Every policy decision and everything that comes out of that entire HHS department, and all the agencies within, needs to be scrutinized.
Political abuse of psychiatry.
Authoritarians always target mentally disabled people as low hanging fruit, and the definition of mental disability is always flexible. People are rightfully upset about the Minnesota bill by state lawmakers to try to dictate a medical diagnosis of “Trump Derangement Syndrome” toward any Republican detractors.

Cryptocurrency is bad – it’s a vehicle for hurting people.
It’s bad for the environment and the society that all us people have to live. I agree at this point that any politician on board with crypto is siding with the baddies. The AI Coup & Trump’s CEO-Dictator Playbook w/ Gil Duran | MR Live – 2/11/25 The Majority Report w/ Sam Seder Gil Duran: “Any […]

Social security is essential necessary social insurance.
robertreich – march 2, 2025 Elon Musk called Social Security a “ponzi scheme.” This is absolute rubbish. Social Security has paid every benefit owed to every eligible American for 85 years.

Goldbug political disinformation ops from a government agency.
EPA press release: “Administrator Lee Zeldin Finds Gold Bars from EPA at Stacey Abrams’ Connected Group, Biden-Harris Ethical Red Flags” Actual news story: “Lee Zeldin likens Biden energy ‘scheme’ connected to Stacey Abrams to ‘throwing gold bars off the Titanic’” There were no gold bars involved at all that I could find out.

Jesse Dollemore pointed out that Donald Trump is himself teleworking while his administration has been campaigning against telework for federal workers, he’s hanging out at Mar-A-Lago.

There is zero justification for giving taxpayer giveaways to big tech companies and cryptocurrency tycoons to build their data centers. Boondoggle – Big Tech’s AI Blackmail State and local data center extortion is going national. Pat Garofalo […]
The cult of anti-woke.
I realize this is funny. But there’s a dark risk to the mechanism of this type of social contagion.
Harming disabled people was always part of the project.
I’m really concerned because a lot of people I talk to, or see posting in forums or on social media, seem to not realize that disabled people are being targeted by anti-DEI and anti-woke policy. I keep seeing people saying things like that they’re stopping funding for disability services at schools and such because “transition” […]
