In Atlanta, staff at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention gathered to applaud colleagues who resigned following the firing of Director Susan Monarez. With four top officials stepping down, many now feel that the CDC is effectively finished.
this is going to put us back decades...
The MAGA CDC is DUI, for DISASTROUSLY UNQUALIFIED INCOMPETENTS!!!
We need a class action law suit against Congress and mass impeachments for failures to uphold sworn duties representing their respective constituents!
Even if the constitution allowed it you would need a constitution and a DOJ willing to follow it. Instead you have a populace too cowed to even have a General strike
We're going to have to go to Mexico for responsible Healthcare now.
Yeah… this is insane MAGA GOP’s “great again” ‘Murica with no control of deadly diseases 😡
Or weaponized virus's, coulf we be any more vulnerable?
👍👍
We are sick of this cruel corrupt $Bribecoin regime throwing our health, our constitution, our veterans, the 99%, our elderly, our kids’ education, our clean air & water under the bus! Passionate peaceful protests matter. Ripples matter. No one is going to save us. Speak out. NO APATHY. ACT #50501
#ReleaseEpsteinTrumpFiles
Yeah, okay. So the good guys at the CDC are pushed out. I refuse to believe this to be a permanent condition. America is still occupied by good and skilled people. To say that a force for good like this is finished seems inaccurate. But what do I know? Maybe we should just give up and walk away.
If you want to know how this ends look at Germany and Hitler. It doesn't magically get better. It gets worse.
How many Americans will need to die before the regular Americans seriously rebel? I am guessing about 1/10th the US population, but I might be giving us too much credit.
It has to get really shitty before they wake the hell up from their cult.
Unless Congress makes a move to save it, it likely is. This is more of a threat to public health than anything that has happened in my lifetime (75 years).
Call Bernie Sanders Bill Cassidy and Patty Murray. All on the Senator committee that voted for the Director only 4 months ago. We need answers and to stop this dangerous move. We are screwed people. With all these resignations of scientists CDC won’t exist as we knew it. New strain of covid now too.
That was always the goal put forth by the destructive alt-right movement - science and health-based government institutions were intrinsically viewed as another useless and inefficient arm of the deep state, even though 100% of far right lunatics have benefited their entire lives from health science
Of all the things happening (and there is many) this is terrifying to me.
Finished...like the usa
Sanders has demanded a senate hearing on this. Supposed to happen sometime next week?
MAGA is tearing America apart
This is bad. The new covid vaccine eligibility is a joke. I don’t see anything for healthcare workers unless they have at risk conditions as defined by brain worm! I’m not eligible and I was sick for weeks after getting the vaccine! They’re trying to kill us many different ways!
Governors of states that care about public health and protecting our Republic need to hold federal funds back to create agencies to protect public health that mirror the previous missions of federal agencies sabotaged by the Trump Regime…
The Trump Regime no longer needs the federal funds for employees they have fired, the research they have undermined, the public health communications they have manipulated. We need these professionals to continue to serve public health outside of the Regime.
They are trying to destroy our institutions, that can only happen if we allow it.
It is being allowed by our representatives who are not representing we the people but going along with tfg. That is the prob. Lapdogs to destruction.
We need to make these rep they pariah that they are. Don't serve them in restaurants . Turn your backs on them. Find out where the next town halls are if they are having them.
How many republicans have to grow a pair to help us stop this train wreck? Also if HE doesn’t have to follow the rules why are we following them?????
We are all at risk. The leaders of this country do not care about its people. #rfkjrsnaleoils #heroineharryknowsbest #bullsperm
THAT WAS THE FUCKING *POINT*.
We need the CDC to resist, not resign.
Senator Bill Cassidy has the gall to be running a re-election campaign. Post after post on FB and on IG. All the comments people leave are letting him know that no one wants him. His campaign is fronted by something called “National Taxpayers Union.” Be sure and visit and leave a comment or two!
RFK: Skin in the game. bsky.app/profile/opsa... Some have fallen into the trap: "RFK said something sensible a while back; therefore, he must be trustworthy". He did, but he's not.
But isn’t that the place that stores the scary viruses?
It's also the piace that finds cures for the scary virus. We couldn't be any more vulnerable.
All to own the libs. I’d be singing a Connie Francis song if I weren’t so angry and devastated that everyone will suffer their insufferability.
I bet they're keeping the Germ warfare section going. They couldn't do without that.
