Ya think?

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

This is horrible to post, but I may as well post it. We are essentially shutting down research operations in my group, which is focused on treatments for pediatric brain cancer. I’m a well funded investigator, and there’s no choice. Science can’t function without the stability of NIH

Arlington National Cemetary SCRUBBED THE CIVIL WAR?!?

SCRUBBED THE STORIES OF THE SOLDIERS BURIED THERE BECAUSE THEY AREN’T WHITE MEN?!?!?

Crazy match

Some DOGE Staffers Are Drawing Six-Figure Government Salaries Engineers and executives at the so-called Department of Government Efficiency are drawing healthy taxpayer-funded salaries—sometimes from the very agencies they are cutting.

NEW SCOOP: Some staffers at Elon Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency are drawing robust taxpayer-funded salaries from the federal agencies they are slashing and burning, WIRED has learned.

I don’t know. If they really do stop sending social security checks I expect to see a violent mob of seniors in golf carts riding up the freeway from The Villages in FL, canes waving and out for blood.

The Iowa GOP advanced a bill making it a misdemeanor for a healthcare provider to administer a Covid vaccine.

Even when a person has requested a Covid vaccine.

Find a partner who sets up your beach chair and umbrella for you before he leaves for his solo vacation activity. Relationships can be challenging, but kindness goes a long way. Everything else is gravy.

On Friday night, HHS ordered CDC to take down all flu vaccine campaign materials from its website. Materials are starting to come down.
For example, a campaign explaining that flu shot can reduce flu severity from "wild to mild" is now offline. Left image is from Friday, right is now
