Pubmed is down. Will muskrat let it come back? Are the Christian right purging all research they find challenging? Is RFK Jr pulling all research on effectiveness of vaccines? Are all pronouns being purged from the articles? The Dark Ages 2.0 started in the US.

1/ View as a veteran and a person who has done work with contractors for USAID. The lies being told about this agency serves two purposes - 1) to lead the US to war and the 2) target internal opposition to dear leader (think the 1918 Sedition Act).

Congress better step up. History is filled with legislatures that are disbanded or “purged” when they are no longer needed by the dear leader. Republicans have already seen in 2021 rumps disciples storming the Capitol seeking their 🩸. Grow a pair before they erect the gallows again!

Listening to press conf on AA crash and hearing Duffy invoke the name of dear leader over and over and promising blame will be assigned makes me distrust anything that “officially” comes out. Betting they go with “DEI” as the reason smh.
