Prasad overruled FDA staff to reject Moderna's flu vaccine application The rejection is the latest instance of Vinay Prasad overruling career FDA scientists to place vaccines under harsher scrutiny.

The flu and pneumonia kill over 45,000 people a year. Moderna developed a new mRNA flu vaccine for people 50 and older--who are most at risk. Prasad, unilaterally, against the recommendation of experts within the agency, denied Moderna's appplication. www.statnews.com/2026/02/11/m...

Amazon spent tens of millions of dollars developing a nationwide real-time AI-driven surveillance camera system to find 365 lost dogs.

No wonder they have to fire so many employees.

Homeland Security is trying to force tech companies to hand over data about Trump critics | TechCrunch The use of administrative subpoenas, which are not subject to judicial oversight, are used to demand a wealth of information from tech companies, including the owners of anonymous online accounts documenting ICE operations.

The Department of Homeland Security is using administrative subpoenas, a secretive tool issued without a judge's signature, to go after people lawfully reporting ICE activity or criticizing DHS policies.

This is a direct attack on our First Amendment rights and we're fighting back.

Did you ask him why his project is presented as highly polished and suitable for general use, but when people point out that it has serious bugs and security issues, he cries on social media that it's just a little hobby project and nobody should expect too much of him.

Read Bondi’s Letter to Minnesota’s Governor Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter to Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota on Saturday that blamed him and other Democratic officials for allowing β€œlawlessness” in the state. It was not immediately clear ...

If I sent a letter saying I would continue to inflict violence and murder on a community unless that community made legal concessions to me, I would go to prison.

Alt text: Screenshot of a long social media post by Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump). The post claims the United States has subsidized Denmark and European countries for decades and argues that Greenland is critical to U.S. and global security. It states that China and Russia want Greenland, criticizes Denmark’s ability to defend it, and asserts that only the U.S. can protect the territory. The post announces planned tariffs starting February 1, 2026β€”10% on goods from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Finland, rising to 25% on June 1, 2026β€”until a deal is reached for the complete purchase of Greenland. It ends with Trump signing as β€œPresident of the United States of America,” with engagement metrics and a timestamp of January 17, 2026.

Trump just placed a tariff on most of the EU of 10% that will increase to 25% in June unless they agree to sell him Greenland.

This is mad king shit.

ICE officers impersonating utility workers, Oregon lawmaker says NW Natural issues notice telling public how to ID its employees and contractors.

Multnomah Country, Oregon, has posted warnings to residents that ICE agents are impersonating utility workers.

You read that right. ICE is now impersonating utility workers in order to gain access to people's homes and businesses without a warrant.
