I popped back in here after many months … just to be reminded of why I left. It's been real, folks! Idk how anyone can stand social media anymore at all.

THIS IS TERRIFYING‼️ Dr. Peter Marks, former head of vaccines at the FDA, just had his last day—forced to resign or be fired because he wouldn’t lie about vaccines. He gives a chilling warning: the U.S. is unprepared for biowarfare—because the response team has been gutted.

I won't be out marching tomorrow (for health reasons) but I made this donation, and I'm hoping to make a couple of others in the morning. There are so many ways to show up! ✊🏻

I've heard several people describe the market response as a panic. I don't actually view it that way. It seems like a rational response to a completely irrational policy. - Charlotte Howard, Executive Editor of The Economist

The Dow is again down more than 2,000 pts, or 5%, with an hour left to go in the trading day. The Trump people and industry heads on Bloomberg are twisting logic to an amazing degree to try and make it sound not disastrous.

What kind of person does this and why kind of people enable it? That’s the question- and the answer is clear: cognitively impaired, w/severe personality disorders, such that they do inhabit reality if America isn’t calling their representatives tomorrow they are toast. Every single American-call.

@schumer.senate.gov Please listen. You have done so much good work in your tenure, but right now you are missing the mark terribly. You must stop thinking about the midterms entirely & show us that you understand this moment. So far, you're falling. Terribly. We are begging you to hear us!

Speaker @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social interview with @maddow.msnbc.com last night was infuriating. She tried repeatedly to point out that the current threats and actions by Trump & Musk are far outside the scope of procedure and require a response to match. Yet he could not reply with any… 1/4

I've been almost entirely focused on the dismantling of the U.S. emergency management system but SUPER important to understand they're also dismantling significant parts of the systems everyone uses to manage disasters globally.
