Senator Schumer with all due respect for your past accomplishments, please step down. You are no longer the man for this job. This is a different time and business as usual politics no longer works. Time is up with Trump and Musk. They have already shut down our government.

Please listen and shareβ€”this is a very serious situation. This is extremely alarming! The Trump administration, across two agencies, is considering bringing criminal charges against employees simply for doing their jobs.

LGBTQIA minors make up 40% of the endangered minor runaway population. They are 120% more likely to be unhoused. They are also uniquely at risk for exploitation and trafficking.

This is breathtakingly evil.

To America’s 2.3 million federal employees:

Don’t accept a buyout.

Neither Musk nor even Trump has the legal authority to make such an offer.

And even if they did, would you trust them to follow through on it?

Sincerely,

Former U.S.Secretary of Labor

Foreign Aid Freeze Leaves Millions Without H.I.V. Treatment President Trump’s pause on aid, and the gutting of the primary aid agency, could jeopardize the health of more than 20 million people worldwide, including 500,000 children, experts say.

Without treatment, millions of people with H.I.V. would be at risk of severe illness and premature death. The loss of treatment also threatens the emergence of drug-resistant strains of H.I.V.; both outcomes could have a global impact, including in the United States.
