This news truly breaks my heart. We are calling on HHS to take immediate action. Secretary Kennedy needs to bring back weekly measles tracking from the CDC, rehire the health experts, and roll out a serious vaccine campaign. Our kids' safety is on the line! abcnews.go.com/Health/1st-m...

Always wondered how the Star Wars Emperor could start with a battle-hardened army and end up with an "entire legion of his best troops" being beaten to death by teddybears with sticks. Then Hegseth ended up as US Defence Sec. And now yeah that makes sense.

Hi, it's me again. THIS IS A COUP. AN ACTUAL COUP. Not a drill, not a test, just a COUP. We are experiencing a coup in the United States, and the fact that we're not acting like that's an emergency is a problem. IT IS DAY 38 OF THIS COUP.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

1. Today, the NYT has reported that 100 members of an ERG-adjacent LGBTQ+ chat in the intelligence community have been fired. This is a new McCarthyism, a new lavender scare meant to remove LGBTQ+ in government, and the way this was done should shake us all. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Oh fuck, what a grift. J6 terrorists sue a DOJ controlled by Trump; Trump orders DOJ lawyers to settle for an undisclosed amount, both sides agree to an NDA. This can happen dozens, hundreds of times. Just an ingenious way to funnel tax dollars to far-right terrorist groups.

Again, any time a Republican says we have to slash Medicaid to fix the deficit, they need to be asked why we shouldn’t just increase taxes on the rich. It’s a zero sum game. Make them defend giving more money to billionaires over keeping ordinary people healthy.

House Rs just passed the budget resolution, the first step in their process to enact a bill that'd kick millions off Medicaid & cut SNAP down to just $1.60 per person per meal on avg while cutting taxes for the top 0.1% by $278k - all while increasing the debt 🧵on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT

Republicans just voted to take your money and give it to billionaires. It’s not enough that House Republicans are enabling Trump and Elon Musk’s outrageous power grab. Now they’re selling out everyday Americans so that Trump, Musk, and their billionaire allies can get even richer.

Some “moderate” Republicans flipped & ended up supporting this evil budget resolution. They voted to cut Medicaid & services their constituents depend on. The budget fight isn’t over. But if you are represented by any of these people that voted yes.. make sure they hear from you.

Senator, welcome to Bluesky. Can you explain why you're sponsoring a bill to repeal Section 230, which would effectively make it impossible for Bluesky to do what it's doing today, creating this kind of space? Thanks. www.techdirt.com/2025/02/21/w...

Called again today. I didn’t just ask my Representative to vote no; I briefly explained exactly how Medicaid cuts would affect me. The staffer was so understanding & I was so grateful for that. They wanted to hear from me. I also thanked them for previously supporting Medicaid. Folks, please call.

1. Protests are happening literally every day these days. Trans rights protests. Protests against Musk. Heck, over a thousand people showed up for a protest at the Treasury. I advise everyone, especially people who don't usually, to find any of them and just go to one. It's important.
