Commerce Department employees caught up in a legal battle over their mass firings are now learning that their health care coverage was cut off weeks ago, even though they were paying their premiums.

Ok so yeah, this has quickly become the #1 misunderstanding about the canceled grants the grants are not “subsidies” or “entitlements” to Harvard or Princeton or whatever they aren’t going into universities’ endowments they are competitive contracts won by these universities to do research

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

Your senators and representative are back home for another congressional recess. We’re organizing hundreds of rallies to turn up the heat on Republicans who are trying to gut Medicaid and SNAP in order to fund tax cuts for billionaires. Join us: indivisible.org/muskorus

The stock market is cratering. The price of goods are already high. This administration is not trying to “liberate” you. They’re leaving the door open for our nation’s largest corporations to make you pay for their mistakes.

Over 600 local events with many more being added every day. In all 50 states and DC, we will demand an end to the most brazen power grab in modern history. We hope to see you in the streets on April 5: handsoff2025.com/?SQ...

The children who will suffer the most if Trump illegally dismantles the Department of Education are the disabled. They are at so much risk to begin with in this ableist United States, and now any protections they had will be pulled out from under them.

Trump wants to annex Canada because, as a convicted felon, he can’t go there any other way.

DOGE just sacked half of @usedgov’s workforce, including lawyers defending students with disabilities. If these chainsaw massacres are so popular, why don’t they bring them to Congress first? How many cases do they have to lose?

i find this notion that public spending is illegitimate bizarre as a matter of economics but totally legible as a statement of moral economy. and as per any strict system of morality, the punishment is part of the appeal. they are punishing the american people for believing in the public good.

The largest private employer in Baltimore just lost $800 million in federal contracts and grants. This recession is going to be a doozy.

Join us at the US Capitol on Monday afternoon. We will have clever signs and loud voices! Register here: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

I’m absolutely disgusted to hear this. I’m ashamed to have attended the University of Virginia.

Can’t possibly check my retirement account. I would like to sleep tonight.

Maybe instead of purging the Social Security workers who make sure seniors get their checks on time, we should be expanding benefits to make life a little easier for your parents and grandparents.

The FDA just cancelled a meeting to select flu strains for next season's flu shots. "It's unclear what the canceled meeting will mean for Americans who want to get a flu vaccine next season." www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

I’m somehow on a Heritage Foundation mailing list (😂) and they sent a survey to see what we think of DOGE. Who wants to offer some m-fing feedback?!? secured.heritage.org/the-heritage... Please share with a friend or a thousand :)

This is evil. Pure evil.

This is so real. I know so many federal workers and their spirits are so low. Lives are being ruined by the job cuts. So many local economies will be harmed and who knows how many years the recovery will take.

Federal workers choose public service to serve our people, but the Trump administration wants to traumatize them. We need cancer researchers, forest service firefighters, nuclear safety experts, VA nurses and food safety inspectors. We don’t need Elon Musk, whatever his job is.

I’ve attended some small protests recently but I’m surprised not to see a larger scale protest being organized. Is anybody doing that? I’d love to get involved.

hello cis friends this is what people mean by trans genocide if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

I am not making this up: Republicans have introduced legislation… to increase your bank fees.

Marylanders did not elect Elon Musk. An unelected billionaire like Musk should be kept far away from our banking information. He cannot be allowed into this IRS system. abcnews.go.com/Politics/elo...

Black history is only offensive if you side with enslavers, segregationists, and other racists. It slaps if you have morality.

Headed to a protest today? Some information to keep in mind.

Just watched the first episode of @lavernecox.bsky.social’s new sitcom. It’s the most uplifting thing I’ve seen recently. I love how they treated the reunion of an estranged parent and trans child with both humor and kindness.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

This is a dangerous (and deeply embarrassing) moment for our country. Republicans just put a conspiracy theorist in charge of one of the most important federal agencies for safeguarding public health and guiding the nation through health crises.

People have been referring to ‘President Musk’ for at least a week. How is it that Trump hasn’t fallen out with him yet?!

REPORTER: Are you policing yourself for conflicts of interest? What are the checks and balances? MUSK: We post our actions to the DOGE handle on X
