Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...

We know what the causes are for collapsing numbers of pollinators. It's lack of habitat and neonicotinoid insecticides. It's something we should all be concerned about. Without pollinators, we starve. Literally. Apocalyptically.

For 38 years, PRAMS has collected critical data on maternal-child health with the goal to reduce infant morbidity and mortality. CDC has officially halted the 2024 PRAMS data collection for the participating 46 states and the future is uncertain.

Yessssss

🚨NEW: Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is planning to fire Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff C.Q. Brown, a 4-Star General and 41-year veteran of the Air Force who flew over 130 hours in combat as a fighter pilot. REPOST if you stand with General C.Q. Brown against Hegseth!

Just want to point out that the ACLU was and is still in full support of Citizens United. More than anything else, that ruling got us here.

Truly pause and try to imagine having to say this to your child.

The worst part about being a baby would be that you can’t have sandwiches

NEW: While Elon Musk and his underlings demand budget cuts and layoffs across the federal government, funding for the agency they operate — the Department of Government Efficiency — has soared to some $40 million, ProPublica found.

Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion in 2021, ProPublica found in a first-of-its-kind data analysis.

In this piece I highlight just one example of one of the main (anonymous!) accounts that Elon is taking instructions from, claiming that Bill Kristol is funded by USAID... based on a total misunderstanding of what a *donor approved fund* is. There are so many examples like this.

Musk/Trump/NYT is going to call firing IRS agents savings, but the lost revenue will be many times their salaries: this all about making it easier for rich people to cheat on their taxes.

Call your Senators, we must stop the SAVE Act from becoming law. It would enforce red state vote suppression on a national basis.

This is good from the UK’s former Defence Minister & Army veteran, Ben Wallace. He dismantles Trump’s lies one by one, pointing out that he’s just spewing Kremlin talking points. Ukraine started the war - LIE US gives more funding than Europe - LIE Ukraine needs elections - LIE (🎥 LBC Radio)

Little video of my sailing journey from 2023 to 2024. Will I become an actual barnacle in 2025?

Europe's largest pension fund sold its entire €571 million ($585 million) stake in Tesla #DefundMusk

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

She deserves a round of applause!!! 😂

The lure of Elon’s alternate reality for his followers is so powerful that he will tell them that pulling books off shelves, deleting words from government websites, and banning programs for their kids based on words they used is all part of fighting back against censorship. And they just let him

On Feb. 14th I try always to give honor to one of the greatest contributors to American democracy in our nation’s history, Frederick Douglass. Born into slavery, Douglass never knew his actual birthdate, and adopted Feb. 14th as the day. His penetrating insights about our country inspire me daily.

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it. Strong power move for Team Cancer.

When I heard Musk say this on Tuesday, my assumption was that it was a programming issue. Because I can code and have written to databases and because I am familiar with other examples of default values being misinterpreted. Yet somehow Musk isn't.

Manhattan’s U.S. attorney resigned just days after being ordered to drop the corruption case against New York City’s mayor. So did the two men who led the unit in DC to which DOJ sought to transfer the case. This is what public integrity looks like.

A person with conviction. You love to see it.
