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.

Elon Musk's DOGE now has access to your personal Social Security data. There is no way to overstate how serious a breach this is.

"Trump owns this, Elon owns this, and all of those spineless GOP Senators who greenlit Sean Duffy own this... We can barely go a day without a plane crashing. Maybe next time these Republicans should disconnect their lips from Trump’s ass and focus on the people they’re supposed to be representing."

This is what our Transportation Secretary was doing yesterday as planes are crashing on a near-daily basis. I cannot remember a more dangerous time to fly and yet this reality TV actor-turned-Cabinet Secretary is busy watching cars drive laps at the Daytona 500.

Don’t discount the power of small acts of resistance - and get a laugh out of these snarky resisters! DOGE is hiring. The response did not disappoint. wagingnonviolence.org/2025/02/doge...
