From left to right are Shannon W. Lucid, Margaret Rhea Seddon, Kathryn D. Sullivan, Judith A. Resnik, Anna L. Fisher, and Sally K. Ride. NASA selected all six women as their first female astronaut candidates in January 1978.

Maybe we should honor the women who were real astronauts.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN.

☎️: (202) 224-3121

Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid.

The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING.

Call retiring Senators too!

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start

Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

This is Winston Churchill visiting the White House during World War II.

Funny how he isn’t wearing a suit either. Almost like he was a wartime leader defending his country from being slaughtered and wiped out by an authoritarian aggressor.

If your representative is dodging in-person town halls, call them out! Tag them and demand they face their constituents.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.

There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP

Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

It’s one of the smartest things they could do. They don’t have to leave D. Just post here first and engage.

They never engage there. They can actually talk to people here. And yes there are republicans and independents on here.

Many Republicans hate Toxicity too.

So.

It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year.

I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :)

Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Biden capped insulin at $35/mo -- Republicans are now undoing it

Biden capped inhaler at $35/mo -- Republicans are now undoing it

Biden stopped banks from hurting you with overdraft fees -- Republicans are now undoing it

Trump, Musk, and the GOP are RAISING your costs

People are waking up to just how bad things are with co-presidents Trump & Musk and Republicans running Congress.

We don’t have to wait for midtermsβ€”we can win special elections now. We’ve been here before and won.

They were careless people, Trump and Musk β€” they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that held them together.

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options.

Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

Which Federal Programs Are Under Scrutiny? The Budget Office Named 2,600 of Them. (Gift Article) The Trump administration ordered temporary freezes in funding for programs spanning virtually every part of the government. Here’s the full list.

Here is a list of the 2,600 programs under funding freezes as they are reviewed by the Trump Administration:

The crisis is here. Dems will win by making this fight about impact on people’s lives.

The GOP wants to fight on β€œfederal funding.” They’re not attacking β€œfunding.” They’re attacking veterans, kids who need school lunches, people battling cancer, workers trying to unionize.
