A new type of vaccine based on mRNA technology is seen by many as a potential breakthrough in the fight against cancer.

We sat down with oncologist Lennard Lee to discuss why he hopes these vaccines will prove to be the “silver lining of the pandemic.”

If your own member of Congress is a Democrat and hasn't made this demand, ask them why.

If your member is a Republican, ask them anyway. Don't let them off the hook. Let them know you're watching all this.
Today, I am calling on Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and other top officials in the Trump administration to resign immediately due to their reckless and unlawful disclosure of national security secrets. Their actions have put our country at risk, and immediate accountability is necessary

All these security risks need to step down. (but those emails...)

Say NO to the current REPUBLICAN budget. This is not bipartisan and has nothing us Democratic party members want. Make the Republicans own it. We have won in court on some things but still - where is our money? NYS still hasn't gotten its $80 million back that the feds stole from us.

I strongly support funding for public education from federal, state, and local levels.

Recently, we heard of our local representative in the House, Claudia Tenney, co-sponsoring a bill to terminate the Department of Education (US-HR899). /1

I imagined this was going to be much more subtle and crafty way to dismantle our federal government and instead it's theft right out in the open from people who pretend they're smart. I hope that the people who believe in government for all people and real democracy will give it a revival.

No reason for shutting off electric charging stations for the federal government other than to steal more money to give to Musk. Stop taking our stuff. Are there contracts that are going to be broken to make this happen? I'm guessing yes.
This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

I want high speed rail! Where's our high speed rail USA? Plenty of other countries have them, why can't we?
That Duffy rose higher than Applebees assistant manager in his life is a damning indictment of celebrity worship in america
Incredible. Rail fans at LA Union Station heckle and boo Duffy’s remarks at the press conference where he has announced an FRA investigation into CA High Speed Rail.

They yell “Cowards!” “Build the Rail!” and “We Pay Taxes, We Want the Train!” #IWillRide

Is this thing sharp? I dunno, let's touch it to find out.
(also, that little kid is waaaaaaaaaaaay to close to the chainsaw).
President Javier Milei of Argentina arrived at DOGE and gave Elon Musk a chainsaw to help him cut spending in the US Government.
February 21, 2025 at 5:39 AM
So if one goes to Argentina, the souvenir one most definitely needs to get is a chainsaw, right? Also, make sure to check that it's sharp (he did). And swing it around maniacally (also check). So weird.
elon musk at cpac was so fucking weird you guys I know this reads like a parody but I literally just wrote down what happened www.theverge.com/elon-musk/61...

DOGE recommended firing workers at:

-FDA, which oversees Neuralink

-FAA, which oversees SpaceX

-USAID, which probed Starlink

-CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X.

"Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

How many federal workers do you personally know that have been fired recently?
I just learned of one I know personally today, for the forest service, who lost his job with more than half of the staff they work with. Not OK.

The NY governor is now having to step up... this was most likely a quid pro quo for mayor Adams. With four of his deputies resigning, it seems more and more likely Adams needs to go.

How many protests were the around the US today? How many of you saw coverage of that in your national or regional news organization?
Personally we were snowed in today so my protest work is happening digitally today.

Are you happy with your local school district losing 11% of its budget? If not, tell everyone you know, contact your local reps, go to your local school board meeting. Ask them what they plan to do to make up for the shortfall.

It's like they tried to do all of Project 2025 in the first two weeks. Why do people believe the lies, yet don't believe what they actually said they would do? Yes, he's doing Project 2025. It was supposed to take much longer than this.
