#ripGeneHackman Prob my fave Wes Anderson film. Gene is exceptionally great as Royal Tenenbaum. The 1970s sets, imagery, & cultural touchstones are spot on, including the "Go to the Head of the Class" & other board games in the closet. #GeneHackman #WesAnderson #BenStiller youtu.be/aH9c0vmuGAI?...

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

The schedule for making the flu vaccine is strict. Using WHO data (the WHO we just left), vaccine strains are selected at the March FDA mtg that was just canceled. Vaccine manufacturing then begins in June, raising serious doubts the vaccine will be ready next fall.🎁 www.nytimes.com/2025/02/26/u...

Heartening to see the genuine affection for @joyannreid.bsky.social shown by @maddow.msnbc.com @nicolewallace.bsky.social & @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com tonight & their deft weaving of their “despair” at Joy’s firing into a powerful discussion about what we must do to fight fascism.
