joshtpm.bsky.socialOh dear you’re going to want to read this. Looks like DOGErs were caught exfiltrating NLRB data, likely on unions, for private (seemingly Elony) use. This is must read. What we’ve all suspected. But now details.

maddow.msnbc.com"Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in. The attempts were 'near real-time'... "Whoever was attempting to log in was using one of the newly created DOGE accounts..."

washingtonpost.comThirty-eight of 43 experts cut last month from the boards that review the science and research that happens in laboratories at the National Institutes of Health are female, Black or Hispanic, according to an analysis by the chairs of a dozen of the boards.

repjasmine.bsky.socialScience doesn’t improve by cutting Black, Hispanic, and women experts. But that’s exactly what happened—38 out of 43 removed from NIH boards were just that. And they wonder why trust in institutions is fading.

gtconway.bsky.socialSo the White House story is now: “We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.” The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

maddow.msnbc.comOoops! Ooopsie! Did we do that? We didn't mean to do that. Definitely don't blame us for doing that. Oops! Day one funding freeze Oops! Ebola Oops! Nuclear security workers Oops! Bird flu Oops! PEPFAR Oops! HHS firings And on and on and on... Now this.

meidastouch.comWhat a joke: Trump officials claimed the letter sent to Harvard with a list of demands was a "mistake" sent w/o authorization. Because Harvard defended themselves, the White House announced they were freezing funding and Trump threatened to remove their tax-exempt status anyway. What a shit show.

jfallows.bsky.socialAlmost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago: —Pioneering cancer researcher; —*Arrested* at airport in Boston; —Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana; —"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research. Read it.
