There is a massive walk out at the CDC by staff unfolding right now. It is NECESSARY. I stand in solidarity with my CDC colleagues. standing up for science and public health. It is a moral imperative.

The White House fired the Center for Disease Control Director because she refused to go along with RFK Jr.’s unscientific directives.

More top CDC officials have now stepped down amid the chaos.

Vaccines and science save lives. This Admin must stop politicizing public health.

New: In 7 months, Kennedy has broken the CDC, perhaps irreparably. For all he’s done with mass firings, gutting expertise, and attacking vaccines, Wednesday’s loss of its most senior and competent leaders—truly the CDC’s backbone—is the most consequential attack yet.

When scholars of authoritarianism and fascism leave U.S. universities because of the deteriorating political situation here, we should really worry.

Let's see how many wealthy Paul Weiss partners have as much courage as this one associate.
Tonight, hours after the Paul Weiss news broke, an associate at Skadden Arps sent a firm-wide email:

"Please consider this email my two week notice, revocable if the firm comes up with a satisfactory response to the current moment...We do not have time. It is now or it is never..."

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Now of all times Susan Collins picks to support Tulsi Gabbard, an unfit and dangerous nominee. Collins is the worst judge of character and ability I have ever witnessed. Everyone from Kavanaugh to Gabbard gets her ok. Maine- kick her out in 2026

Senator Bill #Cassidy owns this nomination now. As a physician he broke his oath to do no harm, his duty to serve the citizens of his state and this country. Every #measles case, every #mumps case, every #pertussis case is Senator Cassidy's now. This is his legacy of cowardice.

RFK Jr. is a danger to public health. Every Republican senator who votes yes will own the consequences.

When RFK Jr. follows anti-vax conspiracies instead of science, when he greenlights Trump's anti-abortion agenda, when he cuts healthcare for seniors — remember who voted yes.

Cassidy violated his oath: First, do no harm. RFK Jr. snowed him on his dangerous and longstanding vaccine opposition. Cassidy knows this. He chickened out. Sad.
