This was one of RFK Jr.’s first orders after being sworn in. Just an astonishing denial of science and will cause so much pain to the 45 million Americans facing mental health challenges.

This comment on r/fednews really stood out to me. Trump and Musk want people to think they're firing do-nothing "bureaucrats," but they're really getting rid of people dedicated to serving this country and keeping it operational. I hope these stories get told.

The Stonewall Riots happened because trans people, particularly of color, rose up against state violence. You can’t even begin to tell the story without our trans ancestors and elders. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/13/n...

The reality is that Musk has no idea what he's cutting. He spent the pre-inauguration period faking being the best Paths of Exile player in the world. He is now trying to simultaneously cut every part of a $6,752,000,000,000 budget, in weeks. He doesn't know what he's doing.

As Elon Musk continues to talk about subsidies, let’s remember that he is the LARGEST GOVT SUBSIDIES RECIPIENT in the country!

When protestors uttered the slogan “defund the police” the national media had a massive freak out. But now that Trump wants to actually gut the FBI and (it would seem) illegally fire 1000s of people who work there, the same media sees it as a curiosity, a dull bureaucratic matter.

I was briefly in the French horn world as an undergrad and remember well this man’s reputation—or better to say, the reputation he cultivated. The one he deserved was largely ignored for far too long as this excellent work of journalism makes sickeningly clear.

"Because the bullshit is baked in to everything Trump says, no one bothered to point out that this problem was supposed to have been solved in 2020 when Trump chucked NAFTA and replaced it with the (virtually identical) US-Mexico-Canada Agreement." -- @lizdye.bsky.social

Kaine on RFK Jr: "He's such a brain-addled conspiracy theorist... he tweeted on his own account, 'I won't take sides on 9/11'... I don't even know what that means. Does he think it was space lasers?"

Trump 2018 vs Trump tonight. Quite the contrast. When good things happen, Trump takes credit. When bad stuff happens, Trump takes no responsibility.

So instead of Democrats pointing out that Trump gutted the FAA and tried to mass-fire them the day before the crash, we have Trump flooding the airwaves with the idea that it's DEI's fault. Dems are simply not cut out for this media environment. Too slow, too cautious, too boring, too staid.
