“‘Pretty soon, within the next couple of weeks, everything regarding IT and cyber at the department will start to operationally reach a point of no return,’ one source, who was part of a team that managed these systems at HHS for a decade before being part of the RIF, alleges to WIRED.”

WIRED @wired.com · Apr 19

Much of the IT and cybersecurity infrastructure underpinning the US health system is in danger of a possible collapse following a purge of IT staff and leadership at the Dept. of Health and Human Services, four current and former agency workers tell WIRED.

HHS Systems Are in Danger of Collapsing, Workers Say

The purging of IT and cybersecurity staff at the Department of Health and Human Services could threaten the systems used by the agency’s staff and the safety of critical health data.

Instead of cutting Medicaid, why don't we close corporate loopholes. Tax loopholes, write-offs and other ways of lowering income that allows corporations to avoid taxes! That costs the government billions!

Hands off our Medicaid!

The Trump administration is attacking unions' right to collective bargaining. Liz Shuler, president of the largest federation of unions in the country, explains why this should matter to all of us.

The Trump administration is gutting the rights of federal workers in unions.

Here’s why that matters to all of us.

Trump is shredding our Constitution and tanking our economy. Thom Tillis lacks the courage to stand up to him — I’ll be damned if I’m going to sit on the sidelines.

I’m running to fight for a better future for North Carolinians.

Join our campaign — let’s take back the Senate.

Good morning.

Today is the 80th day that the U.S. President is running a backdoor bribery scheme in which any CEO or foreign oligarch can send him money secretly through his crypto coin scam in exchange for favors.

It's the biggest scandal in the history of the Presidency.

Last year, Republicans voted with Democrats for legislation to ban abusive practices by pharmacy benefit managers, the middlemen of drug-pricing, while increasing transparency in the pharmaceutical supply chain.

Then, Elon Musk opposed it.

in so much news coverage there’s still this sense of propriety and decorum in the face of an outright assault on our civil and human rights. i just want to remind journalists that your politeness will not save you—so you might as well say what you really mean.
