“…unvaccinated adults remain relatively unmoved by the recent news of the omicron variant with a large majority of unvaccinated adults (87%) saying the news about the omicron variant does not make them more likely to get vaccinated.” 🙃 | via @KFF kff.org/coronavirus-co…
Less Than Half Of White Adults, Republicans, Unvaccinated Are Worried About Getting Sick From COVID-19 | via @KFF #Hubris #PresumedInvincibility #Cult45* kff.org/coronavirus-co… 
Omicron’s ripping through America (especially in red/purple states) because refusing masks/vaccines/lockdowns has become a proxy for White Republican identity. They’re peer pressuring themselves into catching/spreading Covid, overdosing on Ivermectin and dying of Whiteness.
1/12 An open letter to The Christian Left, a “progressive online ministry” that is inflicting organized white violence against Lace Watkins, a long-time follower of @TheChristianLft and renowned Black Christian #activist bit.ly/316sAq8 #shareblackstories
2/12 Her transgression? Being a Black Christian woman who dared to question the white male co-founders of The Christian Left for profiteering off the death of Congressman #JohnLewis by appropriating his legacy of #goodtrouble.
3/12 The Christian Left refuses to #listentoblackwomen. They ban Lace and erase all of her comments. They silence anyone who kindly invites them to consider how their behavior is at odds with their stated values, which they call "concern trolling" rather than #goodtrouble.
Trump issued an EO turning Administrative Law Judges from independent civil servants into political appointees. Impartiality will be replaced by loyalty. Qualified candidates replaced by campaign donors. Unqualified judges mean unfair rulings. #FairCourts chcoc.gov/content/execut…
Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) were appointed under the Administrative Procedures Act (APA). Federal agencies like DoL, SSA, DEA, DoA, have numerous ALJs. They were hired by OPM based on qualifications and under the APA had substantial decision-making independence. No more.
There are 2,000 ALJs they adjudicate thousands of regulatory disputes, serving as fact-finders and decision-makers. This is devastating for workers and regular people looking for a fair hearing. Trump will be able to compel ALJs to follow his deregulatory directions or be fired.
