RFK Jr. ordered the NIH’s Integrated Research Facility in Frederick to stop all research on serious infectious diseases yesterday at 5:00 PM. They study pathogens like Ebola there. You may be familiar with it from The Hot Zone. www.wired.com/story/hhs-ni...

SCOOP: HHS has been gutted leaving critical health systems in danger of collapsing overnight. And no one's in charge: “Those in charge are AWOL. I’m doing nothing productive. This ship has no captain whatsoever, and I’m playing in the band while the Titanic sinks.” www.wired.com/story/depart...

The whole point is to ruin farms…a fire sale on farmland that can be sold to corporate farms who can pollute the water and air with impunity. There will be no one left in these communities to demand these corporations be regulated or pay taxes.

It is a sad day for the legal industry. Paul Weiss, didn't just bend a knee, it set a new standard for shameful capitulation. This is a stain on the firm, every one of its partners, and the entire legal profession.

🚨NEW: This is horrific. Musk & DOGE closed the specialist unit at Yale tracking down Ukrainian children kidnapped & stolen by Russia. HOWEVER, it now emerges the entire database may have been DELETED, destroying years of research needed to find missing children. If so, there should be arrests.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House. We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication. They own what happens next.

Musk is an absolutely depraved and evil man. Defending Stalin, Hitler, and Mao in order to justify firing VA nurses and park rangers? How does one come to hate civil servants so much? Insane, and dangerous.

I don’t understand why the president is allowed to spout nonsense about colonizing another country and the 25th amendment isn’t being invoked in addition to all the other horrors this is insane. It’s absolutely insane. It isn’t funny or even weird.

Holy shit! You’ve got to see this town hall. Republicans are starting to get torn apart by their own constituents. Rep. Rich McCormick: “You don’t think I’m going to stand up for you?” Woman in the crowd: “You need to stand up.” Another woman: “Don’t bend over.” 🔥

NY law firm Sullivan & Cromwell is enthusiastically joining Donald Trump's effort to undermine the justice system. It’s sad to see a firm clients have long turned to for counsel on how to comply with the law rendering itself into an instrument for promoting lawlessness, I diacuss in PN.
