3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

🚨BREAKING: Four more Big Law firms join the ranks of Trump collaborators. A&O Shearman, Kirkland & Ellis, Latham & Watkins and Simpson Thacher all capitulated. In a sign of growing inflation, each firm agreed to $125m in Trump approved pro bono. Shameful.

I’m not a global Econ guy. I guess take 2 here is slightly less ruinous in geopolitical terms. But it seems maybe even more catastrophic in inflationary terms and maybe growth terms too?

The new "Trump is ingeniously trying to cause a recession" theory reminds me of a similar moment in the occupation of Iraq. A bit more than a year in, it wasn't going well. The US military was trying to overcome a protracted and deepening insurgency. The last WMD diehards had taken the L.

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.
