These dedicated public servants, and our country, deserve so much better.
💕 So many committed NIH employees, people who loved the place and loved public service were terminated today. It is terrible for them, and a loss for us all.
Mourning the loss of those who were RIF’d back in April. Our colleagues at NIH and across HHS are getting their official separation notices. These are friends and family members who were vital to the HHS mission being kicked to the curb. Please keep them in your thoughts.

Can you imagine the current president saying words like “humility?”

We need someone to ask a four hour question so Booker can take a nap
Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland just took the floor to give Corey a bit of a break. He's asking a 10 minute long question. This is going to last well into the afternoon. I have to say I'm impressed.

This is the 20th straight hour of Booker speaking. This is the energy and honesty we need in a Senate leader, not what we have been getting. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Booker: "I confess that I have been imperfect. I confess that I've been inadequate to the moment. I've confess that the Democratic Party has made terrible mistakes that gave a lane to this demagogue. I confess we all must look in the mirror and say 'we will do better.'"

Sen. Booker’s speech was a substantive and moral account of this moment. He did not read the phone book. He did not babble.
For 24 hours @booker.senate.gov laid out a detailed, damning, and critical narrative of truth, history, politics, morality, humanity.

What will you do?

My friend @booker.senate.gov just made history — but that’s not why he’s doing this.

He’s doing it because he knows there can be no business as usual when our democracy and our country are under attack by the lawless Musk-Trump administration.

Proud to be with him in this fight.

Trump, do you want to set up a compensation fund for the 140 sworn police officers wounded by your J6 “patriots” too? Or is it just the criminals you’re proposing to pay reparations? Why should the taxpayers pay for the upkeep of your mercenary gang?

The Musk-Trump administration has been attacking the NIH from Day 1 — disrupting operations while slashing lifesaving medical research. We've even heard DOGE was there TODAY, sowing more fear and chaos.

They are compromising our public health and putting American lives in danger.
