JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.

While the U.S. Department of Defense ignores #BlackHistoryMonth, Kentucky does not. Democrats and Republicans came together to honor the many African American leaders from the past and present who have worked to build a better world for our people. (1/2)

Sadly, Kentucky has had the first death of a child to the flu this season. My heart breaks for this family. Let’s do everything we can to stay healthy - vaccines are the best way to protect yourself and your children.

Good: CDC’s outbreak publication (MMWR) is now up and running after the first pause in over 70 years

Bad: Todays publication is about fires, and not the missing bird flu or mpox studies we knew were up for publication. Of which have safety implications for veterinarians and people with house cats

CDC Posts, Then Deletes, Data on Bird Flu Spread Between Cats and People

The data, which appeared fleetingly online on Wednesday, confirmed transmission in two households. Scientists called on the agency to release the full report.

Thank you! A federal judge blocked U.S. DOGE employees from altering any records of payments at the Treasury Department while she weighs a request by public interest groups for a broader injunction against their activity. Thank you, U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly’s! 🙏

THIS IS IT. The special general elections for Florida’s 1st & 6th Congressional Districts are on APRIL 1, 2025. If we flip these seats, we can STOP Project 2025. No excuses! Mark your calendars! Show up!

BREAKING: President Trump has withdrawn the U.S. from the United Nations Human Rights Council.

This move will erode efforts to protect universal human rights and undermine the work of international bodies that hold all governments accountable.

So when exactly do the ‘checks’ and ‘balances’ part kick in?

Or is that just a fun little slogan like

Imagine saying this about an agency that has helped millions of people around the world avoid malaria, obtain clean water, and gain access to food & health care. Especially when you’re the world’s richest man & your net worth is something like 20 times this agency’s annual budget. What a foul soul.

If the Treasury Secretary does not remove DOGE’s access to the Treasury payment systems at once:

Congress must immediately act.

That is why Rep. Jeffries and I will work together on legislation to stop unlawful meddling in the Treasury Department’s payment systems.

It is absolutely unacceptable for the Trump administration to purge the CDC of important scientific data that matters to millions of people. I refuse to let ideologues stomp out evidence-based objective research—we all need to speak out. www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...
CDC Data Are Disappearing
The agency has already removed scientific data from public view. More could follow.

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...
