Netanyahu: “These achievements are increasing the status of Israel as a superpower… We will reach the kingdom. We will make it to the return of the Messiah.” (Grok confirms👇🏽)
This is what your tax dollars are paying for.

Bacteria in our BRAINS??!
We observed translocation of bacteria from the gut to the brain via the vagus nerve.
This occurred after high fat diet, or without dietary changes in mouse models of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and autism.

A novel pathway of gut bacterial translocation to the brain via the vagus nerve observed in models of high-fat diet or distinct neurological conditions, such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and autism spectrum disorder. The image shows a mouse, with its internal organs visible, and bacteria (black) travelling up the vagus nerve (red) from the gut to the brain. The images were created using Biorender software.
Gut #dysbiosis has been linked to #NeurologicalDisease, but what's the mechanism? @grakoui.bsky.social @dweisslab.bsky.social &co show that a high-fat diet increases gut permeability, enabling bacterial translocation from gut to brain via the vagus nerve in mice @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4ruE6EP
Big thank you to @liuswrites.bsky.social for this wonderful piece about our study revealing bacterial translocation from the gut to the brain in settings of high-fat diet or in models of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and autism.

Other democracies have found ways to punish political lies while the United States mostly shrugs.
@weissmann.substack.com and @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social discuss why political lies here are treated differently from virtually every other kind of fraud.
WTF: Trump encourages vessels to "go through the Strait of Hormuz and show some guts" in a new Fox interview www.foxnews.com/live-news/us...
While millions are struggling to make ends meet, Donald Trump is exploiting the presidency to get even richer through shady crypto deals and blatant self-dealing.
New "Golden Age" for whom, exactly?
NEWS: The Trump administration just gave Vladimir Putin another break. Treasury issued a license letting countries buy Russian oil already loaded onto ships before March 12, allowing those sanctioned shipments to still reach buyers, handing the Kremlin a financial lifeline.
Knowing that the incompetent child rapist had ZERO plan for an actual war against Iran has to be horrifying for members of the US military. 😳👇
NEW: Hundreds of mental health professionals have left the Department of Veterans Affairs since President Donald Trump took office, leaving staff “at a breaking point” and some veterans waiting as long as six months for help.
One of the best descriptions that I've ever seen of the Trump presidency.

Cities in Vermont and Maine are experiencing some of the same tactics that ICE has been using across Minnesota since December, and facing lots of resistance.
He believes money is there because he has money to do what he wants. 🤬😡
Ossoff: "The president appears increasingly to have lost touch with reality. That is deeply concerning when you have a a cabinet much more concerned with winning his favor than giving good advice & the nation now plunged into war. It speaks to the necessity of winning these midterms in a landslide."
Several drones have hit Kuwait International Airport.
A total of three ships hit overnight with Iran warning oil could reach $200 a barrel.
The big decision to release oil reserves yesterday has had little effect. Price per barrel soared above $100. It’s now hovering in the high 90s. Traders are expecting Trump and Netanyahu’s war to be prolonged.
The CDC urges travelers to check their polio vaccination. The poliovirus has been detected in several countries. Kids and adults should make sure they are fully vaccinated before traveling abroad.

When Trump announced he was dumping Kristi Noem as his secretary of homeland security and replacing her with Sen. Markwayne Mullin, some framed the decision as a much-needed refresh for a beleaguered agency. But the soon-to-be head of DHS can hardly be considered baggage-free.
Here’s why you might want to clean your earbuds.

when you're too Islamophobic for Randy Fine ...
Why are we Americans so down on our fellow citizens?
Just a guess...because half of them voted for Trump and everything he embodies...and that's really bad.
Oh...the irony...
Almost two weeks ago, I found out I was one of 40 people getting laid off from NBC News.
Those who know me know I’ve wanted to go independent for a long time. Later this month, I’m launching @spitfirenews.com. We need journalism that is louder than ever.

The U.S. and Israel are racing to destroy Iran’s missile supplies before their own air defenses are exhausted, Missy Ryan and Nancy A. Youssef report:
Disaster costs fell in the U.S. in 2025. Still, it was the fourth time in five years that extreme weather inflicted more than $100 billion in annual losses. Industry experts say the growing financial toll will make insurers wary of rushing to cut rates. n.pr/4s7NKOX
