This isn't hypothetical.
The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

This is beyond reckless. With measles cases spreading across TX and the U.S., we need scientists at the table, not folks pushing conspiracy theories. RFK Jr. is playing games with people’s lives.

RFK Jr. forces out Peter Marks, FDA’s top vaccine scientist
Marks, an architect of Operation Warp Speed for coronavirus vaccines, warned that a measles outbreak shows how confidence in science is being “undermined.”

Here’s @timothysnyder.bsky.social on why the use of Signal is the real scandal: “Signalgate is shocking on its own. But more troubling when we begin to understand — Signal chats provide American authorities with cover to plan the violation of human rights.” open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

I'm no lawyer, but it seems like discussing war plans in Signal outside a SCIF is maybe just a little bit worse than using a private server to send emails that weren't even marked as classified. But what do I know.

I'm not surprised by trump's disgustingly negative attitude about disabled people.
It's who he is, and who he's always been.
This should have been the end.

Let's be clear: the Medicaid portal went offline because of Donald Trump's orders.
The only reason it is back on is due to outrage from the American people.
Now, they are trying to lie about it.
Medicaid was never taken away from Americans under President Biden.

Trump is pausing federal grants and loans as his administration begins an across-the-board ideological review of its spending.
It could affect trillions and cause widespread disruption in health care research, education programs and more. Even grants not yet spent are to be halted.

Here is a call script to urge your Congress members to act against President Trump’s actions potentially violating the Impoundment Control Act:
Hello, [Representative/Senator’s Name],
Hello, [Representative/Senator’s Name],
![My name is [Your Name], and I’m a constituent from [Your City, IL]. I’m calling to express my deep concern about President Trump’s recent executive orders directing federal agencies to withhold congressionally appropriated funds. These actions appear to violate the Impoundment Control Act of 1974 and undermine the Constitution’s separation of powers.
I urge you to take all necessary steps to investigate these actions, ensure transparency, and demand the release of improperly withheld funds. Please stand up for Congress’s power of the purse and protect our democracy.
Thank you for your time.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:gph7oe57wbgb4cymr2iv276y/bafkreifnqbbaj6tas5dsxljkkgqibajunq57hb3g3g3vttmyrx3n2h4i2y@jpeg)
