What a Wrongful Death Lawsuit Reveals About America’s Largest Oxygen Provider When an at-risk sleep apnea patient needed his breathing machine replaced, Lincare, a $2.4 billion behemoth with a decadeslong history of regulatory and legal problems, acted slowly. The result was disastrous.

NEW: After Vernor’s breathing machine stopped working, a Lincare representative promised his mother a company respiratory therapist would be in contact “until we get him a new machine.”

But she didn’t hear from Lincare until 7 days later, the same day Vernor died.

"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

I feel like I’m going to have to be calling Congress on the regular. What happened today is embarrassing on the world stage. We don’t treat allies like this. We don’t treat civil servants like we have been. Shameful and disgusting bullying behavior.

Yup.

Musk: Federal workers must answer email on what they did last week or lose jobs Federal workers began receiving emails Saturday asking them to describe what they did last week.

Federal employees already account for their work with their supervisors. We should be thanking them for their service to our country, not jerking them around. Disgusting.

U.S. Representative Greg Casar speaking to constituents at a town hall event in Austin, Texas.

This afternoon I attended @repcasar.bsky.social’s town hall here in Austin. Our district shared stories of civil servants from tax examiners to VA healthcare workers, all experiencing the wrath of the current administration and losing their jobs. We are coming together to stand up for democracy. 🇺🇸✊🏽

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

The Stonewall Inn and The Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative are outraged and appalled by the recent removal of the word 'transgender' from the Stonewall National Monument page on the National Park Service website. This blatant act of erasure not only distorts the truth of our history, but it also dishonors the immense contributions of transgender individuals - especially transgender women of color - who were at the forefront of the Stonewall Riots and the broader fight for LGBTQ+ rights. SIGBI followed by a next arrow

The Stonewall Inn released a response to the National Parks Service removing the word transgender from the park outside of the Inn. A great reminder that we have to look after each other

Trump says the federal workforce is too big. Here's what to know about its size. The federal government is the nation's largest employer, yet the size of its workforce hasn't kept up with U.S. population growth, experts say.

Certainly worth the read. Civil service employees are being cut everyday.

I hope you all are holding up okay. I know a good deal of people who have been negatively affected by the change in leadership here in the states. Many ppl dont fully grasp the impact that’s taking place to ppl’s livelihoods, esp those in public service. I’m sorry. This truly sucks.

After reviewing all the MLS kits, I’d argue that this is one of the worst release years.

Feels like a train wreck every single day. Smdh

With no evidence, Trump blames DEI for midair collision of passenger jet and Black Hawk helicopter. Trump criticizing diversity as 67 people died and search and recovery efforts continue in the Potomac River.

To introduce causality of a plane crash on someone not having the right color of skin or the highest standards because of DEI policy is ass backward and racist.

This is such a weird timeline we’re about to embark on.

and soak that in. Is it actually true? Or is this methodically designed to influence your opinion on something? Use your brain. Pay attention. Continue the conversation offline.

Hey. You’re gonna be okay. We’re all gonna be okay. But you do need to pay attention to what’s going on. If you haven’t before because it’s overwhelming, I get it. But we don’t really have a choice anymore. When apps tell you that someone is going to find a solution and make everything better, pause

Oops
