Abolishing independent agencies for partisan political aims is a big mistake. Consumers and kids will get hurt.

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 11/07/2025

The Acting Chair’s delay on the Button Batteries Final Rule doesn’t just endanger children, it disrespects the parents and advocates who fought to make it happen.

Real leaders listen to the needs of those they serve. @cpsc.gov does this during our annual priorities hearing. Why did the CPSC’s acting chair cancel it for the second time? www.cpsc.gov/About-CPSC/C...

Why Is the Acting Chair Afraid to Hear From Consumers?

Thank you to @trumkacpsc.bsky.social, @hoehnsariccpsc.bsky.social, and Mary Boyle, the Consumer Product Safety Commissioners who were illegally fired, for speaking out against the dismantling of this lifesaving agency. Hear more about the important work of the CPSC:

First, @cpsc.gov Commissioners Hoehn-Saric, Trumka, and Boyle were unlawfully fired. Now, their X accounts have been deleted. Product safety should save lives. Not play politics. Not hide the truth. @consumerfed.bsky.social

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 19/05/2025

We were created to keep the public safe. Now, the 2 Commissioners left at @cpsc.gov are doing the exact opposite.

Commissioner Richard Trumka Jr. @trumkacpsc.bsky.social · 19/05/2025

They deleted my X account for speaking out against the illegal firings and for telling the truth about what’s happening inside of government. If they can censor me, they can censor you too. Follow @RichTrumkaJr on X and @Trumkacpsc everywhere else.

Today SHOULD have been our priorities hearing—the day when YOU get to tell us what we should be focusing on as an agency. Instead, shortly after we were illegally fired, that hearing was canceled. Silencing the public’s voice in the government is an attack we cannot take lying down.

Myth: "They wouldn't sell it if it wasn't safe." Fact: @cpsc.gov recalled over 150 million products last year for serious hazards. Just because you can buy it off store shelves does NOT mean that it's been tested for safety. Let's break it down: 🧵⬇️

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.
