RFK Jr.’s CDC just pulled a flu vaccine campaign in the middle of the worst flu season in 30 years. 29 million illnesses, 370,000 hospitalizations, and 16,000 deaths—including nearly 70 children.
Public health shouldn't be political. Get vaccinated.

Hurt the big corporations and oligarchs who support Trump by boycotting their products. If just 3.5% of the US participates (12 million people/ roughly 240k per state) each time, that’s enough to bring about action.

Sit down with your family & friends, have a serious conversation about the state of the United States right now; what Trump's actions mean for your future. Let them know this isn't about politics but ultimately the survival of you as a country, nation, and people. This is a war. #3E

Next year we will be commemorating the 250th anniversary of the founding of our nation, when we declared our independence from a king.

I've read most of the analyses of the DOGE 2025 "receipts" site. This, from NPR, is the best I've read so far. Some of what they claim to have cut haven't been cut, other "cuts" will incur costs down the road.
NPR says DOGE has made $2B of cuts, not $55B.

DOGE released data about federal contract savings. It doesn't add up
A new government tracker claims DOGE has saved billions from ending federal contracts. But an NPR analysis of the data finds the claimed savings don't add up.

If you were wondering if there is a word to describe how the United States is currently being governed, why, yes, there is: kakistocracy!

RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine, anti-science agenda is a threat to public health. Putting him in charge of America’s health care isn’t just reckless—it’s dangerous. Senator @pattymurray.bsky.social is right: the Senate must say NO. #StopRFK
