Much as I would not dare to predict the consequences of this war, I do think we can summarize it thusly so far:

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Law firms did not strike a "truce" with Trump. They capitulated to an authoritarian. Some, like Skadden, sought out these deals before they even faced any sanction from the Trump regime.

The law students standing up are brave. The law firms they are protesting are cowards.

Word of the day is ‘quiddler’ (18th century): one who focuses on unimportant issues while avoiding the important ones, or who fiddles/plays golf while Rome burns.

How the hell is George Conway married to her????

People need to be crystal clear about something: The requirement that the government ANSWER to a court on the legal basis for detaining someone is literally the core liberty right (habeas corpus). If the government says they don’t have to do that bc “national security,” YOU can be disappeared.

YES!!!

There is no magical pot of money waiting in Europe for scientists fleeing the US.

And it sure as 💩 isn't in Canada, which has been foolishly slashing university funding and all research funding for YEARS. NZ has recently started doing the same.

A lot of science will just die on the vine.

Contribution of vaccination to improved survival and health: modelling 50 years of the Expanded Programme on Immunization Since 1974 substantial gains in childhood survival have occurred in every global region. We estimate that EPI has provided the single greatest contribution to improved infant survival over the past 50...

Nothing will kill more children than the ongoing decimation of CDC, NIH, and USAID work to lift vaccine uptake in the US and world.

Child survival rose 75% in the last 50 years. Vaccines account for 40% of that. Measles vax alone was 60% of the benefit. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

In actuality, measles can cause long-term damage to the immune system. This is called "immune amnesia," and it is characterized by the body forgetting how to fight off other infections after recovering from measles.

Once again, if you'd like to die like a Medieval peasant -- vote Republican.

Opinion | A Great Unraveling Is Underway Trump’s foreign policy philosophy is not “containment” or “engagement,” but “smash and grab.”

"Top officials of our oldest allies say privately they fear that we are becoming not just unstable, but actually their enemy. The only person who gets treated with kid gloves is Putin..."

NEW: Rudy Giuliani has listed his Manhattan apartment for $4.18M; a $1.46M discount! I’ve written an ad:

I love this!!!! 🤣🤣🤣

American hunger and financial ruin, TB and AIDS around the world, measles here, Ukrainian deaths, etc. Someone should maybe start a Trump Regime Death Count kind of like the covid statistics from five years ago.

Dusty empty room with light streaming in the two windows.

There's a line from the John Irving book Hotel New Hampshire that I love.

"Keep passing the open windows."

It was a way to tell each other to persevere. To keep on.

So my friends, keep passing the open windows

This Sunday, the whole country needs to spring forward from 1939.

No bone spurs detected.

What the hell did he think was going to happen? Did he really think he was going to have any say? He’s just a stooge.

This is all ya got? Really?? 🤦🏻‍♀️ Bringing a teaspoon to a gunfight is an understatement.

The stock market is tanking so badly it almost feels like we are being governed by someone who went bankrupt six tim— oh.
