Crowd still growing in Austin. #handsoff #austin #protest

“Hands Off” rally in Lubbock, Texas. In the freezing temperatures, wind and snow!

March from Capitol of WI

Protestors

Big crowd

Madison, Wisconsin

I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff

Really apparent something massive is going to give in this country and I do not think anyone is ready for it.

LISTEN to Barack Obama: The most important office in this democracy is the citizen.

Freedom tomorrow is not a given—it has to be fought for.

LFG!

Doctor Behind Award-Winning Parkinson’s Research Among Scientists Purged From NIH Leading scientists at the National Institutes of Health, the US’s leading medical research agency, were swept up Tuesday in the Trump administration’s latest firing blitz.

“Dr. Richard Youle, a leading researcher in the field of neurodegenerative disorders…including identifying mechanisms behind Parkinson’s disease” was one of several top scientists PURGED from the NIH today courtesy of Trump/Musk/DOGE.

Elon Musk went to Wisconsin where he said the "destiny of humanity" rested on the election. Tonight the voters agreed and rejected his and Trump's undemocratic vision for the country.

BREAKING NEWS: ELECTIONS STILL MATTER!!! CUT THE NIHILISM AND GET TO WORK!!!!

Americans, watch and learn.

Balaji Srinivasan suggests giving Elon Musk “control of a huge swath of land surrounding Starbase, Texas” & designate that land as “a military base or … similar, so that [Musk] can fence it off & determine at his sole discretion who can enter.” Then replicate in other states w/ other Tech Bros. 1/

Fun fact about Trump tariffs you won’t see in 99% of the reporting:

Trump tariffs are illegal.

Congress controls tariffs just like tax rates.

President can change a tariff only for national security emergency, meaning war.

OMFG

There’s a major shift in U.S. cybersecurity policy. A recent CISA memo removed Russia from its list of priorities, focusing instead on China and local systems. Analysts were told not to track Russian cyber threats.

Remember this: Tyranny cannot prevail over people who refuse to succumb to it.

This is absolute gaslighting. Zelensky did nothing wrong and Trump and Vance were on the attack. Sad how desperate WAPO and Bezos are to bend the knee. When WAPOs tagline was "Democracy Dies in Darkness" I didn't imagine WAPO would be turning off the light.

Red states-pay attention, because you’ll get hit hardest!

They’re gutting NOAA to privatize weather forecasting. Knowledge is power—forecasting is knowledge.

Fossil fuel execs rake in billions while the planet chokes—folks keep guzzling gas & won’t notice the climate crisis while the world burns.

America,

This is our Germany 1933 moment.

Decide who the f*ck you're gonna be, what you stand for, what you want your legacy to be—and how you are going to respond.

This is beyond party, beyond country.

This is about our collective humanity.

FDA cancels meeting to select flu strains for next season's shots The canceled meeting comes just days after a CDC vaccine advisory committee meeting was abruptly postponed.

Dear Senate GOP,

You voted unanimously for RFK Junior and he perjured himself about not interfering with vaccine schedules. The flu vaccine is proven to save lives. This INACTION will KILL Americans especially seniors & people like me with compromised immune systems.

Musk says DOGE ‘restored’ Ebola prevention effort. Officials say that’s not true. USAID’s initiatives to fight Ebola and other diseases have been gutted, current and former agency officials said.

Every news outlet reporting Elon Musk's comment about accidentally canceling Ebola prevention efforts and quickly restoring them should also say they haven't been restored, they're still canceled, the outbreak-fighting teams are dismantled, the money is gone

Chief Justice Allows U.S. to Continue Freeze on Foreign Aid Payments Lawyers for the government had said it would miss a deadline to release more than $1.5 billion in payments for past aid work and sought a late intervention from the Supreme Court.

Every second that these payments are frozen:

Our national security is diminished.
Infectious diseases around the world go untreated, leaving Americans at risk.
China expands its footing at America's expense.

What Trump and Musk are doing is clearly illegal and SCOTUS should say so.

RFK Jr. Takes a Sledgehammer to Two Major Vaccine Developments Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is already implementing his dangerous anti-vax views at HHS.

NEW:

“Kennedy paused a multimillion dollar project to create a new Covid-19 vaccine in pill form on Tuesday, and the Food and Drug Administration canceled an advisory committee meeting on updating next season’s flu vaccine.”

Billionaires are not “scared” and are not “bending the knee.”

Billionaires are being freed from the shackles of needing to pretend to care about other people.
