i do not think the mainstream press is equipped or capable of covering ideological white nationalists and eugenicists as such, or even capable of noting that this is what they are. it is related to the wide belief that racism is simply a matter of manners.

if you are a cis person it costs you nothing to just say today that you see & hear your trans sisters & brothers & others over in the UK today -- and around the world, too, knowing that rulings like today's ripple out in ugly ways.

It isn't just measles. Whooping cough—pertussis—cases are soaring throughout the US amid declining vaccinations. >7k cases have been reported in 2025. 2 Louisiana babies have died of pertussis. Washington state reported its 1st pertussis death in more than a decade. The vax can prevent funerals.

this is completely nuts.... DOGE wants to audit all independent nonprofits that receive federal grants. for one, there are probably thousands; secondly, under what possible authority can the government go into nonprofits internal systems without a warrant related to a crime?

HHS Secretary RFK Jr. is a danger to the public’s health and should resign or be fired, says APHA. In just a few short weeks, his actions on vacccines, fluoride and other public health science have shown how wrong he is for the job. Read & share our statement: apha.org/news-and-med...

In what may be the first whistleblower of the DOGE era, a whistleblower told Congress and NPR that DOGE may have taken sensitive labor data and hid its tracks. "None of that ... information should ever leave the agency," said a former NLRB official.

Trump suggests stripping Harvard's 501(c)3 status as political retribution for standing up to him. It will not stop with Harvard, the goal is to do this to all civil society organizations that oppose him, including orgs like the ACLU. He's trying to destroy all political opposition.

Given discussions at I had at #ESCMIDGlobal, it might be useful for new researchers to know how a journal editor screens submissions (obviously this is my approach and so it might differ for others).

I'm going to say this every time I see news about whooping cough: babies who get this break their ribs from coughing. Babies who survive can have brain damage. Get vaccinated. Wear a mask. Please.

An unappreciated part of this story: the person doing the arrest wasn't an ICE agent, it was an ATF agent. According to Reuters, 4 out of every 5 ATF agents has been reassigned to do immigration enforcement. So it's a great time to be a gun runner in the United States.

Ok, so we're well into "ignoring court order" territory, now what? Perhaps an illegitimate government should not be supported by our labor or taxes? I suspect our country is headed towards a tax strike or general strike. Just a thought. 🤷‍♂️

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind. An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one." The other said, "Take him anyway." So they did.

More eugenics talk. Besides being flat out wrong, what does he mean by "healthy"? If you have diabetes, or a curable cancer, paralysis from a war injury (or literal brain worms in RFK), were you just one of the weak ones to this insane eugenicist?

What is 0.7%? If you make a $100,000 salary, that is $700 per year. Not nothing, but a pittance of the $99,300 you get to spend elsewhere. 0.7% is the UN target for foreign assistance spending, and virtually no country is meeting it. To save a pittance, we're going to let millions of people die?
