I’m glad Miller, Bannon and Vought all exist to tell us exactly what’s coming up ahead, to prepare to resist it and to actively plan to change things come this time next year. But to keep being surprised at the next thing Trump does is a fool’s errand.

What has happened to America's public health infrastructure in general, and the CDC in particular, is shocking. @citizencohn.bsky.social on a public health corps in exile, in the latest edition of The Breakdown: www.thebulwark.com/p/cdc-diaspo...
