Happy Friday everyone. Thanks for reading NPR.org this week.

Wanted to take a second to also remind you: I interviewed whistleblower Dan Berulis to accompany my lengthy written story on NLRB. Hear from him in his own words:

🧵 THREAD: A federal whistleblower just dropped one of the most disturbing cybersecurity disclosures I’ve ever read.

He's saying DOGE came in, data went out, and Russians started attempting logins with new valid DOGE passwords

Media's coverage wasn't detailed enough so I dug into his testimony:

These are MAGA's concentration camps. Do not look away. #CECOT where Trump is forcibly and illegally sending people with no criminal record or due process after abducting them from the streets of this country. All are being held indefinitely without charges.
Wake up.

From the.wellness.therapist Fun fact: There are more people with measles in Texas than there are transgender athletes in the entire nation. Yet the same people fueling panic over trans kids in sports stay silent on an actual public health crisis...It’s not about fairness or safety.

Greg Abbott admitted he’s trying to defund our schools with a private school voucher. If his voucher passes, Texas public schools will face more closures, teacher layoffs, and program cuts. See how much money Abbott could take from YOUR public school: dontdefundmyschool.com

Trump just revoked the Equal Employment Opportunity executive order of 1965, rolling back 60 years of progress on civil rights.

The order had prohibited employment discrimination in federal hiring based on race, religion, and gender.

52 years ago, Roe v. Wade secured the reproductive rights women fought for. In 2022, Dobbs overturned it & 22 states restricted our freedoms.

2 days ago, Trump took down reproductiverights.gov. But @reprocaucus.bsky.social will continue to share abortion resources. Your body, your choice!

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.
