I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

I wish this was an April Fool’s joke.

Today, Trump and RFK Jr. are gutting HHS by firing thousands of people working on global health, substance abuse prevention, & mental/behavioral health.

This is a full-scale attack on the guardrails that protect the wellbeing of Americans.
Hearing from all corners of HHS this morning about a total bloodletting — firings of scientists, analysts and many more as delayed RIFs take effect.

Many folks didn’t see early AM email and showed up, only to be turned away when badges didn’t work. Was sent this photo of long lines at one HHS site.

More than half of military veterans supported Trump in last fall's election because they thought he'd help improve VA services. He's definitely not, as Mike Sorrell details in the piece below:
Trump fails military veterans - yet again
Many trusted him to help them, but he continues to create turmoil at VA facilities

When you take a chainsaw to killing programs that help children with cancer, veterans and the elderly. WE THE PEOPLE are going to HATE YOU AND TAKE YOU DOWN. Not because we are weak. BECAUSE WE ARE STRONG ASSHOLE, AND YOU ARE WEAK AS SHIT.

If Trumpty-Dumpty is working with the Russians to screw up America, he's doing a great job. Eggs, $11 a dozen. Health & Human Services down the dumper, ditto VA. If you call Social Security, they tell you to call back later. Guys 'n gals, this is more fucked up than Peter O'Toole on his birthday.

Trump’s foreign policy strategy:

‘Let’s see if I can piss off every country before lunch.’ 🤔

So far, Iran, China, Canada, Panama, and half of NATO are on the list.

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother.

The only way someone can be added to a Signal chat is if the person who started the text group--the admin--directly adds them or directly approves their request to be added.

There is no way Jeffrey Goldberg could wish his way into that text group.

Mike Waltz accidentally added him. That's it.
