The headline should say β€œwhich is unconstitutional.” Every single media outlet should be saying that in the headline!!!!!!

From 2010 to 2016 (latest data I have ), NIH research contributed to EVERY drug approved by the FDA

I am working out of a public library and there are a good number of people who seem to be on hard times using the facilities for various reasons like job searching, entertainment, charging peripherals, using the bathroom, etc., and I am struck by how important it is that libraries continue to exist

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate.

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns.

Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care.

The list goes on and on.

Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

The Miraculous Life of Shane DiGiovanna The 26-year-old Ohioan has not let his rare genetic condition prevent him from having a rich life. But Trump’s second administration is creating new risks to his fragile health.

The Miraculous Life of Shane DiGiovanna

Montgomery (Cincinnati) #Ohio

There are millions of people whose life is at stake right now.

Elon is dismantling America's safety net. They are gaslighting us. One day they say he has no authority & the next he fires people.

Exquisite response by Georgetown Dean to interim USA Ed Martin

On Martin's threat letter not to hire grads until Martin approves of law school curriculum:

"The constitutional violation behind this threat is clear, as is the attack on the University’s mission as a Jesuit and Catholic institution."

21 Civil Servants Resign Instead of Helping Elon Musk and DOGE Dismantle the Federal Government This mass resignation is likely just the beginning of what is to come.

This morning, 21 civil servants, who served in the federal government across presidential administrations, announced that they would be resigning from the federal government in protest of Elon Musk and DOGE's actions, refusing to help DOGE "dismantle critical public services."

There are basically 5 ways to accumulate a billion dollars:

1) Profiting from a monopoly

2) Insider-trading

3) Political payoffs

4) Fraud

5) Inheritance

Don’t believe the self-made myth.

Everyone needs to understand that right this second, in real time, the U.S. government is throwing away the next generation of brilliant scientists.

After the State of the State yesterday, I headed over to a roundtable discussion to hear how pharmacy benefit managers have driven the cost of prescription drugs up at the expense of families.

This is an industry that needs regulation.

Illinoisans need and deserve nothing less.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it isβ€”this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

How dare he say we are corrupt??! This outright lie infuriates me. He truly hates this country and wants to see it burn for his own narcissistic gain.

This type of language is an extra slap on the face on top of how funding for research that may help some of us feel better is being attacked.

Imagine if the media pointed out there was already a Government Accountability Office whose job it is to go after actual waste and fraud, not just things Elon doesn’t like, and found $70 Billion in savings last year and $2 Trillion in waste since 2003.

When the E.Coli outbreak kills thousands and people die from a malfunctioning medical device… The jobs they are cutting are not waste; they are essential to a 21st century existence.

Deleting entire agencies won’t make the issues they work on disappear.

Instead, everyone’s quality of life will go to shit.

CDC cuts expected to devastate Epidemic Intelligence Service, a β€˜crown jewel’ of public health Members of the CDC's Epidemic Intelligence Service were warned Friday that many of them were about to be fired

Doing the unthinkable: The deep cuts to the #CDC's workforce today are expected to decimate the Epidemic Intelligence Service, a program that has trained public health rapid responders for decades.
Envy of the world. Poof!