We need to see all 1.1 million physicians protesting and all 4.3 million nurses protesting and all 330 thousand lab technicians protesting because Heritage and CPAC are fascist capitalists with superstitions out of the Dark Ages.
I applaud those who resigned! They have integrity!
impeach kennedy
@altcdc.altgov.info
And Trump just appointed extremist Thiel fan O'Neil to replace her... smh
RFKJr is fuckin’ INSANE. He needs to be fired and someone who actually understands the science of health put in charge.
I think he feels he'll be a matryr like his father.
Now that I think about it, probably donnies motivation for his staged attempt too.
And this makes America great? This is part of the slow motion genocide they are insidiously commencing
Now, the moron in charge will be able to fill those positions with his know-nothing YES men...
Oh yea, and we’re fucked!
They serve no purpose without sane and qualified medical personnel and scientists and researchers making the important decisions. We literally would be better off with the doctor down the street making these decisions rather than the fucks that the orange prick installed!
"Do not go gentle into that good night"
They might come back if RFK Jr was fired.
This Deplorable Situation Brought To You By Faux News...The Same People Who Gave You The Idiot In The White House....
All part of Don’s Project…..
Something good hopefully will happen to her .
Run for the US senate and win.
I’m not polite enough to be in politics
cannot wait for the next epidemic /s
The next health crisis will become a tragedy because of the incompetent people hired by RFK Jr.
Close it down until JFK, Jr. is gone.
Kind of harsh to those who have and are still trying to dedicate their entire careers to improving the health of Americans.
I know.
Putin approves
He’s approving ALL of it!
Again, we must ask. What does Putin have on Donnie that he would attempt to dismantle the health and safety of the American people as he is currently doing? RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES
Putin no doubt has lots on DJT but likely there's even more to it. Desperate people look for "solutions" from strong men. Some of the Autocrats seem to believe that they will be better able to manipulate people (as in Weimar Germany) if they trash people by cutting ACA, Medicaid, etc.. A theory
Tfg only cares about himself. Everyone else is unimportant or competitor to his power. So he hires inept lapdog people who will do his wishes.
I'm sure it's more embarrassing than illegal... trmp is a 5 year old... what would Putin have him do or say, a childish indulgence that he could never live down?
I believe he has video of trump with a transexual, unaware.
That made me cringe at first but I can see that as incredibly damming if his cult found out.🏳️⚧️
Let's that that were true. Talk about the wildest fucking thing to be the catalyst for all this bullshit.
In the last 50 years, we've encountered: HIV/AIDS SARS Swine Flu MERS Covid-19 These events are like hurricanes: they're going to happen. CDC has been the world's premier front-line battalion to combat pandemics, but, under Trump, everything dies.
politicalamericans.com/rfk-defunds-...
While I understand completely this only gives the Nazis more power to you
It is a tragedy that the brightest, best trained doctors have to leave the jobs that they loved! They refused to go along with “ quack medicine!RFKJR does not have the education to put American lives on the line! The only reason why he was put in this position is because Trump knows even less!
States should start taking action against federal incompetence. Establish state level health bureaus (using emergency powers), activate local militias, and defy federal orders.
Already there are cutbacks to health departments. The Nevada state. System has been hacked since Sunday due to ransomware attack.
My take is they should have stayed and reported to the media what was going on. Then RFK would’ve had to do massive firings. Perhaps maybe then the Republicans would’ve done something.🤷🏻♀️ they would’ve taken me out by force. They did exactly what RFK wanted them to do. Now we have no scientists.
She’s sure putting the Blump between a rock and a hard place. And I love it.
I don’t want applause I want VOTES! I want the people of my state to cross that red line! I want them to flip this MAGA majority STATE Legislation OUT! I want them to DO SOMETHING vs YELLING SOMETHING!
resist.bot/petitions/PQ...
We. Are. So. Screwed. Impeach RFK, Jr.
I hope she files suit!
The CDC is effectively finished until we elect ethical honest people who appoint intelligent scientists. Trump is a total disgrace and laughing stock of the world.
We're going to lose some of the world's best scientific minds. France will welcome them with open arms.
Moderna has a fully operational plant in Quebec now. Canada is no longer at the mercy of the pro death Trump regime. Canada learned lessons from Covid. The US lost their sanity.
I'm afraid we're just getting started. Hold onto your borders!
#FIRERFKJRSTAT
The cdc staff are public servants and swore an oath to the constitution. Most federal employees seem too afraid to comply with their oaths of office. So the cdc bravery should be appreciated.
How far can we go to bring the CDC back?
