To combat bird flu spread, other countries have authorized poultry vaccines.
The U.S. hasn’t, amid political and economic pushback.
Without a vaccine, experts say the virus poses an escalating threat: “The minute it transmits to humans, it’s done.”

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.
Let there be as much outrage from politicians in Washington when kids go hungry as there is when I break bread with New Yorkers.
Sen. Kennedy took issue with this post below. Since our exchange, I have been inundated with unhinged emails and voicemails, including this one: deranged, violent hostility. But over the last decade, I've gotten used to these responses from nativists.
Constituents are asking me, “What’s going on with funding for ICE?”
Let me explain with my favorite treat from the 14th District.
Horrific. Georgia police charged a woman with murder after she allegedly used misoprostol. Hospital may have reported her.
@pregnancyjust.bsky.social calls it “an unprecedented murder charge for an alleged abortion, even though no law in the state of Georgia permits such a charge." bit.ly/46W2Ezb
Hegseth: "We will keep pushing, keep advancing. No quarter, no mercy for our enemies."

Buzzwords and slogans. That’s all he’s got — basically verbal vaporware.

Hegseth: "Some in the press can't stop. Allow me to make suggestions. People look at the TV and they see banners, 'Mideast War Intensifies.' What should it read instead? How about, 'Iran increasingly desperate.' More fake news from CNN. The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better"
UBC hosted Rachel Maddow to discuss extremism and American global collapse. She brought two decades of research on a man picking trade wars with allies, threatening Greenland, and feuding with Canada’s Prime Minister. The Chan Centre was full. The irony was fuller.
May I offer you a trio of little baby faces in these trying times?
Morally repugnant. Profits mean more than human lives.
it took just over a year to get from "I'll lower costs on day one" to "I'm raising prices and it's good, actually"

“Rights advocates said they were alarmed by the proposal, which they saw as part of a drive by the administration to place homeless people in institutional settings against their will.”
Iran is sending more crude through Hormuz NOW than it was before the war — “showing it is in control of a strategic waterway that it has closed off to the rest of the region’s oil producers.”

You shouldn’t be voting to confirm any Trump nominees, period. Rudd got ~15 votes from Democrats this week. You’ll never fully grasp it, will you?

It’s 64 degrees. I’m so happy I could hump a lamppost. In fact, I just might.
I’m a WHORE for this weather. A FLOOZY for this Fahrenheit. A SLUT for these unseasonable conditions. My legs are open to the sun. Burn my underwear away! TAKE ME INTO YOUR RADIANT ARMS.
The problem is, how does he leave?? Does Israel just go home, let Iran rebuild? Does Iran stop striking US bases, Gulf states, and Israel? Does Hormuz magically reopen?
The TACO idiocy is built around this notion that Trump is the only actor with real agency, but that’s true ONLY of US tariffs
“Tehran is burning. And smoke has filled the streets. It’s impossible to drive out of the city right now and even with the windows closed, heavy smoke is making its way inside."
