The allies defeated Hitler in no small part cos so many brilliant people fled Europe for the US. Fascist dictatorships inevitably create brain drains. Trump has just slashed funds for medical research. The best & brightest will leave. We should invite them here. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines. The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds. It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

I work with one of the organizations funded by USAID. The freezing of funds will have tragic consequences for people in that part of the world, especially local women.

If you are wondering how you would have acted in Germany in the early 1930s or in Austria in the late 1930s, you are doing it right now.

Great article today by @davidswan.bsky.social about the experience of being targeted by Elon Musk. Unfortunately it's not in the online version of The Age and it should be. Not sure if non-subscribers will be able to open this.