Diseases will now destroy us.
so they applauded the destruction of the CDC so we can all die faster?
They applauded people with the integrity to protest very publicly what is happening, and what you wouldn't even be aware of without their courage.
you're new to sarcasm, huh
I usually know it when I see it. There is a lot of misinfo around public health and this agency in particular, so I couldn't be sure. Carry on. ✌️
He literally put the stupidest people in the history of stupid in charge of the most important institutions. Hundreds of thousands of people are gonna die.
Project 2025. Take down the administrative state.
Welp, that’s what the trump regime wanted!
At least until this dictator is REMOVED! When sanity returns, we can have our CDC back.
These are people with access to diseases which could kill billions, not the kind to make disgruntled former employees 🙄🙄
How many people will die because of rfkj? Can he be charged with murder?
Nope, incompetence in a cabinet member is not criminal
Guess we’ll need to change those laws. Or a family member of someone he’s killed might take matters into their own hands.
They should be held accountable, legally preferably
Criminally negligent homicide?
Heartbreaking but the brave public servants deserve kudos and more for standing up. I hope they can find decent jobs. We need their expertise!!!
I bet the Republicans are so proud of how they have installed a communistic dictator. Every Republican needs to be voted out of office and we need to try Trump for treason and most of the Republicans too.
Please look up communist versus fascist. We are dealing with fascists.
Science in this country has been set back by 50 years and will need another 100 to recover. I am a scientist I worked myself to death during COVID to save people and this is what we all get fuck trump and JFK and the whole fucking MAGA idiots!
The cures will come from Europe. We will have to pay through the teeth to get them but only if the government allows it. Medical tours to Mexico or Canada may be our only options. My kid graduates in 2.5 years and them I am outta here.
Nope! Canada won't be supplying it to americans. It's part of OUR health care system and americans don't have access to it. We're actually producing it in Canada now for Canadians.
Don't worry the big orange idiot is making big pharma reduce prices by 1500% XD
We can't trust one word from this department going forward.
Kennedy needs to be put down like the rabid dog he is.
The world will need to ban unvaccinated Americans from travelling
Her eyes are fierce. Just saying
Go to California and start one up for smart Americans who don’t wanna die from the hands of a meth addict!
Any word from Senator Cassidy?
He has the gall to be running a re-election campaign. Post after post on FB and on IG. All the comments people leave are people letting him know that no one wants him. His campaign is fronted by something called “National Taxpayers Union.” Be sure and visit and leave a comment or two!
Of course not. Nothing from president Pedo either. He's been mysteriously MIA for throwing last 2 days.
"These high profile departures will require oversight by the HELP Committee," Cassidy wrote, referring to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, which he chairs."
If you live in one of these districts, PLEASE go vote in the special election ~
Yea, they kinda swarmed in and took over so yea… bye legitimacy of the CDC
That's the plan
It sure seems that the scientific community is in large part rejecting RFK Jr. and Trump. They are having none of it. They’ll need to figure out a transition plan for the stockpile of pathogens, but a departure en masse would send a serious message to everyone that this is no time to screw around
Trump want's to destroy all organizations which can't be bought.
People are going to wish they had the government they used to hate. 💩's about to get so real for them.
Yeah, kinda sad that nobody thought to work as hard as they did to send Joe Biden out to pasture to Trump
People are about to remember why we haven't had polio around for some time....amongst other fun things.
Horrible but you are right.
Proves Covid wasn't a weaponized virus from China or it would be happening again right now. We couldn't be anymore vulnerable.
I'm not sure you realize how vulnerable. Covid is still raging. Washington state has an 11.8 percent infected population. Now, we'll have less vaccinated in our communities, which will blow it up further! Just one example.
Brian, can you post on this please?
My daughter is a nurse. But she is in her 20's. As yet, she doesn't know if she will get free access (health coverage) to vaccines so she doesn't get sick & vector disease to her patients.
Wow
This virus mutates how many times a year?
What a freaking shame. One of the world's top scientific and medical agencies gutted by a moron. Ah, now you're asking "which moron?" So many morons, so little science. Again, what a freaking shame.
It’s worse than just that. We’ll now have unscrupulous, incompetent individuals in control of the deadliest diseases of this world who can now begin working on weaponization. Maybe they’ll be stupid enough to kill themselves in the process, but even Hitler had geniuses working for him.
Perfect
Rather bad for us and US
Keep fighting the tRump Regime! Make them work hard everyday!
Why again has this maniac, RFK, not been fired?
