Republicans are waging a generalized war on science, but I think many of them don’t fully grok that RFK isn’t at war with science alone or per se: he’s at war with sick people, and of the view that only the lucky should be allowed to survive into old age. They are know nothings, he is Mengele.

You’d think he’d like this since they made him look so slim.

Federal cuts force Head Start program with +400 kids, 70 jobs to close in Eastern WA There are reports the Trump administration is considering doing away with the federal program altogether.

No one should believe for one second that this funding was delayed by accident.

Trump is intentionally slow-walking resources and forcing Head Start centers to close—meaning kids kicked out of the classroom, teachers losing their jobs, and child care getting more expensive.

RFK Jr. forces out Peter Marks, FDA’s top vaccine scientist Marks, an architect of Operation Warp Speed, warned that a recent measles outbreak shows how confidence in science and public health is being “undermined.”

In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

This is blatantly illegal and dangerous beyond belief.

Our national security is in the hands of complete amateurs.

What other highly sensitive national security conversations are happening over group chat? Any other random people accidentally added to those, too?

We're fighting back.

What the Education Department layoffs could mean for students with disabilities Experts say this week's mass layoffs could lead to less research and support for children with special needs.

17 States Sue To End Protections For Students With Special Needs The suit challenges a Biden administration decision that considered "gender dysphoria" a disability and goes even farther in questioning assistance for students.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS IN CASE OF ICE: CONOCE TUS DERECHOS EN CASO DE ENCUENTRO CON ICE:

DO NOT OPEN YOUR DOOR. ICE cannot enter your home without a warrant signed by a judge. Tell the agents to show you the warrant by sliding it under the door. NO ABRAS TU PUERTA. ICE no puede entrar a tu casa sin una orden firmada por un juez. Diles a los agentes que te muestren la orden deslizándola debajo de la puerta.

ASK THEM TO LEAVE. If ICE doesn't have a warrant, tell them you do not consent for them to enter your home and ask them to leave. At work, ICE cannot enter employee-only areas without permission. 2 PÍDALES QUE SE VAYAN. Si ICE no tiene una orden judicial, diles que no das tu consentimiento para que entren a tu casa y pídeles que se vayan. En el trabajo, ICE no puede ingresar a áreas exclusivas para empleados sin permiso.

REMAIN SILENT. You have the right to remain silent. If the agents ask you questions, tell them, "I wish to remain silent." PERMANECE EN SILENCIO. Tienes derecho a permanecer en silencio. Si los agentes te hacen preguntas, diles: "Deseo permanecer en silencio".

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.
