Do we still have a House of Reps? Asking for a country… 🫠

Must be nice getting a 6 week paid vacation while fed workers go without pay 💀

I think this cartoon was circa Trump admin #1 - and even more painfully accurate today.

We’re proud of what we do at CDC. Proud to serve. Proud to be #FedStrong 💚

But for tonight’s lighter question:
If you weren’t in public health… what would your other dream job be? 🎭📚🎨

Yo resisters!
Listen to Mr. Dunn’s statement after acquittal. Former DOJ fed (now fired) spouts truth & brings substantial #altCitizen energy.

He was not some rando sandwich guy looking for trouble. Nope—he was on a mission to make good trouble, necessary trouble, because human dignity matters.

#NIH had another unofficial Montgomery County Day of Service. Today, we volunteered with @comfortcases.bsky.social. @robscheer.bsky.social has been a lifelong public servant to our country. Thank you, Angelika Stablow, for letting us prepare comfort cases with you. #FEDStrong #NIHStrong

So I just did this. I hope it works. I feel like a child who is begging a parent to come to a music recital. I've emailed Dr. Bhattacharya twice with no reply yet. I am looking forward to volunteering with @comfortcases.bsky.social tomorrow and Blue Star Families over Veterans' Day. #FEDStrong

I am neither a more skilled nor a more committed civil servant than those who were wrongfully terminated. Reinstate them. We have created more waste by firing them. #NIH #statssky #publichealthsky #FEDStrong
I wrote an explainer about the mass firings—the RIFs.

The RIFs all year have been clearly illegal. Russell Vought is using them to lawlessly clean out federal agencies. Lower court judges have said so. But the Calvinball Supreme Court has allowed them. 1/
The mass firings have been lawless: now and all year
The first step in stopping a lawless Supreme Court is being clear about what it’s doing

Please share! It’s constantly updated.

Good night, friends.

Thinking of everyone in the Caribbean facing Hurricane Melissa - we hope you and your loved ones all stay safe.

💚

Massive thanks to our NOAA colleagues, literally flying into the eye of the storm, working without pay (‼️), because their expertise saves lives.

During the furlough, we've organized #FEDstrong days of service in our communities. Today, eight of us recovered food for Nourish Now. Last week at @nihvigils.bsky.social with @27unihted.bsky.social's leadership, the #NIH community donated more than 450 pounds of food to Manna Food Bank.

So - #Feds -
What services, other than pay, are you unable to access during the #GOPShitdown that impact you most?
Are you noticing cuts that have not been a problem in past shutdowns?

I'm proud that our @nihvigils.bsky.social /No Kings day hosted a food drive. Civil service in all localities matter. #fedstrong
Yesterday’s food drive raised 800 lbs of food for our local food bank!!

Civil servants are still serving, even when we’re fired and furloughed.
Just a reminder that the Jan 6 "peaceful tourists" didn't also have a food drive to actually help Americans.
Join the NIH Vigil at the Medical Center Metro Station and show everyone what real patriots look like.

I listened to @alsobrooks.senate.gov at @nihvigils.bsky.social this morning. Either her mother or grandmother had taught herself to type to join civil service. This humble story confirms that #fedstrong isn't in it for the money but because we want to serve.
This is a season we are in. And I want you all to know that after the darkness, morning will surely come.

There are no kings in this country. We will keep fighting.

#FEDStrong. @markhisted.org asserts that we aren't chess pieces in whatever #OMB has in store for us.
I made a video about the shutdown, and why this government worker won’t be a pawn.

When the president and Supreme Court are both acting lawlessly, Congress must stand up and stop it.

US science is collapsing and Congress needs to act.

We help people before during and after disasters.

We meet people on what is often the worse day of their life, and walk them through it.

Our nation's federal employees are more than just numbers on a spreadsheet.

They make sure we have clean water.

They protect us from financial fraud.

They provide healthcare to our communities.

They make our government actually work for people.

Do not forget this.

@jenna-m-norton.bsky.social is right. You don't just delete laws. And drawing sharpie marks over it doesn't legitimize claims.

OMB deletes reference to law guaranteeing backpay to furloughed feds from shutdown guidance
An Office of Management and Budget FAQ document now states that only excepted employees forced to work without pay are guaranteed backpay at the conclusion of a lapse in appropriations.
