Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California.

I urge anyone in the state to vote yes.

This isnโ€™t a race to the bottom. Itโ€™s a means of avoiding the bottom. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-blue-states-should-do-when-red

Opinion | Jay Bhattacharya: Why the NIH is pivoting away from mRNA vaccines As a vaccine for broad public use, mRNA technology has failed to earn the publicโ€™s trust.

I cannot emphasize enough that the playbook being used against mRNA vaccines (and vaccines in general) is IDENTICAL to the playbook used to restrict voting rights after the 2020 election: actively sow public distrust, then cite the distrust you sowed as an independent reason for your desired policy

Think about what the GOP is revealing with their attempt to suddenly change the Congressional maps: they know their agenda is so unpopular that they're going to lose unless something changes.

Of course, what they should be changing is their policies, not the maps.

The U.S. Preventative Services Task Force has been the go to resource for evidence based recommendations on screening and interventions to prevent disease and prolong life. RFK shredding it will make all of us less healthy.

Seems to me that if they gave a shit about Epstein's victims, they'd be talking to them. Not waving immunity options in front of his convicted grooming partner.

โ€œFraud, waste and abuse.โ€

โ€œCrap.โ€

โ€œThings that donโ€™t matter.โ€

This is what the Trump administration calls the life-saving aid the Republican Congress just cut.

But letโ€™s call it what it is: cruelty.

If you're cheering on the idea of impoverished migrants being attacked by alligators, you might be the bad guy.

Exactly. And for fuck sake, stop calling it Alligator Alcatraz. The inhabitants of Alcatraz were all afforded due process in a court of law. Call it what it is, a concentration camp, more like Alligator Auschwitz.

The Senate's โ€œBig, Beautiful Billโ€ will create a disaster for rural moms and babies Medicaid cuts could endanger maternity services at more than 140 rural hospitals.

The GOPโ€™s โ€œBig Beautiful Bill" is generally terrible for families.

But women and babies who live in areas that voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump are likely to suffer some of its most sweeping and damaging effects.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war thatโ€™s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America canโ€™t afford Meals on Wheels anymore.

Make it make sense.

โžก๏ธ WE DO NOT FORGET:

*a Trump-loving MAGA assassin murdered Minnesota lawmaker Melissa Hortman, her husband, Mark, and shot others

*ICE agents are kidnapping and disappearing immigrants off of the streets of America

*Trump/the GOP are destroying working American families to benefit the ultra-rich

Iโ€™m old to remember this being the start of an 11 year war. Those who failed to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them.

Secretary Hegseth is good at playing tough guy until he has to answer a simple question about national security.

Our military is meant to protect Americans from foreign threats, not occupy American cities.

Iโ€™m old enough to remember when people were concerned that I would never learn to spell because of spellcheck. Our students use Grammarly and Zoetoro. AI seems to be next in this line. Itโ€™s not going away, so I encourage students to learn how to use it reasonably and cite it appropriately.
