The man running the agency responsible for 340 million Americans' health arrives at 10am, leaves by 4pm, skips his own division chief meetings, and when he does show up - scrolls his phone and gets described by colleagues as "checked out."
Ebola is spreading. Six Americans already exposed. He has not briefed himself with CDC scientists. His response to a reporter asking if he was worried: "Yeah, we're working on it."
The CDC is being run by a health economist with no public health experience who already has another full-time job running NIH. Half of the 27 NIH institutes have no permanent director. The top FDA drug regulator got fired in May - Kennedy found out after it happened.
When measles killed two children in Texas, the CDC official leading the response asked repeatedly to brief Kennedy. He was rebuffed every time.
The person actually running HHS operations is a longtime personal adviser whose policy spreadsheet - more than 50 items - is hidden from the department's own policy team. When Kennedy gets asked a question, his standing answer is "just run that by Stefanie."
This is not a management philosophy. This is a vacancy wearing a title.
HEY MAGA! 🤣
I’ve been saying this from jump. The Reflecting Pool was going to end up looking like a green swamp, not blue. I just didn’t expect it to happen this fast.
One day after it was filled, there’s already a ton of algae.
And let’s be clear: this dude vacuuming the bottom is only part of the process. Without filtration and chemical treatment, the algae is here to stay.
Tonight, a carriage horse collapsed and died in Central Park. We do not yet know this horse’s name, age, history, or what caused their death — but we do know this: no horse should spend their life pulling a carriage through the streets of Manhattan.
We have seen this before. Ryder. Lady. Aisha. Charlie. Smoothie. And now another horse whose life ended on the pavement.
This moment demands more than outrage. It demands action. On Thursday, the City Council will reintroduce Ryder’s Law — legislation to finally transition New York City away from horse carriages and retire the horses to sanctuaries.
That future will include the workers, too. Carriage drivers deserve a real transition plan with stable jobs, protections, and benefits — and we are ready to work with TWU and all stakeholders to make that happen.
But doing nothing is not an option. Another horse is dead on the streets of New York City.
For the horses. For the workers. For New York City.
Pass Ryder’s Law.
“I promise you, God willing, I will attend the next one.”
The Somali World Cup ref turned away by Trump & Stephen Miller’s blatantly racist policies speaks about the experience.
We have absolutely no business hosting this event at the moment. A disgrace. ⚽️(from AP)
Wait, so we were told to take shorter showers, turn off the tap while brushing our teeth, and conserve water at every opportunity… but data centers can show up and use millions of gallons like it’s nothing?
America is back fighting a war we already won because Iran shot down an Apache helicopter with a military we already destroyed, and it's all over nukes they never had and a strait that was wide open.
Is that about right?
#BREAKING: McCaskill: “…who knew that the [White House] Situation Room was going to be the hallowed place where we talked about sex scandals that the president was afraid of coming out in public? And clearly there’s only ONE reason this stuff [#Epstein files] hasn’t been released. It’s not protecting the innocent, it’s not him worrying about the victims, it is just Donald Trump. There’s stuff in this file, and the article even references some of it…It’s weird to be talking about NIPPLES on the Deadline White House show, but they were talking about it in the Situation Room, over Donald Trump’s proclivity to have certain sexual activity with some of these girls…this isn’t going away…as always, the coverup is…worse than the crime…”😳

Seems like President Trump is losing some of his mojo.
Napping at home in the Oval is one thing, but on date night with Dolan at the Garden??? Get that man a Diet Coke.
Sadly none of the cool kid celebs are coming to his $60M Wrestle Mania birthday bash… at least Lindsey G will be there! He loves wrestling.
I’ve heard he might be entering the cage himself. At 6’3 224 lbs he is almost in the exact same shape as the 6’4 238 lbs Jon Jones in his prime. Amazing genes I guess.
Thank goodness he did wake up long enough to end the war in Iran. Again. Again.
And stay tuned for a preview of next week’s episode where once again the war in Iran will be over. Again.
FACT: There's zero evidence that the 2020 election was stolen from Donald Trump, but there's thousands of pages in the Epstein files that provide evidence that Trump raped children.
Dan Rather's right. Every story run by CBS and Bari Weiss next fall should have an asterisk superimposed: "This story was approved by Donald Trump." When a fascist authoritarian regime's in charge of what the American people should know, the country has gone full banana republic.
Trump: "[Graham Platner] is like a pig…He's worse than any human being that's ever run for office."
Trump: "Grab them by the pussy…I did try to fuck her. She was married."
BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Donald Trump's former economic advisor just admitted on Fox News that inflation is being driven nearly exclusively by bad decisions that Donald Trump has made. Wow.
