NEW: When a firefighter dies, a small team of federal health workers helps pinpoint what went wrong and identify how to avoid similar accidents in the future. Trump laid off nearly all of them.

👇🎯 They. Are. Breaking. Signed. Contracts. For. No. Legal. Reason. You want to pass legislation not funding this stuff going forward? Fine. Epically idiotic, but legal. This is something else. Shredding the basic foundations of the rule of law. Textbook authoritarianism.

HEALTH CARE IS NOT A REWARD FOR OBEDIENCE. DUE PROCESS OF LAW IS NOT A REWARD FOR OBEDIENCE. HUMAN RIGHTS ARE NOT A REWARD FOR OBEDIENCE. THESE ARE THE UNIVERSALLY ENSURED GUARANTEES OF A SOCIETY THAT TREATS ITS PARTICIPANTS AS PEOPLE RATHER THAN THINGS.

A measles-infected quack treated children in Texas while RFK Jr., now Health Secretary, praised him as an “extraordinary healer.” As measles spreads across 24 states, RFK pushes junk cures and anti-vax lies. Three are dead, and the cult of ignorance sits at the head of public health. 1/2

Stop calling it deporting, so MAYBE more Americans will get it. "Deporting" is sending someone back, after due process, to the country they came from, where they arrive a free person. This is human trafficking to a foreign torture prison for the rest of their lives. GET THE LANGUAGE RIGHT.

Remember, don’t engage with any counter protesters. Their goal is to turn our peaceful displays of democracy into violence. And for those who want to believe we are being paid, it’s easy to find out for sure: just show up yourself and get paid too! 😉

Fun Tariff Facts: during the depression the US lost access to many imported paper products. They were replaced with an unusually tough paper stock made of hemp from the Philippines (then a US colony, and tariff exempt). Anyway, that’s why they were, and still are, called Manila folders / envelopes.

Angel of the Lord: He is not here, He is risen, just as He said. Come and see the place where He lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead. Alito: Okay, first of all, this violates ALL sorts of rules Thomas: This was a LAWFUL execution, who is God to interfere

The Stones record “Jumpin’ Jack Flash” today in 1968. “Mick and I had been up all night,” said Keith. “It was raining .. there was the sound of these boots near the window, belonging to my gardener. It woke Mick up. He said, 'What's that?' I said, 'Oh, that's Jack. That's jumping Jack.'” 🎸
