THERE IT IS—The Atlantic has published the transcript of that SIGNAL conversation chat with the totally “not classified” attack plans that @SecDef Pete Hegseth claimed “Nobody was texting war plans.” What a shameless liar—Hope his kids see thru this. Gift 🎁link:

From an FDA probationary employee: the firings are coming from outside the agency without cause and with zero input from supervisors (as promised.) More firings expected between now and Tuesday. Do not open the termination email before you download your documents and performance evals.

Heya! @schiff.senate.gov, constituent here. Please drop whatever else you are doing and evict Musk and his goons from Treasury IT systems. Our data is not safe in his hands (not to mention this whole thing seems highly illegal).

Something that happened the other day reminded me of a New Yorker essay from 2019, so I reread it, which prompted me to track down a copy of The Third Reich of Dreams by Charlotte Beradt. Astonishing and timely book. It should be more widely read.

Trump has rescinded Biden’s Executive Order 14087, “Lowering Prescription Drug Costs for Americans,” which included things like lowering state Medicaid costs for the most expensive therapeutics, reducing Medicare payments for proven drugs, and creating a flat, $2 Medicare copay for generic drugs
Trump’s initial orders reverse Biden on health care costs, protections from discrimination
Trump's executive orders took aim at Biden's priorities, from drug pricing to gender discrimination.
