Imagine being so pathologically reckless and instinctively contemptuous of public service that you accidentally fire nuclear scientists
The Energy Department is seeking to bring back nuclear energy specialists after abruptly telling hundreds of workers that their jobs were eliminated, according to two people familiar with the matter.

So, folks who sat out the election because Harris wasn’t progressive enough on Gaza, how’re you feeling right about now? Pretty good? Happy? … No?

And in the context of malaria, tuberculosis (which is having a moment in Kansas right now) and HIV treatment programs & research the US funded being shut off, the results of this buffoon being in charge of America’s public health will be even more dire. If you thought COVID was bad, buckle up.
RFK Jr. is a danger to public health. Every Republican senator who votes yes will own the consequences.
When RFK Jr. follows anti-vax conspiracies instead of science, when he greenlights Trump's anti-abortion agenda, when he cuts healthcare for seniors — remember who voted yes.

Good of you to notice, @murray.senate.gov; what are you and @cantwell.senate.gov doing about it?
Two weeks in, and it’s already painfully clear that this is the most corrupt administration in history, and it’s putting our economy, government, and most at-risk communities in serious jeopardy.

The United States is under attack. Elon Musk—who has been elected to nothing and is a deeply troubled person—is literally destroying our government from the inside and doing so without authority or consent of the governed. Working on a report on this right now. It’s an emergency.

Translation: Pres. Trump & OMB are still actively working to steal American taxpayers' money that is promised to communities across the country & will stop at nothing to increase the cost of living for hardworking Americans & undermine our national security at home and abroad.
WH Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt just clarified on X that the rescission of the OMB memo was simply to get the federal court case to go away, not lifting the funding freeze on anything that goes against Trump's EOs

Trump is halting support for popular programs that millions of Americans — especially children, students, and seniors — rely on.
All while gearing up to give his billionaire buddies and giant corporations another giant tax cut.

Trump's illegal freeze on billions of dollars allocated by law could:
-Hurt people in federally subsidized housing
-Block maternal and child health grants
-Halt emergency public health efforts
-Limit lead reduction efforts
-Hurt students on scholarship
-Harm hospitals
And much more.
