Public health experts agree that there is no urgent need for free tests to be sent to American households now, given low levels of covid-19. But they said keeping the tests on hand is an insurance policy in case the virus evolves to cause a large outbreak again.

Nationally, the wastewater viral activity level for COVID-19 is currently high.

This paragraph from @washingtonpost.com's reporting on Trump potentially ending free COVID tests is factually incorrect.

According to CDC wastewater data, COVID levels are currently HIGH.

COVID still causes serious illness and death for too many. People still need free tests!

The resistance will bring down Musk and Trump. Congress, wake up before your power is gone. The GOP begging Trump to release money to their states is pathetic—stand up to this tyranny. Congress controls the purse strings.

Absolutely wild to be watching this mayhem play out in real time.

The White House: (iii) assess the prevalence of and threat posed by the prescription of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, stimulants, and weight-loss drugs;

This was one of RFK Jr.’s first orders after being sworn in.

Just an astonishing denial of science and will cause so much pain to the 45 million Americans facing mental health challenges.

We knew it.

Some federal employees who accepted Trump’s buyout offer are now being notified that their buyout has been denied, and they are being terminated instead.

This tax season, we're here to remind you about TurboTax's 20-year fight to stop Americans from filing their taxes for free.

More people need to be talking about RFK Jr. wanting to take away SSRIs and send those of us who are AU/ADHD into "concentration camps" to detox. This is terrifying. Using neurodivergent and disabled people to fill your work "camps" is yet another repeat from the old 1940s Germany playbook.

FYI was a 3.8 in Malibu.

At the direction of RFK Jr., America’s newly confirmed secretary of Health and Human Services, the CDC has suddenly fired nearly 1,300 employees in a single day. 10% of America’s vital team of health experts — considered global leaders in disease control — have been axed.

Although HHS…

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

Education Department employees have been placed on leave for attending diversity training. Meanwhile, Republicans have introduced a bill to eliminate the Department of Education.

i think an important thing for people outside the US to understand is that elon musk seized control of the government today and most americans don’t even realize it happened.

I’m very concerned that a fascist regime is taking complete control and our elected officials are just sitting by and watching it happen as if they are powerless to stop it.

Hi! I’m Sophie, an elder millennial figuring out life after becoming disabled by Long Covid in 2022. I’m a writer and artist, and I post (and repost) about ways to stand up for the rights of people in our communities, highlight ways to spread awareness, and share memes. Thanks for tagging along.

Elon Musk staff has been caught installing hard drives inside the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the Treasury Department, and the General Services Administration (GSA).

A lot of you make jokes about guillotines but few of you have been getting your woodworking and metalworking skills up. Get those callouses made, babes.

I know the rain is coming but please still mask when outside until we have clear data that the air isn’t dangerous anymore…

Please stay safe, people of the Castaic area. I hate how we are going through this again just two weeks later.
