My mom feels a little embarrassed by this but she’s in need of some assistance if anyone can pitch in. Much appreciated!

Hey @conorlambpa.bsky.social can you primary this guy?
Hey @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social this isn’t the messaging you guys probably should be pushing right now. Just saying…
Nope. This is terrible messaging right now.
Repost a movie you know all the words to
👏👏👏
Good lord
To recap: Trump admin is firing Social Security employees; requiring beneficiaries to visit field offices in person instead of calling; and then saying any beneficiaries whose checks don’t come, and who therefore can’t pay the rent, must be fraudsters.
Insane. And not what Americans voted for.
Honestly wasn’t prepared for how lost and out of his depth Chuck Schumer is this interview. Doesn’t seem like he’s absorbed any new information since 2007. I don’t know who Senate Democrats’ best option is, but hard for me to imagine it’s this.
I’d like to ask every single New Yorker who’s remotely left of center to get actively involved in your local Democratic Party chapter with the goal of driving Schumer, Gillibrand, Hochul, Adams, Cuomo and all the other dead wood into retirement.
So at a time when vaccination rates in different areas and exemptions are increasing, the NIH has now decided it’s best not to look into why this is the case. Super genius move by MAHA. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...
We need a Navalny, not a Newsom.
No offense intended against mainstream politicians like Newsom.
It’s just that at this point we are way beyond the realm of normal bullshit politics.
Senator Bill Cassidy sure got hoodwinked by this guy.
The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.
Love this. It should not be limited to this term. But it’s a great step forward.
Now @khanna.house.gov and other house members need to make the media tour , including Fox News, to talk about it
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social
I’ve seen children die of
-influenza
-COVID
-pertussis
And wouldn’t wish those experiences on anyone.
Know what these things have in common?!
Effective vaccines that save lives.
If Murkowski and Collins were TRUE moderates, in this moment in our politics with a half trillionare burning down the government, they’d be caucusing with the Democrat.

Yes DO THIS!!!
I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.
The Epidemic Intelligence Service is getting ripped apart. #CDC #HHS

RFK Jr. confirmed as HHS Secretary. Tough days for public health 😑 #HHS #rfk
Now we’re cooking!
Thank you for doing something, @schatz.bsky.social.

The federal government built the internet and bankrolled nearly every tech innovation of the last 60+ years, one way or the other, from the “mother of all demos” in 1968 to Biden’s bailing out billionaire VC nitwits who did a run on Silicon Valley Bank in 2023
No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment.
One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.
Vaccine Information Sheets are no longer on the CDCs website. www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp...
Shout out to all the fuckwits who told me, two months ago, that scientists must strive to remain apolitical.
