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...

HHS has ordered CDC to stop its influenza vaccine “Wild to Mild” media campaign. This is an award-winning campaign that effectively explains how influenza vaccine may not prevent infection but does decrease illness severity. We are currently having one of the worst influenza seasons in 15 years.

If you know someone considering to NOT get their child vaccinated for #measles, remember that measles virus (but not the vaccine) *erases* the existing immunoligical memory. This "immune amnesia" puts someone at GREAT risk for other diseases after. asm.org/articles/201...

My heart goes out to the good people who had to endure this at the NSF today www.wired.com/story/nation... 🧪

Donald Trump on Tuesday night said that he had ordered the firing of all remaining U.S. attorneys who were nominated by former President Joe Biden.

At the behest of Wall Street donors, Congressional Republicans are trying to overturn the CFPB's new rule against predatory overdraft fees. The rule would have capped overdraft charges at $5, saving consumers $5B annually. The GOP is the party of junk fees.

🚨BREAKING: Michelle King, the acting commissioner of the Social Security Administration, was ousted after denying Elon Musk access to “sensitive files,” the Washington Post reports This. Is. Insane.

1. OSHA has ordered the digital and physical destruction of 18 publications on workplace safety practices, according to an email obtained by Popular Information. The email says the publications have been removed from the web and tells staff that physical copies should be "disposed of or recycled"

This is absolutely insane. They want to be able to see our tax records. Why? What purpose does this serve? Search our history so Elon can post about it? Attack their enemies? This is a five alarm fire! 🔥 wapo.st/3QizwcN

A team of workers from the U.S. DOGE Service developed step-by-step plans for carrying out President Donald Trump’s order to purge diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives from the federal government — and over the next six months intend to expand that campaign dramatically.

Last night, we broke the news that the top US election security watchdog has frozen all of its election security work and is reviewing everything it has done to help state and local officials secure their elections for the past eight years. https://wrd.cm/3QkfGh3

NIH funding at @UMich supports important medical research, such as extending the life of organs waiting for transplant, advancing treatments for cerebral palsy, and sustaining experimental genetic trials for children with brain cancer.

Great point.

Of course it’s a coup. Miss the obvious, lose your republic. open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

“Now, as fears emerge Trump’s administration is ‘dangerously’ undermining the U.S. dollar, Musk has confirmed he wants to put the U.S. Treasury on a blockchain, the technology that underpins bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies—including Musk’s pet project dogecoin.” www.forbes.com/sites/digita...

"Trump pledged to keep Musk away from aspects of the government that could be a conflict of interest. "Where we think there’s a conflict or there’s a problem we won’t let him go near it but he has some very good ideas," Trump said." #PresidentMusk #conflict-of-interest www.yahoo.com/news/trump-m...

The CFPB is the financial watchdog for the American people. The agency has returned $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011. Trump fired its director and put his treasury secretary, a Wall Street hedge fund manager, in charge. Guess what happened next...

Costco pharmacy is selling single dose levonorgestrel emergency contraception ("morning after pill") for $5.99 per dose. This is a product with a fairly long shelf life and they don't seem to mind selling it to people who clearly don't need it. No prescription needed.
