These people are evil. Never stop saying so. Don’t be intimidated into shutting up.

The brave men and women who serve in our national guards must not be used as political props. This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness.

​I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation.

We must now start calling this what it is: Trump’s Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state’s military troops.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

we simply do not have a union anymore if the president is using troops from one state to invade others entirely on the basis of political disagreements

Hey #NEISvoid has anyone gotten a zero-gravity power recliner? Looking for feedback good/bad. Thx! #POTS #MEcfs

It's 2025, 6 years into a pandemic that has caused an epidemic of new cases of #MECFS.

There have never been so many advocacy orgs and quality resources available to inform on MECFS.

And still, media pieces that mention #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis are misinformed and incorrect.

#pwME

IKEA tariffs is trending but not the 100% tariff on brand name pharmaceuticals which will actually kill ppl.

America in a nutshell.

I'm seeing some people post this and not realize this is PART of the radicalization. Building an audience from reasonable sounding videos and converting them into the pipeline. Weiss is doing this now as I get The Free Press ads about things like "low tech parenting" and workout fads.

it's absolutely critical to understand in this moment that people aren't largely reacting to who Charlie Kirk was as a person, but who they knew him as because of what tiny pieces of him got clipped out and stuck in their newsfeeds.

RFK is secretary of Hazards and Human Suffering. His testimony today shows his staggering incompetency and his complete indifference to the truth — indifference that is costing lives.

He must be impeached before he harms more people. #ImpeachRFK

Unite w/ over 1000 current & former HHS employees (includes CDC) in the call for RFK Jr’s immediate removal as HHS Secretary. saveHHS.org

RFK Jr’s attacks on CDC affect health & safety of the nation. Public health is based on evidence & science not personal or political agendas.

Can't believe it's been 7 years since the first Symposium. That was a wonderful "worth it" day.

Useful to think about this administration as a set of reactionary regime changes. At CDC, from pro-science to pro-quackery. And, at the Pentagon, from pro-Union to pro-Confederacy.

Please consult with House members and begin the impeachment process! @alsobrooks.senate.gov

Leading doctors, scientists and medical experts are leaving the CDC because they’re so disgusted with RFK Jr’s “leadership” and the direction the agency is headed in.

This is very bad news for public health all over the world.

What happens in the US won’t stay in the US.

I lost my Mom to pancreatic cancer when I was 19. She was only 47.

My grandmother also died from it at 53.

When Mom was diagnosed, she sat me down and said she knew exactly what I was feeling because she felt the same way when her Mom was dying.

Big swing in humidity?
