The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

VA SAVE suicide prevention training has been temporarily halted while they scrub LGBTQ+ and DEI info.
The free research webinar series, that used to be open to the public, now requires a “va.gov” email to register and access. Veterans and non-VA providers can no longer access this resource.
