This conspiracy nonsense is so dangerous. And it literally all traces back to 2 things: 1) political revenge against Fauci for hurting Trump’s reelection chances by disagreeing with his spring 2020 reopening push. 2) a desire to destroy public health bc it is economically disruptive.

This belief led one public health professional to support mental health at HBCUs, where students shared the importance of spaces reflecting their culture, experiences, & identity. Public health is more than programs & policies. It is creating opportunities for everyone. #PublicHealthIsAHumanRight

Really important article from @drjudystone.bsky.social, describing some of the very serious problems with the proposed OMB rule that would put political appointees in charge of federal grant funding.

How The OMB Rule Could Hurt You And Your Town
The OMB proposal threatens scientific research and ALL federal funding for states, cities, and nonprofits. It politicizes ALL funding. Call your reps and write an objection.

Emergency protest happening now outside Columbia University after ICE agents used a “bogus missing persons flyer for a 5-year old girl” to gain access to a school-owned residence to detain a student. That student posted to her instagram this morning: “DHS illegally arrested me. Please help.”

During the marathon campaign rally that Trump called his SOTU speech, he "unveiled" a proposal for the federal government to provide matching contributions of up to $1,000 per year to the retirement accounts of low-wage earners. It's a great idea. It is also already a law signed by Biden in 2022.

Trump has been declaring that America is in a constant state of emergency for the past year. Funny how he couldn't be bothered explaining these critical national emergencies when he reported on the state of the union yesterday. Bit of an omission there, Donnie.
