DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA. Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps. Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems. See how this works?

RFK Jr. thinks that a clinical trial should be done for the entire childhood vaccine schedule. Here’s why that will never happen. 1. You can’t do a randomized trial of something that we already know is safe and effective. There would have to be a placebo group that didn’t get vaxxed. Unethical.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania has indirect rate of 70%, but they probably didn’t want to list that atop Harvard because defunding a children’s hospital might be perceived as problematic. This is devastating

Executive wants to frame the NIH indirects cut as $4B in savings. But given that NIH returns $2.5 on every $1 investment, this would actually cost US economy a net $6 BILLION (per year!). Not to mention the human costs of wrecking education and research sectors and the communities they serve.

Rodgers made it clear that a replacement for Kyogo was a priority. “Given the prior warning Celtic had on Kyogo's departure, the search for his replacement has been "ongoing" and Rodgers wants to come out of the January window with "a stronger squad". #CelticFC

The thread below is about federal datasets that have been taken down. Some websites say they are down for “maintenance” and others are not explained. We @kff.org had downloaded most of these files on our servers and will be able to see what, if anything, is changed if/when the data come back online

The assault on NIH is a test for how the national media covers the Trump admin: Trump is shutting down medical research! That is easy to communicate. Will they treat it as a 5 alarm fire in a way that forces the government to respond, or will they downplay & caveat it?

We cannot make WHO more effective by walking away from it. The decision to withdraw weakens America's influence, increases the risk of a deadly pandemic, and makes all of us less safe.
