I sobbed while listening to this 6th generation Arkansas family farmer. I come from a family who started farming AR in 1868, so this hits hard. As she said, “I don’t care if you have an R or a D next to your name…” please listen. #SheShed

This might help explain why some Republicans are afraid of standing up. Problem is, what’s coming is much, much worse than intimidation and threats. Think: Alexei Nalvany. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Whatever you do, please don't email HR@OPM.gov and send a bunch of emails! This is the email address from which came the order to federal employees to list five things they "got done" last week. My response?

One possible “missed opportunity” is #PEPFAR’s agreement to distribute #lenacapavir, a twice-yearly shot for #HIV prevention expected to be #FDA approved soon. “If there's no HIV prevention happening, then there's no implementation of a supply agreement.” positivelyaware.com/pepfar-jirai...

SHARE WIDELY. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights. You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one. (1/3)

RESIST. Don't quit. Don't stop fighting. Don't obey in advance. Don't stop calling them out. Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can. Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone. Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight. RESIST.

First impression: professional organizations in biomedical research, public health and healthcare are treading carefully with the RFK Jr. nomination and it does not bode well for the courage we'll need to stem the damage this administration will do.

If you are LGBTQ or an ally and not ready to start working to protect and secure our rights, get out of the way of those of us who are. We have no time to waste. We are under legislative attack.

Q: What happens when you overpay for a social media platform, drive away most of your advertisers, alienate half its users, making it worth less than a third of what you paid for it within a year? A: You get put in charge of government efficiency.
