Trump’s HHS put me on “non-disciplinary” admin leave today. This was retaliation for speaking up. Moves like this are designed to silence us. Let’s not let.

That means new public health experts could lose access to key higher ed resources, like loan limits & reimbursement.

This is far worse than anyone expected.

Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.

All as mass internment camps are being built.

In case anyone's wondering: National Endowment for the Humanities staff, 70% of whom were terminated this summer, are not included in the concessions for reopening the government. Only RIFs that occurred during the shutdown will be reversed.

We're still fired. And it's still wrong. #NEH
The RIF parts are good for federal workers. But they concede a lot.

Thing is, the RIFs all year were lawless. There are complex procedures to follow to use RIFs to fire people. It is clear those procedures were NOT followed. A lower court strongly ruled the RIFs were illegal. And SCOTUS dodged. 1/
The only exception to that is with respect to reductions in force (RIFs). The bill appears to both roll back RIFs announced during the shutdown and prevent any further RIFs between now and Jan 30.
