As of today, a new term has entered our language. A “rubio” is a spineless lump of nothing. Example: Don’t be such a rubio.

YES!
With DEI GONE jobs will not hire/accommodate disabled people anymore either. Disability encompasses Race & Gender. Not that Corporations really EVER did hire disabled folks, especially in Red States.

Cuts in NIH funding/Fraud rhetoric with disability payments/MedCosts⤴

This is Eugenics.

Politico helped Trump launder lies during the campaign and he’s been on a week-long rampage against them anyway ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This Politico story from last October shows how easy it is to launder lies through the press. It claimed Trump would ban anyone tied to Project 2025 from a job in a second Trump administration.
“Clearly people working on Project 2025 are blacklisted,” said an unidentified Trump insider. 1/4🧵

The names include conservatives linked to Project 2025 and Republicans viewed as disloyal to the former president.

I work in HR and had a coffee meeting with a job coach at one of our partner organizations the other day. The coffee shop was in an area with a high homeless population. The coach expressed concerns that many of his clients could end up on the streets, if the orgs no longer have the money to help.

Canadian, so we still have our Charter of Rights and a functioning Supreme Court, but it’s also Alberta where our premier is a MAGAT. She’s slashed funding to all disability groups. So, while it’s illegal to discriminate, they don’t have the funds to help clients find jobs or housing.

Folks, I don't intend to post about every single horrible thing that's happening at the moment because I'm not a direct news source and also because my mental health has an upper limit. Don't confuse lack of obsessive news updating for lack of concern or lack of personal action. Also, here's a cat.

We’re focused on feeding our kids.

Investing in our schools.

Making sure child care is affordable.

Regardless of the chaos unfolding in Washington, we’re making Minnesota the best state for kids to grow up.

My staff is hearing reports from Head Start programs in Oregon that they're still locked out of federal funds. My office is doing everything it can to get more info and get funds flowing before providers have to start closing their doors.
