You know how the Trump admin blocked publication of the CDC's weekly morbidity and mortality report, which until now had been released every single week since 1952? Turns out last week's report would have included 2 important new studies on bird flu transmission. kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

Also, realizing that literally as Zuck was going on Rogan whining that Biden staffers had cursed and threatened Meta, he was in the middle of negotiating to pay Trump $25 million to be let "into the tent" two months after Trump promised to put him in prison for life. www.techdirt.com/2025/01/16/r...

I guess it's time to start tracking this again. Left, F&F, Mike Waltz says the NO attack (by a pro-ISIS U.S. citizen) shows shows the need to "close the border, secure our sovereignty." 8:46 a.m. Right, Trump, 9:08 a.m.
