I would love to be able to take a deep breath and still live to talk about it. There will be some bumps in the road ahead of us, but we will make it through ❤️💯

We’re meant to calmly accept the absurd idea that any white man is innately qualified for any job or position, no matter what his education, resume or proven capabilities and any non-white man or woman inherently stole their way into employment via #DEI. This of course is pure, undiluted fascism.

A quick reminder: For every $1 of research funding, NIH generated $2.46 in economic activity. This includes funding jobs in all 50 states. This isn't a red/blue thing: 8.9 jobs per $1M in CA & 12 jobs per $1M in GA. #AcademicSky #PhDSky #MedSky #HealthSky #healthequity #SciComm

Please shop at COSTCO!!!
Goodbye Target. Hello, Costco.
Shop at COSTCO, folks. The only company that didn't cave and furthermore doubled down on DEI efforts and said it has helped their revenue, their products, their employees, and their customers.

So to keep tabs, Trump hired a man to run defense whose former colleagues called him a falling down drunk (he denies it) and who paid a woman $50k for...he hasn't said but he's also denied sexually assaulting her or abusing one of his ex-wives. And he's hiring a former drug addict to run healthcare.

So we are all in a union right? 👀

Right?!?!

Because it’s not about being the smartest in the room. That’s not real power. Collective power is real power.

I never, ever, EVER want to hear a single Republican ever talk about "meritocracy" again. That dog will never hunt again.
very excited to see what happens when you make a deeply compromised addict the leader of the department of defense and subordinate to a madman

Trump while surveying hurricane recovery in NC today: "I'll also be signing an executive order to begin the process of fundamentally reforming and overhauling FEMA or maybe getting rid of FEMA..I’d rather see the states take care of their own problems.”

He's not just stupid, he's dangerous.

Build collective protocols.

Now is the time to protect the most venerable. They’re banking on your ego breaking.

Organize.
Craft protocols.

Our hospital has sent out instructions, including:

- not providing patient info
- the requirement for a warrant or signed court order to enter
- contacting hospital legal
- contacting security if escalating to conflict / fear

Your hospital may vary.

Normally, most Americans and even we in the media don't pay much attention to the Secretary of Defense. Now with Pete Hegseth running this critical agency he has absolutely no qualifications for, which controls our nukes, we'll be keeping tabs daily to see if he's drunk off his ass or goofing on TV.

This is a slap in the face to American women.

Pete Hegseth has a track record of disrespecting women service members, and multiple credible sexual assault allegations.

Our troops deserve better.