***Multiple 2024 Election Manipulation & Fraud court cases are popping up ALL OVER the country and not enough people are talking about it*** #ViewTheOriginalPost, I attached #MultipleVideos in the #OriginalVidCommentSection. Current affected states are #NY #PA #NC #AZ #NV #GA #VA #SHARE #WATCH 🇺🇸⚖️🗽
No more CDC. Qanon and Putin rejoice.
😡😡😡
The Senate must put the boot on RFKj’s neck and get these folks rehired. Or push him out of a window or something..
The Walking Dead becomes a reality.
Who did RFK and Trump make Acting CDC Director? A guy who wants to profit from selling organs. bsky.app/profile/jswe...
This should work out well.
Ebolia still exists as well as a host of deadly pathogens, can't wait until the people who cheered the destruction of cdc, pulling back from WHO, and voted for this reap the fafo.
Canadians are working on the Ebola vaccine now.
Everyone seems to think at-home remedies are better than science. That "they" are doing this or that. Let's see your garlic-infused water get rid of measles or strep throat, eh?
None of them has ever met a person who had polio or lost a sibling to measles. They don't know that strep can kill. Worse, still... the very idea of doing everything you can to PREVENT ILLNESS is just dumb to them.
In several states ivermectin is available without a prescription . People in the south think it cures cancer
They would.
High doses of vitamin A will cure, or was it prevent, measles; that is until you find out vitamin A can be toxic. Grab your 5th, err....your bottle, of Uncle Robert's Miracle Cure-All Tonic. Oh, and make sure you're popping your unregulated vitamins and herbal supplements.
If it don't kill ya, it should cure ya, right?!
Next thing you know RFK will be touting a shot of whatever to cure being gay! Hahahaha 🤣
Thanks for the laugh! I was not expecting that. Hopefully it will be yummy, like chocolate.
Or like my husband: good to the last drop🤣
Exactly!
Why are such incompetent quacks (RFK jr) in position of decision making? President appointment and Congress approved... Is our nation really this lost.? Yes, ....
This is so very, very bad for all of us.
Effectively finished - for now. This can all come roaring back if we dominate the midterms, impeach him for treason (sweeping all of them out) and revise our constitution and laws and regs
We had 4 years and didn't do a fucking thing! Flip it, Trump DOJ would have had Biden in prison in 30 days. Probably executed for treason after 1/6.
The media just brushes this news aside, and reports it as if it's the weather. The population has no idea that we are in a full blown fascist dictatorship. They aren't going away peacefully. Do they act like they are afraid of being voted out?
They are useless tits . A third grader would ask more intelligent questions.
bsky.app/profile/iwil...
😪
Adolf Trump is killing us
😡😡😡
How sas and pathetic that public health is to be gutted and life expectancy to drop due to idiots running the agencies….
This is horrible what happened to her!
Apparently RFK Jr. is even worse than everyone thought, and everyone thought he had no qualifications at all. He is a public health risk and should be impeached. To hell with firing him or asking him to resign… Congress… get rid of him NOW! #ImpeachRFKjr
There needs to be an attorney fund, so these people can fight these firings in court instead of resigning. Why make it Easy for the dictator, like CBS does.
Such a shame. This is a loss for the entire world.
And so much more, cancer research cuts, Grants to Universities, eliminating USAID........
What did I read somewhere that China is thisclose to a vaxx for prostate cancer? And we're headed back to the Stone Age because of a cult that doesn't believe in science, and Congress is too scared to do anything except suck Trump's balls.
💙🇺🇸🌊🙋🏻💯🏳️🌈🤞💙
National security risk right there. Impeachment worthy
😢😢😢
Why is everyone so shocked? A wealthy, inherited-power white man who cheats on taxes and wives, exploits children, rapes, and commands others…that’s not new. Historically, it’s their M.O.
RFK Jr. says, "Mission accomplished." He's also selling t-shirts that say: I ❤️ Polio.
The man now anointed to run CDC is a venture capitalist with no medical background. He has once said something like FDA shouldn't take time to review drugs, it should be up to the people to decide to take risks & that human organs should be bought & sold so there is more access. (Guess to the rich!)
The Republican jokers in the Senate were warned what RFK Jr. would do, but a mean tweet by Trump meant more to them than their constituents dying.
Dystopian madness. Disallow lower classes from affordable healthcare: ⬆️ sickness and death ⬆️ organ 'donations' to pay for medical bills ⬆️ organ supply = ⬇️ organ prices ⬆️ lifespan for the rich, 🖕the poor All because half the country believed Dump was the better choice to lower the price of eggs.
