House Republican leadership has advised caucus members to avoid in-person town halls, fearing that voter backlash may become viral if circulated online. 🐔 www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Sure, egg prices are predicted to increase by 40% because of Trump's mishandling of the bird flu epidemic, but imagine how much higher they'd be under Biden's DEI economy.

If you're in the Austin area on Tuesday, this promises to be a great discussion of climate change and environmental reporting with former NYT reporter @revkin.bsky.social. Free food! Y'all come!

I'm a reporter at CNBC.com covering Elon Musk + his cos. We're interested in current or ex-fed employees' experiences w/ "DOGE," your work with (or perhaps investigating) Musk & his companies before 47. EPA, DOT, NASA, FTC, NTSB, SEC, NLRB -- DM me on Signal: lorakolodny.55

Really feeling bullish about this bird flu situation and this administration and its new secretary of health. What could go wrong?

Trump has granted a conflict of interest waiver for Musk. We’re eager to see if the administration will release it in line with their vow of transparency.

This Super Bowl Sunday, here's a reminder of what real courage looks like.

Musk reportedly spent $40M on #Superbowl ads calling #USAID wasteful. Here’s one way they would’ve spent that $$: 🏈Shipped the 29K metric tons of American food on American ships instead of letting it rot in a Texas warehouse. youtu.be/PqUESHfuO_8 #saveforeignaid #standwithUSAID

Musk reportedly spent $40M on #Superbowl ads calling #USAID wasteful. Here’s one way they would’ve spent that $$: 🏈Protected 30M football fields of tropical forest in Africa to stop China from exploiting the minerals that fuel our world youtu.be/PqUESHfuO_8 #saveforeignaid #standwithUSAID

USAID funds critical flood warning systems in Indonesia and the Philippines and the monsoon season is at its peak. The "review" and exemptions that Rubio promised needs to happen now. #USAID #Climate #PublicSafety #EarlyWarning

I miss eggs

Thank you! A U.S. District Judge has approved requests from anonymous federal employees to proceed under pseudonyms in multiple cases against the Trump administration to protect themselves from potential harassment and threats.

So, I am starting my fourth book of 2025, which is a complete shock to my family #NewHabits

Having fun with this project

Gee, it didn’t take Trump very long to blame Biden and DEI for the plane crash. #Leadership

I find it disappointing that the X Games story a local TV news station covered was AI-based judging rather than the fact that humans pulled a 2340 in both snowboarding 🏂 and skiing ⛷️ for the first time ever. 6 and a half freaking rotations 😳

Imagining the smiles of Putin and Xi as Hegseth gets confirmed…

Sending strength and good thoughts to all the FEMA employees out there. Y'all deal with some of the toughest issues and bad situations, and do critical work. I know you got into it to help people. You don't deserve the vitriol and rhetoric attempting to devalue you and your work.

The price of eggs in the US is spiking, mostly due to #H5N1 bird flu. Solving the problem requires urgent, important communications from the CDC & FDA* and rapid development of research by the NIH** * Currently paused by Executive Order ** Grant reviews now all canceled www.kcur.org/news/2025-01...

Just wondering if Hegseth got drunk at the luncheon today.

So do we fly our flags at half-mast or upside down for the next four years? Asking for a friend.

Just me naïvely, thinking I’m gonna run into somebody I know at every corner I come to in San Francisco

Celebrating a great American today, Martin Luther King.
