If anyone you know decided to take a drink every time Trump says "like never has been seen before" I beg you, please send an ambulance to their address.

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too.

I am begging the national media to start taking this seriously. Stop buying the claims that the framing of "temporary" or "pause." They are altering the review processes of federally funded scientific research from merit-based peer review processes to political screening by ideologues.

Given the heartless, bigoted, and cruel anti-trans garbage in the executive orders, I suppose there's some irony in that I feel absolutely no shame in deadnaming the Gulf of Mexico or Denali.
