Last night, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. abruptly dismissed all 17 members of the federal vaccine advisory committee. “It’s a massive story in terms of the implications of where this may be going,” Jack Blanchard says on #playbookpod, “Everyone knows RFK Jr.’s stance on vaccines.” 🎧 ow.ly/GJCP50W6UzG

Let this sink in. Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence. During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”

Hurricane season starts June 1 and if you live in a Gulf state, you need to watch this. It’s worse than you might think. The few employees still left at FEMA admit: they are not prepared. Not enough staff. Not enough supplies. Not enough leadership. Plan accordingly.

Sometimes you just have to ask—why? The Senate voted to strike down a rule capping most bank overdraft fees at $5, a measure introduced by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that was expected to save Americans billions each year.

The ambush and arrest of Rumeysa Ozturk is something out of a dictatorship. Rumeysa is here legally and has not been charged with a crime. The Trump Administration is sending a message that free speech is not protected in their regime. She must be returned to Massachusetts.

A professor of environmental sciences gives a quick punchy take on the "eye-popping" numbers re. how clean air promotes economic growth. An EPA analysis of 20 years of the Clean Air Act (1970-90) found the economic benefits of the regulations were about 42X greater than the costs. No pay wall.

Clean air has become one of America’s best investments, returning $10 for every $1 spent on regulations, by one estimate.

18F, the federal government’s technology shop, was demolished by Musk’s team shortly after midnight. It was a cost-recoverable org, charging agencies for their expertise, using a consulting model. Its cost to government was negligible, its benefits huge. My team there once saved DoD $500 billion.

As the Trump administration announced mass terminations at dozens of National Weather Services offices across the country this week, current and former staffers said an exodus of new hires and veterans will hinder the agency’s ability to predict weather hazards.

Trump fired hundreds at NOAA, Weather Service. Here’s what that means for forecasts.
Current and former agency officials and lawmakers said the cuts could have major impacts on Americans and the economy, compromising important functions.

The Trump administration is demanding the home addresses of 700,000 people suspected of being in the country illegally from the IRS. The IRS is resisting this request, as complying would directly violate federal tax privacy laws.

Red states-pay attention, because you’ll get hit hardest! They’re gutting NOAA to privatize weather forecasting. Knowledge is power—forecasting is knowledge. Fossil fuel execs rake in billions while the planet chokes—folks keep guzzling gas & won’t notice the climate crisis while the world burns.
