An HHS source says admin also RIFed entire Office of Population Affairs last night.
“Not a single staff person to run our nation's family planning program or the evidence-based teen pregnancy prevention program. The Office of Adolescent Health which nested within OPA functionally ceases to exist”

Apparently Sen. Graham died from an aortic dissection. And I can tell you from personal experience that they are one of the most horrifically painful ways to die naturally. The chest and back pain along with the amount of vomiting it causes is horrific.

And they’re completely preventable.
