💉🌍 Gavi's Vaccine Program Saves Lives A new study found that Gavi’s vaccine funding boosted coverage by up to 20% for newer vaccines and reduced child mortality by 1 per 1,000 births - saving ~1.5M lives at ~$9K per life. 🔗 www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=... #GlobalHealth #Vaccines #SciComm 🧪

The American Association of University Professors is organizing a concerted response to the NIH/NSF/OMB funding pause as it impacts our intellectual pursuits. 🧪 They have a form where scholars, particularly those who are in unions, can list impacts anonymously: airtable.com/appMQQqeVbCY...

Would be great if the reporters who turned Joe Biden's dog biting a USSS agent into the crime of the century could be bothered to report on an unelected billionaire's employees basically taking over the HR function for 3 million federal workers.

Trump promised to be a dictator on day 1 He’s carried that forward though the entire week! His illegal purge of inspectors general is the latest example I explained @insidewithpsaki.msnbc.com @msnbc.com

When guarding an access point with a partner for a secure site with multiple Presidents in attendance, my Sergeant informs me it's "not professional" to greet those attempting to cross with, "one of us only tells the truth, the other only lies!"

Thank you Jack Smith You didn't have to but you did. Thank you www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

I made Duckworth laugh the other day. After the certification of votes on 1/6/25 while riding the Senate tram, we were in the same car. Someone was telling her "They canceled 3,684 flights today [due to weather]!" and I leaned in with my Groucho cigar and said "Yeah, and that's just out of DCA!"

There is no better way to honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. than to continue the work of resistance he and others began. Never give up fighting for the nation you want to live in and for the justice you want to see. Now more than ever, remain hopeful and choose the path of positive action. #MLKDay

BREAKING: We're suing DOGE along with a diverse group of organization to get it to follow the law or shut down

Always reminded how much of the "crisis" on the southern border could be resolved by simply having enough judges to process asylum claims in a timely manner.

TARIFFS ARE TAXES ON DOMESTIC CONSUMERS.

This is another section of Jack Smith report that was sourced to the immunity brief that Smith fought hard to release in October but was largely ignored by journalists.

“In seven days, we will be saddled with this convicted felon who has the instincts of an arsonist…Let’s remember to support the firefighters, real and figurative.” www.americaamerica.news/p/the-instin...

BREAKING: Merrick Garland has released volume one of the Jack Smith report www.documentcloud.org/documents/25...

1. CAUGHT ON ZILLOW Popular Information has identified dozens of LA landlords who jacked up rents by as much as 100% after the fires started and thousands of people lost their homes. California's price gauging law prohibits increasing rent by more than 10% during a state of emergency

In an alternate world, Trump would be headed to trial and facing conviction for inciting J6. "Indeed, but for Mr. Trump's election and imminent return to the Presidency, the Office assessed that the admissible evidence was sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction at trial.” — Jack Smith report

This billboard says it all.

What's wonderful is it makes the roads better for everyone while raising revenue.

“The Post reviewed documents from 23 police departments where detailed records about facial recognition use are available and found that 15 departments spanning 12 states arrested suspects identified through AI matches without any independent evidence connecting them to the crime…”

Tom Homan, Trump’s incoming border czar, is pitching the idea of “a hotline to report undocumented immigrants suspected of crimes.” And you know some motherf*ckers will gladly use it, justified or not. Folks better prep to carry proof of citizenship, because racial profiling will run wild.

Oh nothing. Just a Russian women bride / dating / companionship service using pics of Trump, Ron DeSantis, and Rudy Giuliani at Mar-a-Lago to promote their services.

I've seen a child with tetanus, I've treated near fatal infections after chicken pox, and I've pronounced children dead from COVID whose parents refused to have them vaccinated. We have lost our minds... and are about to lose so many of our precious children.

So like…

Whoever this is, they’re tragically right.

NEW: After reviewing leaked documents, we have found UnitedHealth is strategically limiting access to a treatment for thousands of children with autism across the country in order to cut costs. Advocates say the company’s strategy may be illegal. www.propublica.org/article/unit... 👇

Terrifying thread. The police SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO LIE

New report: The Justice Department Inspector General found NO evidence the FBI had undercover agents around the Capitol on Jan. 6. This further undermines debunked right-wing conspiracies about the riot.

We need a healthcare system that puts patients, not profits and payouts to shareholders, first.
