A tweet from Libs of TikTok with a photo of a Black female judge and screenshot of the lawsuit. The tweet announces the law has been enjoined, and the rest of the tweet is scratched out to avoid useless transphobia. The GA GOP has retweeted it and said โThe House of Representatives should pass Articles of Impeachment against Judge Calvert.โ
SB 185, banning gender affirming care for incarcerated ppl in GA, was ruled unconstitutional, and now the GAGOP is calling for the removal of the judge. Transphobia is directly tied to democratic backsliding and itโs a farce to pretend it isnโt. Liberation for all of us or none of us. Cc: democrats

Emory University to discontinue its DEI programs, offices
Emory had previously embraced diversity efforts, but interim president Leah Ward Sears wrote that the decision was due to federal laws and mandates.
By ending DEI programs, Emory isnโt just closing offices โ itโs closing doors. Students deserve every opportunity to learn, thrive, and belong. Retreating from equity undermines the very promise of higher education. Emory can, and must, do better. #DEI #Emory

Flock Wants to Partner With Consumer Dashcam Company That Takes โTrillions of Imagesโ a Month
That dashcam in your car could soon integrate with Flock, the surveillance company providing license plate data to DHS and local police.
New: Flock, the ALPR company in thousands of U.S. communities and which ICE taps into, wants to partner with a firm that sells dashcams to ordinary drivers. Nexar gets "trillions" of images a month from the dashcams. Could turn cars into roaming surveillance devices www.404media.co/flock-wants-...

Btw, I remember there being some anxieties around folks expressing their opinions during primaries.
Besides being nowhere near a presidential primary at the moment, now is in fact the time for people to express certain lines they expect candidates not to cross.
Protect trans folks.

The intense panic while he tries to remember what the PR acceptable phrasing of "be thrown in jail" was.
Or hey, since he's talking about Atlanta, maybe he was going for "be killed." RIP Cornelius Taylor.

Yesterday on Twitter, RFK Jr. blatantly accused doctors of vaccinating patients solely for money. Earlier in the week, he cancelled $500m in funding for mRNA vaccines.
Then a man who apparently thought his illness was caused by the COVID19 vaccine fired numerous rounds at the CDC, killing a man.

Standing Together in the Wake of the CDC Tragedy

Dear colleagues,
As many of you have heard, a tragic shooting occurred yesterday at the CDCโs Roybal Campus in Atlanta. One police officer, David Rose, lost his life in the line of duty. Our prayers are with the officerโs wife and three children, one of them unborn.
I also send my prayers out to the entire CDC family โ especially those directly impacted. We know how deeply unsettling this is, particularly for those working in Atlanta. The shock and uncertainty that follow incidents like this are real, and they affect us all in different ways.
We want everyone to know, youโre not alone. Leadership is in close coordination with CDC teams to ensure support is available on the ground. Any HHS staff feeling the weight of this tragedy can call the SAMHSA Disaster Distress 24/7 Helpline at 1-800-985-5990.
This is a reminder of the very human challenges public servants sometimes face โ even in places dedicated to healing and progress. But it also reinforces the importance of the work you do every day. From public health labs to data systems to community programs, your efforts matter. They move us closer to our shared goal: making this country healthier, safer, and more resilient.
Weโll get through this the same way we approach our mission โ together.
In solidarity,
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
RFKJ, will there be enough staff at SAMHSA to answer our calls since you fired most of them?
And which part of our work is important? COVID vaccines? Violence prevention (also fired).
We donโt need your platitudes. We need you to stop telling lies that are putting our lives in danger.

I don't want to hear a fucking thing from GOP leadership on what a tragedy the CDC shooting is. Kash Patel needs to keep the slain officer's name out of his fucking mouth. You don't get to cause stochastic terrorism and then cry about how awful it is.

The CDC thing has me really fucked up. I canโt tell you how much stochastic terrorism driven by Covid disinformation has been a concern in every workplace Iโve been in since 2020. And seeing this play out, Iโm realizing it just blends into โanother day in the insanity!โ for all of you. Fuck me, man.

I've been at Emory for 3 years and this is my second active shooter situation. It's fucked. The first one turned out to be a high schooler who had a gun but didn't shoot anyone, but it's still so fucked.
