In a small trial, nearly half of pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine had no signs of relapse after three years. Dr. Vinod Balachandran from @mskcancercenter.bsky.social joins us to discuss the results and what they could mean for cancer treatment.

It’s a cult.

REMEMBER: Next Friday, February 28. NOT 1 PENNY SPENT. We can do this. I'm IN, are you? 👋💙

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

When Rupert Murdoch’s rags turn on you …

BREAKING: Donald Trump just fired General CQ Brown (left) and has replaced him with the less qualified Lt. General Dan Caine. DEI isn’t a problem if you’re white.

The 'find out' phase is here.

How does firing Americans help make America great again? Cutting 5-8% of the workers is unproductive and harmful to our economy and society. This is just simply reckless and unsustainable. www.cnn.com/2025/02/21/p...

So. It has officially happened. I have been officially let go from my position at CDC. I wasn’t a probationary employee. I had stellar performance reviews every year. I’ll be ok. But please understand that many worked HARD to get into these positions and were doing great public health work.

A number of federal agencies, from HHS to the USDA, have laid off employees only to rescind those terminations days later. An expert says it "suggests something about mismanagement of government."

This is a drug addict who can barely put together a sentence.

A small government team at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, responsible for regulating autonomous cars—which Elon Musk claims are the future of Tesla—is being cut nearly in half by Musk. Conflict of interest?

"As we navigate the sheer quantity of hate and unconstitutional extremism found within these orders, it’s essential we not let this blitzkrieg distract or deter us." - Keith Thirion

John Fetterman’s staff are leaving him in droves and there are awful rumors about how he treats them. Are we sure he’s not just three Kyrsten Sinemas sitting on each other’s shoulders in a hoodie? Our latest:

If we have enough people with the knowledge and moral fortitude of Maine Governor Janet Mills, and the Associated Press- we might be able to save our Democracy

ProPublica has released another study related to the effects of abortion bans in the U.S., this time showing a spike in sepsis cases in Texas following the implementation of that state's "heartbeat" abortion ban in 2021.

Rep Raskin has been great. Rep Ocasio-Cortez has been great. And Rep Frost and Rep Crockett. Senator Murphy. Maybe no one knew exactly what to do. But such people laid down a clear marker. Let’s respect these and other elected federal representatives who stood out these first few weeks.

Today’s cover of the Murdoch-owned New York Post

BREAKING: USCP is arresting Enrique Tarrio for swiping his hand at a counterprotester who got in his face.

There have never been kings in America. The monarchy doesn't start now.

Minnesota is now South Manitoba. I don't make the rules.

Canadians are now referring to the United States as the 11th province

It was always Rand Paul’s destiny to be the last man to board the political Titanic and the first one to shove a woman out of the way to take the last seat on a lifeboat.

Hey MAGA, let me spell it out for you. His wealthy supporters gave him lots of 💵 so he could convince you he was on your side. But he never was. He’s on HIS side. And his wealthy donor’s side. And now they will be rewarded with massive tax cuts they don’t need. At your expense.

A rogue DOJ… Pardons for Jan6 treasonous acts were inexcusable. Broaden the scope to include drugs, guns…and child porn manufacturing/possession of child porn? Abuse of judicial power. www.npr.org/2025/02/20/n... Criminals supported by bigger criminals. This is our country. #SheShed

You know it’s bad when this is the post’s cover

The University of Michigan’s latest survey, released Friday, showed US consumer sentiment fell 10% in February, twice the initial estimate, marking a second consecutive monthly decline, driven by worries over Trump’s tariffs potentially jacking up prices.

Believe them. (What’s “the job”? Ending our democracy, and 🇺🇸 as we know it?)

Trump:Canada=Putin:Ukraine. Rhetorically. One more expression of Trump’s admiration for Putin. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Jasmine Crockett is shredding this solo. But it’s past time for the rhythm section to enter this song already.

Remember when America had friends? Like a month ago?
