The information landscape in the United States has reached a crisis point. Billionaires and corporations are using the media outlets they control to curry favor with Trump. The only way to fight back is to build out independent media. popular.info/subscribe muskwatch.com/subscribe

This WaPo piece has something valuable inside: the names of some of the grownups running DOGE behind the scenes. The Incels are a distraction. These people are real. It'd be helpful for people in the agencies to ID anyone from DOGE for...reasons. www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...

In its totality what's happening at HHS & NIH is a Musk/Trump effort to shutdown almost all cancer cure research in the US. No more new cures. Cancer's brand is really in the dumps. It polls terribly. This is a political argument that is straightforward to make. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/nih-a...

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it. Strong power move for Team Cancer.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges. This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

This morning, Gov. Kathy Hochul was saying removing Mayor Adams after he struck a blatantly corrupt bargain with Trump and his DOJ didn’t feel very democratic. This evening, she heard the US Attorney General announce charges are being filed against her.

Biopharma companies and CEOs are keeping their heads down at their own peril. They should speak up about what’s happening to the NIH and other science agencies before it’s too late. Silence gives consent. And no one should consent to this.

It is not ideal that the "is a constitutional crisis looming" conversation is centered on Trump vs. courts when the existent crisis — Trump vs. Congress — has been almost completely resolved by Congress's capitulation. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
