WOW
CDC source:
“We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff.
They are calling this ‘Phase 1’.”
Even more ways to find “deleted” websites? Always good in my book
Y'all pick a lane. Then make a little progress in your lane each day.
Every serious, experienced organizer I know is Doing Their Thing. Instead of freaking out about each bit of bad news, we're in our lanes rapidly building dual power infrastructure and networks that don't rely on the goverment.
The crowd outside of the Dept. of Labor is growing as union leaders and members of Congress make their way to DOL ahead of Musk team’s planned arrival. Already hearing that Musk & co. may have cancelled the trip.
A memo listing all of the clubs eliminated by USMA.
The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.
Now the whole country gets the experience of what it's like when private equity buys the place you work
Tell me who owns the NYT again? Shameful!
News from @stephenneukam.bsky.social: Senate Democrats will hold the Senate floor for the full 30 hours of debate over Russ Vought’s nomination. They’ll hold the floor Wednesday evening into Thursday morning.
You did this, y’all.
We were just told that they won’t let us in. They are denying entry to 2 dozen members of Congress. Elon Musk has all our private information & we have no idea what he’s doing with it. This is happening completely behind closed doors. HELL NO. It’s illegal. We demand oversight!
Sounds suspiciously what led to a united healthcare ceo did
Fb posts are all out of timestamp and not recent. Yes, it could be a new algorithm. Including one meant to disrupt discussion. 🫥
I’d totally be reporting my coworkers, but like as Baba Yaga
“Oh, yeah, Russian agent, female, works with agriculture agencies. Lives in a hut with hen’s legs”
America, you broke through—the media, from small outlets to large, is finally picking up on what’s happening. Legislators, judges, and attorneys general across the country are speaking out. They hear you. We love you and are honored to serve you! 🦬💚🇺🇸
It is our honor to serve you. America, you broke through— the media is finally picking up on what’s happening. We love you!! 🦬 💚 🇺🇸
When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.
Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.
Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

Here I was just thinking we weren’t going to see our tax refunds this year.
“It’s complicated therefore it MUST be needlessly complicated!” I have eyeball sprains from how hard they’re rolling.
Seems like we all agree RFK Jr. cannot be the next Secretary of Health and Human Services.

We are deeply concerned about the current state of our country. As civil servants, we are doing everything in our power to resist, even if it costs us our jobs. We are proud to be Americans, but what is happening right now does not reflect the values we, as Americans, stand for!
Off to find this book locally….
Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.
So State Dept issued "stop-work" order on all these life-saving foreign assistance programs around the world before thinking it through? And now issues walk-back 4 days later after public (and private) outcry.⬇️
There's also a lot still missing here and presumably subject to the stop work order.
My firm is willing to represent pro bono those fired in this unlawful and vindictive purge. These dedicated civil servants were performing their jobs and upholding the rule of law.
