The CDC is now the CDC in name only. Along with staff cuts, RFK Jr has made it difficult for scientists to do their jobs, including response to outbreaks such as measles and Ebola. Twenty political appointees now direct staff to spend time and $$ on dubious hypotheses. 🧪 archive.today/r38pw

Trump says a war is not a war, therefore the War Powers Act doesn’t apply. Trump says political ads are not ads they are “public service announcements,” therefore the laws banning the use of taxpayer $ don’t apply. The gangster govt changes the meaning of words to avoid the law

So what if you just want to serve your country in the military now and don’t want Christian nationalism shoved down your throat and pushed on you by military leadership? I guess you are out of luck. Because that was our military for the entire history of the country until now.

Today, Russia struck a school in Kyiv with a drone during the morning hours. At the time of the strike, about 100 schoolchildren and 60 staff members were in the shelter; fortunately, no one was hurt. Who does that? What kind of barbarians attack children on a school day?

They took away Medicaid from my 82 year old mom. They don't answer the phone and when she showed up in person, they refused to talk to her and told her to go home and call them. She got her low income senior housing because she qualified for Medicaid.

📌REMINDER: 1. Donald Trump violently attacked the country on Jan. 6, 2021, while trying to overthrow the election. 2. He then retired to his dining room to root on the attack for three hours. 3. When it failed, he went on camera, and told the attackers that he "loved them." He's a damn traitor.

On Tuesday, the full D.C. Circuit will hear arguments in a case that began on a Saturday evening in March 2025, when a federal judge ordered two planeloads of Venezuelan men returned to the United States and the administration, hours later, transported them to a prison in El Salvador instead.
