“Right now NIH’s ability to buy things is dead. Nearly all people with the power to make an order — purchasing people — have been removed.
The NIH hospital can’t buy medicines, the labs can’t buy petri dishes. X-Ray machine breaks? Too bad.
Everything is stopped”

I agree with the governor. Avoid Kentucky.
High water is impacting roadways across the state, with the majority of closures in Western Kentucky. We need everyone to avoid travel if possible. Let’s do what we can to help our first responders and road crews. Please stay safe everyone.

“Many do not have transportation or they are homebound or in the hospital and don’t have access or simply don’t know how to use the internet... What happens to them? What happens to the person who can’t do it online and now their local office has closed?”

At least 1 NC Social Security office saved from closing. What about the other 3?
DOGE removed three of North Carolina’s four Social Security offices that were set to close from its list of lease terminations. Rep. Chuck Edwards says at least one office is now set to remain open.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.
It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.
They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.
I’m happy to invest and/or help

I don’t even know what to say about this. If this is true, if that data exists, it’s unbelievable and problematic for it not to be shared.
On the other hand, if true, what recommendations would it change? Keep your cats inside. Don’t feed them raw food or milk, and don’t drink raw milk yourself.🧪
