The sudden dismissal of FOIA staff at CDC, FDA, and NIH will worsen existing backlogs and limit the public's ability to examine recent agency actions and get important health safety data.

The sudden dismissal of public records staff at health agencies threatens government accountability

Public records requested under the Freedom of Information Act have helped shape health policy and keep the government accountable – but recent staff cuts may make this impossible.

Patently obvious Trump has sold out to Russia on every level. He's destroying USA from the inside out - like a human Ebola. He must really despise America and Americans and see their only value as a means to his own financial, power-hungry ends.

The only question is how far does he have to go b4 America and the democratic world stop him?

He has broken rules since the day he entered high office without handing over his IRS tax records.

He tried cheating in the 2020 election by calling for votes; he invited a mob to "fight like hell" on 6th Jan; he failed to call for support to stop the storming of the Capitol - ALL ACTS OF TREASON.

He is a proven multiple felon.
Hes acting AGAINST the US Constitution with impunity.

Hes fired 1000s of Govt staff and attacked the judiciary, appointing friends and cronies to high office.
Hes now putting America in danger in the global arena by siding with a one-time Cold War enemy.

Is it now possible he gives money, hardware and (god forbid) personnel to Russia to fight Ukraine??
No??
A step too far and too improbable??
Yet all the above πŸ‘† wouldve been unthinkable 20yrs ago.

We can't rule anything out anymore. But where now is the shifting red line that Trump has overstepped so many many many times?

He is pushing the world to economic destruction by upending trade, leaving us all vulnerable to bio-hazard threats after dismantling CDC, destabilising global govts by withdrawing USAID, denying climate change and halting research and the drive to Net Zero. All global threats to us ALL.

WHEN DOES SOMEONE ACTUALLY SAY "NO MORE" TO HIM ?
