Trump: "The only reason our unemployment tucked up and went up to 4.5 percent [it's actually 4.6 percent] is because we are reducing the government workforce by numbers that have never been seen before."

I feel like that makes it worse, bc it underscores that it's not just (using just loosely) RFK Jr randomly being a conspiracy addled eugenicist wackjob -- this catastrophe was coordinated and had the backing of the conservative legal movement
It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.
And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

NEW: On a podcast last month, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary:
- said HIV “very likely came from a lab.”
- said Lyme disease came from a lab—“a high degree of probability.”
- said the so-called “Montauk
Monster”—a bloated, dead raccoon carcass—was proof “mad scientists” were doing experiments.

NSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

I'm not an economist but I don't see how this doesn't end in economic collapse. 1. Deporting the labor force that maintains our basic necessities 2. Slashing funding for education, government, and healthcare 3. Massive layoffs across the private sector 4. Destroying relationships with allies.

Tennessee does not initiate a recount based on random people calling the election board and asking for one. The losing candidate needs to formally contest the election with five days of certification. Then there might be a recount.
