"Earlier this week Donald Trump called for a second civil war at a US military base. This scenario can be resisted and prevented, if we have the courage to listen, interpret, and act. And this Saturday we will have the occasion to act." snyder.substack.com/p/trumps-civ...

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

🧵 1/ Can we talk about the MMR vaccine? (Since our 🪱 boss won’t...) It doesn’t just fight measles—MMR also protects against mumps and rubella. Rubella was eliminated in the U.S. in 2004 ✅ That means it’s no longer spreading here. Thank you, vaccines 💉

#ICYMI: Unlike several nearby states, North Carolina does not require training for local emergency managers. Yancey County’s emergency manager had taken the job seven years before Helene hit after a long Army career. Yet, he had no emergency management experience.

100 days into office and Trump is still quietly dismantling abortion and reproductive health access... even if it hasn't made headlines. “The administration wants you to think that they are not paying attention to repro… but that is completely untrue."

Trump has set up a new club where CEOs, tech bros, and foreign oligarchs can pay $500,000 to join in order to get access to the Trump Cabinet who will all be there regularly. Just because the grift is all public doesn’t mean this isn’t the most corrupt White House in history.

RFK Jr. says he’ll know what causes autism by September. Someone should tell him NIH—his own department—already funds $300 million per year in autism research, yielding hundreds of studies. Autism has been studied for decades and he’s claiming he will know the cause in 4 months?

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.
