At this time of trouble for our nation, the words and example of a friend and one of my heroes, John Lewis, are a strong and motivating guide. He shared this in his last essay to the American people, penned just before he passed away:

@jenpsaki.msnbc.com: "Inspectors general are a headache for everyone. You know why? Because they're investigating every agency and they find stuff! Including waste and fraud and abuse! They wouldn't be firing them if they cared about waste, fraud, and abuse."

I don't think the Dems can stop the firings. But why aren't they proposing legislation that assures those that took the buyout get paid , and that all that are fired, get at least a year severance and health benefits? And any one with a health condition is covered the entire time they are sick?

Fancy Pants thinks he’s too good for Boeing Air Force One planes. Probably wants Musk to custom make him one, since we will all be paying for it with the money we save on eggs. apple.news/Ay84QyIDfQ3C...

This fired USDA employee from Vermont really captures the stakes of not stopping this ongoing government evisceration: We won't have a functioning society. vtdigger.org/2025/02/18/s...

Collaborators fired at USDA. Program officers fired at NSF. Study sections suspended indefinitely at NIH (also firings). It's impossible to just keep your head down and do the work, as the work and the people are vanishing in front of us. 🧪

Why does this sound like 2018 all over again? When F47 closed the NSC global health unit, right before Covid-19 hit. Now we have the same thing happening: cuts at CDC, NIH, FDA, USDA, and with H5N1, there will be no agency ready or prepared to help. #ProudBlue

It really is pathetic that the President of the United States and the richest man in the world are doing a joint interview together on how they’re running the country.

Marco Rubio's collaboration with Russia's Sergei Lavrov and Putin is one of the most disgusting acts of betrayal to democracy and our nation. Rubio has secured his place in history of infamy.

The European Union is preparing to announce a historic €700 billion aid package for Ukraine. The project was top secret but "accidently let out" after the US visit to EU. This is unprecedented in scale and declaws Trump & Putin's plot to force Ukraine to surrender to plunder it for its resources.🧵

The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes. The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds. This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen
