RIFed:

OSSAM - Office of Safety, Security, and Asset Management

Let this sink in. They are getting rid of federal employees tasked w/ protecting sensitive public health data - that we would NOT want foreign entities to get access to.

(Foreign entities - China, etc. But can we add Vought🤮💩 too?)

Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo believes his "spirit animal" is a tiger, and that an ex-Navy SEAL-turned-guru unleashed it by walking on the backs of his thighs.

This is medicine's Florida man.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

The Chemical Safety & Hazard Investigation Board
may be eliminated entirely under the proposed 2026 federal budget. It raises the risk of more, & more serious, chemical disasters—not just in the US, but around the world.

No pay wall.

Refinery fires, other chemical disasters may no longer get safety investigations

Because of the federal government shutdown and proposed budget, key federal investigations may stop, including into what happened at a Chevron refinery in California in October 2025.

October 7: The news industry's main trade group gives Blackburn its "Support Journalism Champion Award."

As Arizona braces for potentially deadly flooding, AZ-07 still doesn't have a Representative in Congress.

Speaker Johnson needs to swear her in now so she can advocate for the people of her district and coordinate with emergency management officials.
