(1/6) Last night, President Trump withdrew his first nomination for Surgeon General and instead nominated Dr. Casey Means. 🧵
So let’s delve into what a Surgeon General is and why it’s important.

This isn't a new product. It's an updated vaccine to account for new strains and viral evolution. Are they going to do this for all COVID and influenza vaccines yearly? Because that effectively shuts them down. There isn't enough time between identification of strains included & release of vaccine.

And the fire department doesn't trust you anymore. Nor do the neighbors.
You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

Dawn Staley is big mad 😳

Also I have to say it: her jacket is terrible. Should have worn the Gucci again.

Incredible. The Trump administration calculated "tariff rates" by taking the US trade deficit with the respective country and dividing it by the country's exports to the US. And then the tariff rate of the US is often just set by cutting that made-up "tariff rate" in half.

How incredibly poignant for @booker.senate.gov to be talking with elegance and fire about the great John Lewis at the time he takes down a racist record.

New — Here is a running list of Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS) offices that have either been fully eliminated or gutted into non-functionality as a result of today's mass firings (provided to me directly by a CDC staffer):

I honestly can’t even believe he’s still coherent 22+ hours in. So wild.
Cory Booker will break the record for longest Senate floor speech at 7:19 PM EDT. Fewer than 2 hours from now. The record is held by Strom Thurmond, who was arguing for segregation. GO CORY, GO!

What @booker.senate.gov is doing is standing up for us. I’m in awe. This is physically and mentally grueling. He (+his team+his peers) came READY and it’s impressive.

And if you want to call it performative but were cheering for AOC and Bernie last week, sit down. You don’t get it and never will.
Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

what booker is doing right now is an example of what i mean when i say things like “we need more ambition right now.” there is room in american politics right now for people with ambition to take big stands and reap the rewards. he’s doing it!

Just learned that the entire division of blood disorders at the CDC was put on administrative leave or terminated effective immediately.

The people who figured out HIV was infecting people through the blood supply.

What could possibly go wrong?

Is it just me or does everyone google tornado watch and tornado warning every time you have either of them because it won’t stay committed to memory?

A friend of my compared gutting of federal agencies to a wrecking a car: if you remove 30% of the parts of the car, it does not go 30% slower. It stops working.
