According to my CDC sources, the bird flu situation is worsening, with many cases being underreported. Numerous individuals are exhibiting flu-like symptoms, yet the Trump administration has warned that anyone who releases information about the bird flu will be fired.

Elon’s “Department of Government Efficiency” just walked into NOAA and Commerce like they owned the place. No legal authority, no transparency—just gutting climate data access while daring anyone to stop them. If you like accurate weather forecasts and ocean protections, buckle up.

Musk also has our “bank routing numbers” if we allow “direct deposit” of any federal payments to our private bank accounts.
Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, military pay, veteran benefits, government staff pay & pensions, government contract work, government grant recipients, etc.

These are the type of horrific policy decisions corporations empowered by the Citizens United decision have been lobbying for.
Rep. Andy Biggs would nix worker protection to appease billionaires | Opinion
Of course, Arizona U.S. Rep. Andy Biggs would want to abolish OSHA. Worker safety is not his concern.

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

I finally realized what bugs me about the TikTok notice: it’s not that Trump may save it, it’s the ‘we need his permission’ vibe. It feels very Handmaid’s Tale. I don’t need permission to post on a social platform. TikTok, you’re starting to feel like a bad place. Never OfTrump
