This is Marco Rubio explaining how the USA promised to defend Ukraine forever if they got rid of their nuclear arsenal left after the Soviet Union fell. This is why lil marco was sinking into the couch. He was hoping we wouldn’t find it…so don’t RT right now this very second.

Here's a story that illustrates why primary sources are important & how Black history is whitewashed. It involves a mass slave escape, Government-sponsored slut-shaming, my nomination for the Blackest name in history & the guy who discovered two words that might end racism. A thread.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

Hey, while we're talking about erasing history: In 1949 the US military held its first Aeriel Gunnery Competition, later known as "Top Gun." The best of the best competed in dogfighting and other skills. The team that won, was the 332nd: The Tuskegee airmen. So they refused to announce a winner🤡

Started looking at legislation that @warren.senate.gov and @joshhawley.bsky.social offered to reform PBMs. Definitely resolves some important points. But I it ignores just how smart the big PBMs are. It also ignores that there are 25 plus Pass Through PBMs that do the right thing for sponsors

Donald Trump’s “Department of Government Efficiency,” led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, is promising $2 trillion in spending cuts—but with no real authority to act, it’s raising more questions than confidence. Today, The Big Picture explores this meme-inspired initiative and its glaring flaws.

Elon Musk is a corporate raider with an established history of buying up businesses, pushing out the founders, taking credit for their inventions and reshaping those businesses in his own image. His latest raid? The United States of America.

Just a reminder that "Under God" was added in 1954. "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

Microservices where appropriate & adherence to encapsulation are key.Too many of these implementations are undisciplined leading to a mess of microservices as devs add end points. Not convinced that going back to monolithic platforms is the way. venturebeat.com/data-infrast...

Gender is a social agreement, society assumes your biological phenotype matches how you portray yourself. So what happens when we disrupt that? Fights in bathrooms? Community policing? Is anyone who even slightly deviates from societal norms suddenly at risk?
