Beyond shielding the Epstein files, they’re using this shutdown to implement more of Project 2025.

Senator Patty Murray @murray.senate.gov · 3h

Title X is a program that helps women get things like birth control & cancer screenings.

It was established under RICHARD NIXON. The decision to essentially abolish this office has nothing to do with the shutdown.

This is just another attack on women's basic health care.

HHS Appears to be Cutting Its Entire Family Planning Office

Almost every member of the Office of Population Affairs lost email access and is unable to tell if they were laid off, workers told NOTUS.

Protesting is a First Amendment right. No Kings is a peaceful protest in defense of democracy. Mike Johnson calling it a “hate rally” is pure disinformation He’s trying to seed violence. We see the playbook and we’ll make sure responsibility lands exactly where it belongs.

Mike Johnson on the No Kings Protests: “The Hate America rally that'll happen Saturday…I bet you see pro-Hamas supporters. I bet you you see Antifa types. I bet you see the Marxist in full display, the people who don't want to stand and defend the foundational truths of this republic.”

I sat in the room with Mike Johnson as Epstein’s survivors told their stories. He looked them in the eyes and promised accountability.

Now he’s blocking the vote to release the files. Swear in Congresswoman-elect @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social—now.

Important points about masked agents here by Jim Zirin. Here is another. Trump’s use of agents as pawns in his war against Democrats puts them in danger and makes them less effective in their actual mission to protect the homeland.

Masked law enforcement enters a danger zone beyond US democracy

The images of people snatched off the street by masked armed men in plain clothes smack of the repressive tactics of authoritarian banana republic regimes.

The American people deserve a public health system that puts science before politics.

That's why California and 14 other governors are joining forces to launch the Governors Public Health Alliance to protect communities and guarantee decisions are rooted in data and health.

If men with guns and masks tried to pull me out of my car, I'd fight back. Courts should reject any claims by the government that this is aggression by the person being detained, resisting arrest, or that they're a flight risk.
