The indictment of Letitia James should alarm us all.

It was meant to send a message: If you cross Trump, you could be next.

If you look closely, you can see signs of GOP lawmakers fearing the long-term political consequences of paying more attention to Trump's demands than to the voices of their own constituents - or consciences.

Also, in direct contradiction to Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins’ claim that mass deportations will make the farm workforce “100% American,” the labor dept admitted Americans won’t take those jobs and don’t have the skills to replace the undocumented workers leaving them. DUH X2.

We’re in a health care crisis.

Hospitals and clinics will close from Trump’s cuts.

15 million people will lose their health care.

Now Trump’s CDC layoffs are making it even WORSE by gutting our ability to stop emerging health threats.

Democrats are fighting to stop this.

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

A Letter to America’s Discarded Public Servants: You Deserved Better

Mass CDC cuts hit staff dealing with measles, Ebola and disease forecasting Another round of mass layoffs has struck CDC. The agency had already been cut during a reorganization this year, and more employees are now being shed amid the government shutdown.

Make sure everyone knows: these mass firings are NOT because of the shutdown.

Trump doesn’t have to fire any of these people—he’s choosing to do it as an intimidation tactic.

Difficult to overstate how stupid and reckless this is.

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Hey, you idiotic propagandists at the New York Post:

Trump Administration Will Rehire Scores of Experts Fired in Error Friday’s layoffs swept up scientists involved in responding to the measles outbreak and running an influential journal. An official acknowledged the mistakes on Saturday.

The mass layoffs of federal workers on Friday night swept up dozens of scientists with expertise in infectious diseases that have pandemic potential. But after The New York Times reported the dismissals, a federal health official said many of them had been fired in error and would be brought back.

The Human Trafficking Case That Could Hand Government Contractors Blanket Immunity In a little-noticed Supreme Court case, the country’s largest private prison operator argues companies should be shielded from lawsuits when doing the government’s dirty work.

The nation’s largest private prison company is asking the Supreme Court to give federal contractors blanket immunity from lawsuits — including human trafficking claims.

If they win, private contractors could operate with even less accountability than they do now.

For Trump, the cruelty is the point.

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

I recently sat down with three leaders who are part of the @obamafoundation.bsky.social's alumni network to hear more about their work to strengthen democracy in Hungary and Poland. They’re an example for us all. Take a look:

Our job is not to throw 15 million people off health care and double insurance premiums for more than 20 million.

Our job is not to shutter community health centers, nursing homes and rural hospitals.

Our job is to fix a broken system and guarantee health care to all.

"A future president, even dumber than you, will allow Qatar, the country that harbored Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the architect of the plane attacks in NY, PA, and DC today, and whose royal family will help him escape capture by the US, to build a military base on US soil to train Qataris to fly jets."

Seems like a bad idea to fire air traffic controllers when there's already a shortage but what do I know

Curious Reindeer and Charging Polar Bears: The Changing Wildlife at the Top of the Earth Climate change is transforming ecosystems in the far north. An international team of scientists has made some surprising discoveries.

Reindeer, cut off from foraging routes, now graze on seaweed. Polar bears, deprived of the ice platforms to hunt seals, have turned inland, increasingly, clashing with humans.

Scientists are discovering how climate change is transforming ecosystems, making their work more dangerous.

Trump is using our tax dollars to buy Argentine pesos to bail out the country's failing libertarian economy.
