The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food. The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of PFAS — also known as "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.

Shameful. This guy is so earnest and patient in describing what happened—something truly un-American. I hope his girlfriend and the family behind them are okay.

This is what oligarchy is about.

While planning massive cuts to Medicaid, the Republicans are proposing to provide another $235 billion in tax breaks to the top 0.2% of households through an increase in the estate tax exemption.

The very rich get richer. The poor lose health care. Outrageous.

Adolf Hitler's “Mein Kampf” is still on U.S. Naval Academy shelves. “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings” and “Memorializing the Holocaust” are not.

An order by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s office led to a purge of books that are critical of racism — but preserved volumes defending white power.

The United States Secretary of Defense has a Russian email address and a Russian phone number. That seems bad.

Remember the day Elon bragged with an infantile giggle about putting USAID into the "wood chipper". just your bog standard sociopath marauding through our world.
The Trump administration terminates funding for polio, HIV, malaria and nutrition programs around the world.

“People will die,” said Dr. Catherine Kyobutungi of the African Population and Health Research Center, “but we will never know, because even the programs to count the dead are cut.”

This. Also. @aoc.bsky.social @ericswalwell.bsky.social et al , can you do what ever you guys do in the House to let Musk, Trump and everyone know that the UCFE, which funds unemployment benefits , is in the Dept of Labor. If these funds are cut, the cost will fall on the states.
Dear recently fired, federal, employees,
Apply for UCFE unemployment benefits ASAP !!!

This morning, I sent a letter to the Office of Government Ethics (OGE) regarding Elon Musk’s potential conflicts of interest.

Within minutes, the White House confirmed receipt.

By noon, President Trump fired the Director of OGE.

I want to know: Was this to prevent his answer?

Donald Trump wants to abolish the Department of Education by executive order.

He can’t. And he will waste taxpayer dollars to defend it.

More litigation over another pointless order.

Less money for education.
