There’s no single medical establishment, and definitely no clear plan for what to do without CDC.

States could make their own vaccine rec’s and do surveillance, but some of what CDC does needs to be coordinated at scale.

AZ has significant health infrastructure (Which would help).

What he not saying is that his friends and cronies invested a fortune in Argentina since their guy Milei won, they stand to lose a big chunk of those fortunes the way things are going, and Argentina’s elections are in two weeks and we are tampering in them to bail Milei out.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

That Stephen Miller has been a “longtime proponent of invoking the insurrection act.” Tells you that he has a long history of being wrong on that— you know, since we haven’t actually had an insurrection outside of J6.

Heather Cox Richardson (TDPR) @hcrichardson.bsky.social · 2d

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

Here's the play:

1. Use the media to paint veterans as a "burden."

2. Turn the public against those who served.

3. Gut the VA for profit.

It's a vile attempt to fracture our country and betray a sacred promise. We're not falling for it.

"Speaker Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House may have more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records."

SCOOP: Johnson closed House hours after Congress received Epstein’s financial records

The decision to shut down the House — and by extension the government — came hours after the Oversight Committee received documents from the US Treasury.
