The Damage Report — Week Ending April 5, 2025

  • Summary

  • This week’s Damage Report is brought to you by the letter “O”… as in Oz, outrage, and oh no, what now?!We break down: • Dr. Oz Confirmed: Yes, that Dr. Oz. The wellness huckster turned political appointee. We talk about what this means for public trust, health policy, and the administration’s growing obsession with propaganda over credentials. • Nazi Quote on the House Floor: A member of Congress quoted Hitler — on purpose. We dig into who said it, who challenged it, and what the silence says about our political climate. • The Relationship Ban in China: A new directive bars U.S. citizens in China from dating Chinese nationals. This isn’t just xenophobia—it’s textbook fascism.And of course, we close with “You Can’t Sit Here” — our weekly moment of civic accountability.⸻THE RESISTANCE BRIEF: WHAT YOU CAN DO THIS WEEK 1.
