There’s just so much: the victory of a new political talent, the loss of an old tyrant, the possibilities of alliance & positive strategizing, the hope for a more just future, the cracking of the last generation’s stranglehold on power. Also the joy and force of Tish James! Listen to her voice!

For-profit insurance companies like UnitedHealthcare are defrauding taxpayers out of $80 billion a year. HHS Secretary Kennedy claims he wants to "clean up corruption" while he is doubling taxpayer dollars to these companies. That sounds like the real "waste, fraud, and abuse."

Michael Fanone defended our Capitol on January 6. He showed his bravery. Now, it’s time for us to do the same.

When a mob was barreling down on him, Michael Fanone stood strong to defend our country. Fanone embodies the American spirit of bravery. While elites hide and kiss up to Trump, be like Mike — be brave.

It’s hard to overstate how angry rank and file Dems are at the Dem establishment right now. And if I were a self-preservationist incumbent I would take note.

ProPublica identified 20 segregation academies in Mississippi that received almost $10 million over the course of six years through a state-funded program. At least eight opened with an early boost from state-funded vouchers in the 1960s. (Published Nov. 2024)

Our effort to try to do something for [cystic fibrosis (CF)] started as a basic science enterprise. That was a hard slog back in the 1980s. Nobody would have supported except NIH. Now, 30 years after that discovery, young people with CF get to plan for retirement instead of an early funeral.

Deeply reported piece on what's happening in Kashmir: New laws permitting Indian citizens to vote, apply for jobs, and buy land in Kashmir can only be seen as a step toward turning it into a Hindu-majority state.

THIS JUST HAPPENED: Brad Lander walked through the fire, got burned, and came back with a fucking gasoline can. ICE arrested him — now he’s escorting migrants right past them, again. Most politicians wouldn’t show up. He showed out.

🧪 Key message - take any chance as a professional with expertise to speak up on inaccuracy or disinformation relating to your own field. That might mean collegiate discussion about new papers, or calling out PR nonsense, or something bigger. But acting is crucial.

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

In grand scheme of NIH mandate, it's small. NIH, outside of clinical trials, serves as a quaternary referral center for complex cases. This has stopped in my experience. Two different centers that I've collaborated with in the past aren't picking up the phone.

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.
