I consider myself a pragmatic progressive. Also a Southern refugee in Colorado hoping to give my daughter more rights.
I work with startups & venture capital, but also a bit of a political animal

How awful. This is outright health disinformation, lying to the American people. Not only is there massive evidence showing no link between vaccines & autism, there’s not even a plausible mechanism based on what we’ve learned about the genetics of autism, some environmental exposures in pregnancy
HEADS UP: CDC website now officially asserts that vaccines may cause autism.“Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities.” Also says the “vaccines do not cause autism” header remains b/c of an agreement with Cassidy.

Even if this were true (it’s not at all) depriving 40 million needy people to arrest a few hundred is objectively insane.
KUDLOW: Are you able to reform the SNAP and food stamp program? Are there a lot of able-bodied people who shouldn't be in there?
BROOKE ROLLINS: What DOGE and our amazing team at USDA have found is 186,000 dead people are receiving SNAP benefits. We've made hundreds of arrests.

All this tells me is they have all agreed that they will either stall by opening new investigations, or just lie about what they are releasing (or worse, destroying/have destroyed records already)

Larry Summers is a grotesque buffoon who has repeatedly been granted power over others he didn’t deserve and that he abused. He’s also much closer to the internal norm and ideal of the intensely predatory, opportunistic, and vapid academic field of economics than his colleagues want to concede.

Cassidy: "The president is proposing that we take the $26b that would be going to insurance companies if we just do an extension and give it directly to the American people in which 100% of the money is used for them to purchase healthcare on their own terms. That makes them an informed consumer."

Now we should tell him, loudly, that he needs to go.

Trump has done enormous harm to the country.
He is a deeply corrupt and venal man.
He is wildly unpopular, his agenda more so. He's lost the consent of the governed.
He is old, infirm & clearly no longer mentally competent to run a nation.
It is time now to start talking about him moving on👇

Growing list of reasons Trump should step down:
- Cover up of his involvement in notorious sex trafficking ring
- Unprecedented corruption, self enrichment
- Tariffs are historic, unprecedented abuse of power
- Illegal desecration of most important global symbol of American democracy
