Their decisions are going to kill people.
"Angry, disappointed, frustrated"--Scientists were making progress on vaccines and antivirals for the next pandemic--until this week, when the Trump administration abruptly told them to stop. Here's my story with @apoorvanyt.bsky.social Gift link: nyti.ms/43Xz77q
H.H.S. Scraps Studies of Vaccines and Treatments for Future Pandemics (Gift Article)
Federal officials cited the end of the Covid-19 pandemic in halting the research. But much of the work was focused on preventing outbreaks of other pathogens.

The next time you hear Republicans mention tax cuts, ask yourself: For who?

Because unless you’re in the top 5%, it’s probably not you.

Research has shown that the human brain (at least the pre-frontal cortex-the judgement and decision making part of our brain) does not fully develop until around the age of 25. An even more scary thought to consider given the youth of the DOGE team. IQ does not equal judgement.

USAID was founded by JFK to fight the Kremlin -- by helping countries all over the world, rather than having them fall under Soviet dominance.

The Kremlin has wanted to kill USAID ever since.

Don't fall for anti-USAID propaganda -- it all comes from PUTIN.

The Trump Administration’s hiring freeze has led the National Parks Service to cancel job offers for seasonal employees. We are concerned this could leave our parks understaffed during the busy summer season, which sees over 100 million visitors annually.

Besides the misspelling, why is TRUTH in all caps? And why is it Trump's truth? Pretty sure there should be a department in charge of this, not our "king" - oops, I mean "president".
According to the official statement from the White House, the President has announced sanctions on a university in New York City, not a South American country.

It’s “Colombia”, you national embarrassments.

I have received so many notices about data breaches in the past several years that it is hard to even get excited about it anymore. So, yep, froze credit.
Some data breaches include novel information about us, are the result of particularly noteworthy security flaws, or are just so massive they’re impossible to ignore. Here’s EFF’s list of some of the most egregious data breaches of 2024.

Privacy isn’t dead. While some information about you is almost certainly out there, that’s no reason for despair. In fact, it’s a good reason to take action.
