Today, I’m calling on our brave public servants:
I’m launching a new portal for anyone who wants to expose corruption, abuses of power, and threats to public safety with the legal protections of being a whistleblower.

Elon—the richest man on Earth—is gutting the world’s largest provider of food aid. He could end world hunger single-handedly and still be the richest man alive. But he won’t.
Instead, he spent 40 million on Super Bowl ads attacking USAID!

New — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) was told this week by DOJ that they'd lose their funding if the org didn't remove any mentions of LGBTQIA+ issues from their public materials, I've learned. Staff were told they need to deadname trans kids in their reports to comply.

New White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt did her first press briefing today and told a number of demonstrable lies (about condoms for Gaza, the criminal records of undocumented migrants, and more).
This is how the New York Times covered it.

Medicaid covers 41% of all USA births.
Pro life party that constantly screams about "declining birth rates," won't fund universal healthcare, won't fund pre-K, won't fund child tax credit, won't fund school lunches, & now eliminates healthcare needed for 2 of every 5 babies.
This will kill people.

"Make America Healthy Again"
More from inside NIH:
Per a source with knowledge, for all internal research (of which there is like $10 billion worth or so), ALL purchasing shut down as of yesterday.
That means gloves, reagents, anything involved with lab work, which means a lot of that work will stop.
