Just confirmed this with my source: They were told the entirety of cdc.gov is going down imminently and to backup what they need.
All I can really say at this point is if everyone isn't watching how trans people have lost basic rights and protections on a scale that hasn't been seen in decades in the span of 72 hours and realizing that even if you aren't trans there's nothing stopping it from happening to you, you're a fool
I'm strongly supporting Rep. Gerry Connolly's Saving the Civil Service Act to protect the people against Trump's hostile takeover of our civil service.
Democracy can’t work without a civil service which operates on the basis of merit, not partisan control for private plunder.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s nomination as HHS Secretary signals a new era of anti-intellectualism in American politics, with both Trump and Kennedy casting doubt on vaccine safety and the medical establishment, and on experts in general. https://buff.ly/40QEKlU 🧪🩺

Executive order title adjusted to read: "Attacking women, trans folks, and anyone who can get pregnant and restoring control of people's bodies & reproduction to the federal government." Executive Order, January 20, 2025
Executive order language: (d) “Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell. (e) “Male” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell. Why include conception? It’s strategic. This is a chance to establish that fertilized eggs, embryos, and fetuses are people. What does that mean? If fetuses are people, there is a direct conflict between the rights of pregnant people and “unborn children.” It’s a way to impose government control over people’s bodies. Why does it matter? Fetal personhood leads to people being criminalized for actions during pregnancy, forced medical interventions during pregnancy, threats to IVF, abortion, and denying life-saving health care all to protect “fetal life.”
We knew they would take every opportunity to establish fetal personhood, and this is the first.
An executive order attacking trans and nonbinary people is also an attack against pregnant people.
This is more prevalent than ever that we never forget the horrors the Nazis caused to others.
