Also if you feel strongly about Eric Adams, you should call your city councilmember to express that and ask for their position. You’d be surprised. Hochul’s stance is highly disappointing but it doesn’t come from nowhere. Press all your electeds. City elections are in 5 months. Ask candidates too.

The Trump administration has halted a federal scholarship for HBCU students. "The 1890 Scholars Program has been suspended pending further review," a notice on the government's website said. www.livemint.com/news/us-news...

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court GRANTS sweeping nationwide injunction against Trump DEI executive orders finding that they violate First and Fifth Amendments to the Constitution. A huge victory for @democracyforward.org and its clients. A stinging loss for Trump. Visit www.democracydocket.com for details.

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

This will be devastating to the disability community Telehealth was a game changer for us. It was something people had begged to access for years, because healthcare settings are so inaccessible. Remote medicine allows us to save money, spoons and avoid hospital acquired infections.

I keep saying that he is NOT popular. I'll add that some of these polls show him underwater on the economy which even when he was at his lowest in the first term folks who were Apprentice pilled still gave him good marks on the economy.

The job market has never been better for shills, stooges, and toadies of all stripes. Linkedin absolutely buzzing if you're a sycophant, a flunky, or even an unctuous little worm

NEW: Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%. https://propub.li/43487Tj

Breaking: The Federalist Society quickly reboots as the Royalist Society.

I am not kidding when I say Madison intended impeachment to be used on the first, next, and last President who referred to themselves as a king, and we ought to do him right

As Donald Trump attempts to consolidate power within the executive branch, his declarations of despotism are becoming increasingly explicit.

This is a concentration camp. They are describing a concentration camp.

I suspect we’re going to be hearing more stories about failing farmers having their land bought for cheep—it’s not a coincidence. Is this why USAID was cut—to make way for billionaires?! Watch til the end and keep an eye on national parklands too. 🧵

Firings are happening right now at the National Science Foundation. Essential staff are being cut. This isn’t about the budget. If it was, they’d be going after the military (17%) or state appropriations (38%). NSF is 0.7% of the federal budget. All federal employees make up only 4% of the budget.

This so disheartening. We rely on the CDC for so many things the general public isn't even aware of. As an ID doc when we encounter or suspect rare pathogens we can sometimes only get diagnostic testing from the CDC. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Bright passionate people who wanted to dedicate their lives to public service were fired in a mass email over the holiday weekend. This has absolutely nothing to do with efficiency, fraud, waste, or abuse. And your life will be worse because of it.

I feel pretty strongly that if you're warming up to the idea of forcibly annexing an ally because you think it'll net your party more seats in congress, you should be barred from ever talking about American politics again

I'm starting to think we need to be talking to local and state officials about having emergency foreclosure and eviction moratoriums ready to go. If (when) they move on the FDIC, I think we are looking at mass bankruptcy and a big residential property land grab by the oligarchs.

🚨Elon Musk’s DOGE operatives are attempting to access confidential tax information — tax returns, bank data, Social Security numbers — for millions of Americans. Illegal access can lead to jail time under federal law. @wyden.senate.gov and I are investigating and fighting back.

The employee is Gavin Kliger. He’s been named by multiple large news orgs. Not sure why NBC won’t.

We need to stop blaming people for their disabilities. Health is not a permanent state. Most people will experience disability at some point in their lives. We’re not less than. We didn’t do anything wrong. We deserve equitable, dignified and adequate support.

This commission statement refers to people with Autism, ADHD, asthma, auto-immune disease, and chronic illness as a “dire threat to the American people and our way of life”. This is a manifesto against disability. This is the language of eugenics.

what the fuck do these people know about ATC? what the fuck are they going to do to it? this really truly was not broken - we needed MORE air traffic controllers but the DC crash was the biggest such crash since 2001 instead they're firing all the probationary employees and whatever this is

I love to joke about OSHA (and NIOSH) but every single OSHA regulation was written with someone’s blood

How was this contract awarded??!
