This is the best post-mortem I’ve heard of why the Democrats lost, by Dem pollster David Shor. Let me shock you, it was the economy (and racial depolarisation, and the Dem trust deficit on basically every issue, and that “democracy on the ballot” didn’t land.) www.nytimes.com/2025/03/18/o...

90% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die from the disease. That's why the medical community is excited about the results of a small trial in which nearly half of the pancreatic cancer patients who received an mRNA vaccine for the disease remained relapse-free three years later.

I used to work at a national park site called Perry’s Victory Memorial in Ohio. The site interprets the War of 1812 & the over 200 years of peace between the US and Canada since the signing of the Treaty of Ghent ending the war. It’s gonna be awkward as hell for the rangers at the park this summer.

A strong business case against DOGE-ery, and in the NYT not WSJ. "The stability of the nation’s laws, and of the government’s role" underlie America's great success in fostering private-sector investment. "Americans like to take risks; to do so, they need a government that is steady and reliable."

The US Attorney in Washington DC is investigating Georgetown Law School, demanding that "if DEI is found in your courses or teaching in anyway [sic]," the law school should "move swiftly to remove it" Federal prosecutors don’t control the classroom. This is a dark abdication of the First Amendment.

This is a direct attack on the First Amendment. Regardless of how you feel about DEI, teaching any element of it is protected by the First Amendment. This is a federal prosecutor attacking the curriculum of a private Christian college. Inexcusable.

Another fun detail lost here: most federal staff work for their agencies and not OPM. OPM provides central policy guidance and benefits, but this would by like if your health insurance provider sent you an email asking you to resign from your job. I don’t see how any of this is legal.
