I really think that Dems should demand firing RFK Jr. as a condition to fund the government
his negative value over replacement cabinet member is undoubtedly the highest in the administration

We are Through the Looking Glass now. Ladapo is barking mad, and I mean actually deranged. And please stop calling him a skeptic. He’s a full out anti-vaxxer and denialist. This only ends badly not just for Florida, but for the entire country. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Parents: if no one has told you this yet and it's not too late:
DO NOT PLAN TO GO OUT FOR A FUN DINNER ON THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. These kids are gonna be tired, grumpy, and disregulated. For at least a week. Plan comfort foods and chill evenings accordingly.

NEVER FORGET: If you have been having issues accessing their Social Security accounts. INSTEAD of going to a branch which may be hundreds or 1Ks+ of miles away from you, call your members of Congress. They have constituent services that will help you regain access. Please share!

There is currently an NWS flash flood warning in effect for all five boroughs of NYC.
But no City agency has posted it on this platform.
Please help spread the word.
“If you live in a basement apartment or low-lying area, be ready to move to higher ground.”

Serious question @repmoskowitz.bsky.social , did anyone die because of @KristiNoem failure? Will that be investigated? It is beginning to seem that this was preventable. It also seems, based upon what is happening, that the next one is foreseeable. I hope you get to the bottom of this.
As a former emergency management director, I’ve been alarmed by how Sec. Noem has handled the tragic flooding in Texas.
I’m calling for an investigation into reports of FEMA’s delayed response. Congress has to get answers, strengthen emergency management, and protect the public.

Thank you @idsainfo.bsky.social , @ameracadpeds.bsky.social and the other professional societies that have stood up to confront the absurd and deadly anti-vaxx views of #RFKJr and his co-conspirators, #MartyMakary, #VinayPrasad and #JayBhattacharya.
BREAKING: Six leading medical organizations filed a lawsuit on Monday against Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the health secretary, and the health dept, charging that recent decisions limiting access to vaccines were unscientific and harmful to the public.
