’s CEO was not in the office. In literally any other public company ever, this would be the point where the CEO gets fired.

The U.S. has officially recorded its first measles death since 2015. Texas health officials have confirmed that an unvaccinated child has passed away from measles amid a massive outbreak that has impacted nine counties in West Texas. 👉 meidasnews.com/news/the-uni...

Let's be clear. All these tech billionaires like Bezos and Musk and Zuckerberg didn't become right wingers because of some ideological awakening -- or because of "wokeness." It's because they're BILLIONAIRES and they want to avoid taxes. That's it. It's the MONEY.

Wyoming H5N1 bird flu case uploads to GISAID —PB2 E627K mutation detected Partial sequence from a Wyoming patient confirms H5N1 D1.1 genotype with PB2 E627K It’s a key adaptation for mammalian replication.

This is evil. Pure evil.

Arizona AG Kris Mayes, New Mexico AG Raul Torrez, and Oregon AG Dan Rayfield will begin holding Community Impact Hearings — a national series of townhalls "to hear from the public about the impact of federal firings and DOGE funding freezes across the country." The first will be in Phoenix March 5.

I stopped watching anything on MSNBC after the election. I'll catch few highlights from Maddow and Lawrence O'Donnell. RIP corporate cable news. MSNBC just went full Jim Crow and the Resistance is DONE with them open.substack.com/pub/adampark...

there's no better sign of how cooked Trump is than watching this sociopathic charisma void run his own cabinet meeting I thought Trump's ego wouldn't allow this to happen but he's just washed at this point and that makes Musk the greater threat

Confirmed to be an unvaxxed child. We have to talk about the foreign influence campaigns around vaccines. Hostile intelligence agencies — and their useful idiots in the US — are convincing the “do your own research” crowd to kill their children to own the libs.

Someone should count up the total number of @theatlantic.com articles that have all made this point. There has to be as many as a dozen. I nominate @michaelhobbes.bsky.social