@gatesfoundation.bsky.social @mcuban.bsky.social you need to set up an independent organization of scientists and doctors to help save the planet from deadly diseases let loose by RFKjr. and TrumpFascism. @obamafoundation.bsky.social @sanders.senate.gov Who Else
💔
🤬🤬🤬
We live in terrifying times.
Like I said, any of my kids gets struck by some preventable disease and I'm coming after some repuke with a clawhammer.
How about when were attacked by a weaponized virus with no one to fight it.
Yeah, that's where herd immunity comes in, eveybody dies except those those with native immunity. Hope there are enough left to bury the dead. Could be a genetic terminus if no native immunity. Thank you, Jesus.
No Native Immunity to measles, mumps, influenza, covid, polio,......
Talk to American Indians.
They are not you moron. There are several muscles, tendons, instep blacks don't have.
Oh my God. You're an f-ing racist. Do society a favor and get a tutor to give you basic lessons in understanding science. Don't attempt it alone.
You mean there's another level above my PhD? Imbecile.
Pardon me, you're an EDUCATED racist! Doesn't change your ignorance.
I'm not sure people fully understand what exactly herd immunity is. What it is not is a permanent cure.
I like this idea. There’s all the talk about CA having one of the largest economies in the world… seems like a good investment.
How sad they can't stay out long term. This must be terrible for them.
Uncle Vlad is pleased.
Follow Canadian health officials
I know what to do. I'm worried about access and costs.
Matter of fact move all your data and info and research before they make your hard work gone. The State of Nevada computer systems have been down with a ransomware attach since Sunday.
Attack not attach.
Unbelievable
Resigning is not a damn solution. This is exactly what they want. 🤦
I stand with Dr. Monarez
Blue states should hire them using the funds they refuse to send to the dictator run fed
I’ll bet this was Heritage Foundations plan all along.
We who give a shit about our own health and the health of others are fucked! #FuckRFKjr #FuckTrump
Ok. Time for the billionaires to step in and support and finance these organizations. Separate from the Dictator- save our children !!! @billgates.bsky.social @govpritzker.illinois.gov Let’s please get smart !!
On the one hand, it’s great to see resistance to this fascist takeover of public health. On the other hand, I still feel like this is exactly what RFK’s brainworm wanted.
Nobody with a full functioning brain is going to work with RFK jr.
Aaand how's that bird flu thing coming along?
Great means different things to different people. I just didn’t know we would be so off.
Sickening. The GOP is a death cult. I cannot think of any other way to look at this.
There is a mass serial killer on the loose in NIH. Be on the lookout where he sinks his knife.
Trump been trying to end CDC like he did in 2020 when he got rid of all the medical supplies Obama stocked up on
Do you know who is finished? Not just the CDC… All Americans! We will all suffer under Kennedy’s ideology.
The CDC, which used to be the gold standard in the world not so long ago, has had its reputation destroyed and those scientists who resigned made the right decision to get out of brain worm's cesspool. They're well regarded and sure to find good jobs anywhere in the world.
Likely every one of them will be fired...
Please start your own subscription agency. I will pay to have up to date health information and access to vaccines.
...just what trump wanted. He only wants to push his fake good news.
This is SO fucked up. Why are we letting this fascist regime put all of our lives at risk?
Turns out there's nothing we can do to stop it. Not at this point, anyway.
There is, but no one wants to have The Big Conversation™
I'll say it. OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT.
Saying it isn't doing it A general strike can grind this regime to a halt if people committed, and at this point that's probably the last actual option we have besides civil war
generalstrikeus.com Sign on line or print and mail an anonymous strike card.
I wish I could but my job is to look after disabled (carer)
There are plenty of other ways you can still help, even without stopping your important work!
Everyone has a place.
You can sign a strike card. The movement needs 11 million people to sign up for a strike so that a strike can be called. It doesn't necessarily mean you are obligated to show up. I encourage retirees to sign as well. We all pay taxes. 💪
I have to believe somebody somewhere is having THAT conversation.
I have to believe THOSE somebodies are not the ones you want to be having THAT conversation.
Yes there is, but it involves violence. Like it always does.
For the safety and comfort of pedophiles of course, what else?
The world... American's don't sit still and people moving through our country from one hemisphere to the next are also vulnerable to whatever diseases we choose to cook up.
The bigger question: where is all the money going?
Something needs to replace it! That would be good use of some billionaires money to finance that.
