So.
It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year.
I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

Weak autocracies are far more common than strong autocracies.
They are also often far more dangerous and damaging than strong autocracies.
Never take hope from an autocrat’s weakness. Instead, prepare for the worst.

Read it. The conclusion is that we're not going to stop Trump, and he's not wrong, we're going to survive Trump.
And it's going to be a disaster for our federal government, our economy, our citizens, our military, our intelligence services, the rule of law and on and on. But if we fight, we survive

Fetterman should be named DNC Chair. He’s (in my opinion) 💯% correct. Meanwhile, other names like Rahm Emanuel & Phil Murphy are getting weighed for DNC Chair — I’m sorry, but that to me feels like the same crew of longtime DC insiders who gave us 2016 & 2024. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...
John Fetterman says Democrats need to stop 'freaking out' over everything Trump does
The Pennsylvania senator spoke to NBC News about what went wrong for his party in 2024 and how it should approach the future Trump administration.

A follow is NOT an invitation to DM me or any woman.
At least 10 males sent me inappropriate DMs today.
If I wanted a sugar daddy 🙄 or an affair I sure as hell wouldn’t look on SM.

One approach no one seems to be considering is that Democratic politicians could try being LESS strategic and just say what they actually think.
