Let's be clear.

Globalism cannot be stopped.
It can only be interfered with.

Good, bad, or indifferent... the world is a single, complex, system.

As a physician, I cannot think of any viral therapies that are better at preventing outcomes of said virus than a vaccination against that virus... not one.

They are (partly) victims of a disinformation campaign, which while not new, is now being perpetrated by the Secretary for HHS. Even small actions (like giving vaccine data to a known fabricator of dodgy science) serve as perpetrators, especially within the echo chambers.

Trump administration concedes Maryland father from El Salvador was mistakenly deported and sent to mega prison | CNN Politics The Trump administration conceded in a court filing Monday that it mistakenly deported a Maryland father to El Salvador “because of an administrative error” and argued it could not return him because ...

This is just plain terrible. Not like this wasn't predictable...

Worse yet... we are the cause of much of this globalization... but the moment it begins to make us uncomfortable...

When it means we must come to grips with interdependence...

Suddenly, we want out.

Unfortunately, tarrifs and tantrums won't fix anything.

Now we are seeing that reality play out.

Globalism isn't a philosophy. It's an acceptance of reality.

What we see now, in the US, & elsewhere, is a vain attempt, driven by misplaced nationalism, to "de-globalize" our world.

Never does any good come from the undisciplined and thoughtless severing of connections in complex systems. Never.

Yup.

Trump has canceled Biden's ethics rules. Critics call it the opposite of 'drain the swamp' Donald Trump took office eight years ago pledging to “drain the swamp” of the dominance of Washington influence peddlers.

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees.

Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law

Time to do things that make him react to you.

When incompetence and mastery of bull-shitting conjoin the results are breathtaking.

Problem with a "fair tax" is it can shift the burden to lower income folks who spend a higher percentage of their income.

A fair tax could cost "average" American more than the current income tax. Loudermilk talks like a rich person who thinks he is an "average" earner.

Judge Tanya Chutkan has to see they are gaslighting her.

By percent that is, just to be clear.

What's behind Brett Guthrie's targeting of Medicaid Guthrie is pushing for Medicaid per capita caps — one of the most controversial options on the table as the House crafts a budget package.

Guess which state is the 5th smallest contributor to it's own Medicaid program?

Which states get more federal money than they send Only 13 U.S. states send more money to the federal government than they receive.

Funny thing about many of those states that get more federal dollars than they give...

Ministry of Truth Anyone?

As an Emergency Physician, I highly endorsed this show. Love it.

It doesn't hurt that I have a man-crush on Noah Wylie either.

Worse than that, it fails to understand the complex system we live in

We live in a global world, whether the illiberalists want to admit it or not

Globalists are not people with an agenda, they are people who see the world for what it is

Actions have consequences -
It always comes back around.

To clarify the snippet... the executive order was specific to COVID-19 vaccines.

That being said the concerns of @georgetakei.bsky.social are legit, especially given our Secretary of HHS.

There are four lights.

The use of the word "lies" in regards to this is honestly frightening...

It's totally cool to have "rookies" managing the freakin' Defense Department.

I mean, what could go wrong?

As long as it's a lie spewing, shadow government propaganda meeting... I hear it's ok.

Don't mistake the potentially calculated nature of this...

When they attack her they are fundamentally attacking science, truth, and speaking up to those in power.

It is certainly possible they see those things as an existential threat.

I would pay real money for a President Quayle right now...

The U.S. Economy Is Racing Ahead. Almost Everything Else Is Falling Behind. The gap between Americans’ prosperity and quality of life has grown since the 1990s.

Arguably *the* central story of American life in the 21st century.
