instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

Just read that CDC has shuttered the unit focused on STDs. Maybe we won’t need to execute the 25th or a cheeseburger.

Having learned from that process, odds are Trump will try to privatize Social Security within the year.

And he may well get away with it, unless we can wake up enough people to this coming scam and put enough political pressure—particularly on Republicans—to prevent it from happening.
Trump and Musk’s Plan to Destroy Social Security Started Tuesday Night
It starts with cutting staff at the Social Security Administration. That will sow confusion. Then it builds from there.

Listening to the Trump press conference. He sounds like a total petulant idiot.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID.

This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC.

What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.
Elon Musk: "We will make mistakes. We won't be perfect ... so for example, with USAID, one of the things we accidentally canceled very briefly was ebola prevention."

To be clear: the United States Government deployed this family to a country with substandard healthcare with the promise that help would be on the way if they ever needed it.

Now, Donald Trump twice denied this woman a potentially life-saving, embassy-requested medevac.
JUST IN: Another medical horror story in an affidavit from a USAID employee stationed overseas. Says his pregnant wife was not medevac-ed for emergency health care because of directives from DC. Took intervention of a U.S. senator to reverse — but was too late. s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has returned from a trip to El Salvador where he secured an agreement from that country's president to accept deportees from the U.S. of any nationality — including American citizens — offering to hold them in the country's sprawling maximum-security facility…

The Trump’s campaign promise was to finish the job they started on Jan 6 and this is what it looks like.

@markwarner.bsky.social I am your constituent. I’m amazed that you are acting as if these are normal times. Musk & his minions have taken over the Treasury payment system, giving them access to private & highly consequential info. All systems are red; it’s time to fight with more than just words!
