As early as 2021, government officials were alerted to the presence of potentially dangerous chemicals known as PFAS in pants used by wildland firefighters, according to emails obtained by ProPublica.

1/ 3🧵In the beginning it was always the same lazy lullaby:
“The players in the Epstein thing are too big. Too connected. Too powerful. Nobody’s ever getting held accountable.”
Yeah… that era is over.

Do former DOGE employees have the type of access to SSA’s database that wld allow them to make changes? I ask bc there seems to be no transparency, & Trump & Musk now want states to purge voters from the rolls by using the “SAVE” system to compare data in the rolls to the data in SSA’s database. 1/
For nearly a year, the administration has said that DOGE had no unauthorized access to your Social Security data. A new government filing admits that was false.

Trump recently suggested that he is getting ready to issue a new anti-voting executive order. Last time he issued one, we sued and won. If he does it again, we will sue and win. Trump knows this. It is why he and his allies hate and attack me.

One of the most basic tenets of election security is to avoid creating a Single Point of Failure (SPF). Unfortunately, it appears that SCOTUS created a potential SPF by sanctioning DOGE’s access to SSA databases, which are now a key component of Trump’s voter purge election strategy. 1/

Despite having seen countless photos of Delicate Arch, we weren't prepared for its enormity in person. We stood at its base while a kind stranger snapped our photo. It provides some scale for its towering stature.

It feels like a lot of people forget about that prison guard experiment that shows no matter who they are, most men given power over others in cells will blossom into assholes. That's why we need structure and laws and boundaries. ICE has none of that.

Barack Obama almost never jumps into the chaos. The fact that he’s speaking out now — repeatedly and urgently — is a warning. Something is deeply wrong. America needs to listen.
