20 ARMED men bust into your home. They claim they’ve got a search warrant.

They make you stand in the rain w/your 3 daughters in their underwear.

They seize your phones, laptops, your cash life savings.

The suspects listed on the warrant? They don’t live there anymore.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

Trump tells his followers to buy stock in the morning, minutes after the market opens, then announces he is pausing tariffs 4 hours later.

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

So.

It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year.

I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Trump is an extremely dangerous man--stupid, vindictive, fixated on payback for his enemies. This country will be lucky to survive him.

This is why DEI is necessary, otherwise white men will only hire young inexperienced white blond women they want to bang rather than someone who is actually qualified to do the job.

Trump didn’t choose RFK Jr because he thought he was the best person for the job, as RFK keeps saying today. Trump trashed him repeatedly last year. But Trump’s internal polling showed he needed RFK’s voters to win. That is the sole reason he picked him - politics, not health.

Look, all I'm saying here is that a guy who has obviously chosen to absorb as many UV rays as RFK Jr has, can't possibly be all that serious about health.

When I was growing up, there were ashtrays everywhere. Every house, every business, the doctor's office, not outside, inside on every table. A battered metal bowl, coated in toxic resin, overflowing with spit stained damp butts and foul ash, stinking of cancer.

That's what RFK Jr reminds me of.

The president of the United States is pulling security from former government employees whom the intelligence community believes are under threat of assassination by a hostile state. And his explanation is to smirk, “I mean, there’s risks to everything.”
Gangster’s Paradise
Appearing with alleged gang members. Freeing hundreds of violent felons. Declaring open season on former government employees who are targeted by terrorists. How do you think this ends?

Can the two minority leaders hire … _somebody_ — Ian Sams, Kate Bedingfield, Brian Fallon, whatever — to run a comms war room already? I get that consensus-building takes work, but there are aspects of public communication that members can delegate.
If Democrats were a competent opposition party, they would have been prepared for this. They would have elected officials in front of cameras with seniors who rely on Meals on Wheels or vets who can't get a VA appointment or any of the myriad Americans whose lives are being upended by this chaos.
Meals on Wheels America spox on OMB pause:

"the uncertainty right now is creating chaos for local Meals on Wheels providers not knowing whether they should be serving meals today. Which unfortunately means seniors will panic not knowing where their next meals will come from."
