Good night, friends.
Tonight was deeply painful.

We at CDC do this work because we care.
It’s long hours, often feeling overworked and not enough pay, but we do it because we want to make the world a better place.

It certainly makes the whole "radical left violent terrorists" thing difficult to swallow. 😂🤣

It's brilliant!

A Reduction in Force (RIF) generally requires written notice at least 60 days in advance. This notice must include details about the reasons for the RIF, the effective date, and information on the employee's appeal rights.

I smell massive lawsuits.

If governors don't have the power to have masked armed criminals that are kidnapping innocent people arrested, then why do we even have governors and police? @govpritzker.illinois.gov @jbpritzker.bsky.social you speak truth, protect your state and citizens.

Picture how big the Hoover Dam is. An absolute unit. The Hoover Dam has a power capacity of 2 gigawatts (GW).

The solar farm that the Admin just cancelled could have produces 6.2 GW of power. That's more than 3 Hoover Dams.

SCOOP: The Bureau of Land Management says the largest solar project in Nevada — the Esmeralda 7 mega-farm — has been canceled

The news was quietly dropped via a sudden website update with no public word from any of the companies involved or a statement from the agency

Esmeralda 7 Solar Project Has Been Canceled, BLM Says

It would have delivered a gargantuan 6.2 gigawatts of power.

MTG broke with Trump over Epstein Files, Health Insurance and the GOP Shutdown. Now virulent Trump apologist Laura Loomer is breaking with the Regime over a Qatari Air Base in Idaho. Maybe they finally realize Trump is selling America to the highest bidder. Even to supporters of terrorism #ProudBlue

People who have access to world class Healthcare are trying to gut it for the "woke" majority.

Those who support them are under the "find out" stage of denialism.
