This is an enormous blow to health—mRNA vaccines have been good not just for Covid but cancers. It's also a huge driver of biomedical research and industry. Guess all that science, and revenue will go to other countries http://www.mskcc.org/news/can-mrn…

There's been a lot of discussion lately around mRNA vaccines.Learn about them from mRNA researcher & Nobel Prize winner Prof. Katalin Karikó. Science, solutions & solidarity.

Hey congrats to everyone who took the soft anti-vaccine stance of ā€œmRNA vaccines aren’t 100% effective and aren’t useful against future variants so the mRNA vaccines aren’t good, we need to mask foreverā€, your stance has been noted by RFK Jr. to kill mRNA technology in America.

Trump goes easy on Russia, El Salvador and Israel

WOW. The Trump admin is rewriting reality, erasing accountability for any nation with close ties to Trump — including Russia, El Salvador, and Israel.The El Salvador report changes are egregious, totally erasing well-documented abuses. And the impact will be severe. Quick 🧵.

By striking out any reference to human rights abuses in El Salvador or persecution of LGBTQ+ individuals in Russia, the Trump admin is firmly placing its finger on the scale and trying to get judges and asylum officers to deny asylum for some countries and for disfavored groups.

Trump’s unconstitutional plan for an additional census

I’m sure the GOP Supreme Court will let him violate the law again.

The Fourteenth Amendment is clear: the US Census shall count the "whole number of persons" living in each state. Trump wants to violate the constitution and rig the rules to advance his agenda.

Congressman Don Beyer (@beyer.house.gov) 2025-08-07T18:38:30.896Z

Whatever his intention, Trump lacks the authority to order changes to the Census. http://www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/…

Just from a logistical standpoint it is not feasible to conduct a "new" mid-decade census with accuracy. To give a sense of the scale of what is required, preparations are already underway for the *2030* census. This will add chaos to the Census Bureau and degrade the accuracy of the 2030 census

Bluesky post and YouTube videos on the Delco Pooper

I regret to inform everyone that there is a woman now known as The Delco Pooper

We had some burning questions for accused "Delco Pooper" Christina Solometo, including about her tantalizing OnlyFans account.

In his latest column, KFF’s @drewaltman.bsky.social analyzes years of KFF polling on vaccines in light of the current controversies about them. The real problem, he says, is polarization and misinformation have eroded confidence in what’s true or not. on.kff.org/3HlGRaF

It's incredibly weird that folks have convinced themselves that the Covid vaccines – which had an ~82^% take up rate – were unpopular.

SSA field offices have lost 20% of their staff

This is terrible. I know. I worked there many years ago.

BREAKING: The Trump administration has pushed out 20% of the staff at Social Security offices.Often the most experienced, highly skilled staffers.Seniors, people with disabilities, and families are paying the price.

Social Security Works (@socialsecurityworks.org) 2025-08-07T14:25:43.156Z

Then you have field office staff answering national 800 number calls which makes this even worse.

Trump doesn’t care about bipartisanship

Almost six and a half months into his new term, President Donald Trump has yet to host Democratic leaders or convene a meeting with the bipartisan congressional leadership.Compared to past presidents, that’s incredibly unusual.
