the fact that there are people who seem to think that the funds he is stealing from the american people by stripping away all their rights and protections are somehow going to go to them and not directly into his bank accounts makes me want to smash my head against a wall

I look forward to the day when a Democratic president posts “Half of this country is too stupid to breathe, and business owners can eat my ass” and the Times covers it with this kind of equanimity

SCOOP: On his second day as HHS secretary, RFK Jr., the onetime environmentalist, killed climate change programs at NIH that research and prepare for the health effects of extreme weather and a warming planet. This is not going to make Americans healthy. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Pretty sad. Just got the email that CZI is canceling the second round of Diversity Leadership Awards. Private industry will definitely not fill the hole that NIH and NSF are leaving. 😢💔

Crockett: "It's just that they're idiots. These are the same guys as it relates to our nuclear stockpile, they're like, 'Oh, wait a minute, we needed those guys? Can we get them back?

Congrats to @axios.com, which now finds itself in a league with Fox News — as contrasted to the AP, NYT and Washpost. Now that’s what we call “smart brevity.” apnews.com/article/trum...

Here is the current recommended vaccine schedule. Please share, bookmare, or save for anyone for whom this may be helpful in the future. And never forget that RFK Jr. blatantly lied to Congress.
