Long Covid in children is very high! From Lancet: “…estimates suggested that nearly 6 million children in the USA might be affected by long COVID, which is more than the number living with asthma—the most common chronic illness in children.”

Abolish. Fire. Prosecute.

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here.

Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race

WATCH as Trump's gestapo tackle a civilian in Chicago.

When Democrats take back the House, ALL of ICE illegal actions need to be investigated!

We're close to the world's first-ever broad-spectrum antiviral. In a breakthrough, researchers at the City University of New York have identified a promising path to the development of an antiviral that could be used to fight a wide range of deadly viruses, including future pandemic threats.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a new mRNA vaccine that has been shown to suppress abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina, offering hope to MILLIONS of patients with age-related vision loss. The vaccine triggered strong antibody responses that REDUCED retinal damage by UP TO 85%.

Summary A new mRNA vaccine developed in Japan has been shown to suppress abnormal blood vessel growth in the retina of mice, offering hope for patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Current treatments require repeated injections directly into the eye, but this vaccine can be delivered intramuscularly, making it less invasive and easier to administer. By targeting LRG1, a protein linked to abnormal angiogenesis, the vaccine triggered strong antibody responses that reduced retinal damage by up to 85% in mouse models. If successful in humans, this approach could transform AMD treatment and significantly reduce the burden of eye injections. Key Facts Mechanism The vaccine blocks LRG1, a protein promoting abnormal blood vessel growth. Effectiveness Reduced retinal leakage by 85% and lesion size by 82% in mouse models. Advantage Works as well as anti-VEGF therapy but requires only a simple arm injection. Source Institute of Science Tokyo

The study has been published in Vaccine. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED.

It’s time for soft secession How blue states can use their economic clout to stand up to Trump’s agenda—starting with California.

"Soft secession, powered by the presidential ambitions of multiple blue-state governors, could, should it come to that, be the proving ground of a new confederacy.

Hopefully the threat of CalExit or a new Union will be enough.”

The latest from @clarajeffery.bsky.social:

Tweet from @laura_n_rod Text: A federal agent points a weapon at a woman who was recording them. Jess, a U.S. citizen and member of a neighborhood patrol team that documents and shares ICE activity across the city, was filming when the incident occurred earlier today in the Berwyn area. Photo: shows a federal agent in a truck pointing a gun

Another incident of federal agents pointing guns at Chicago area residents.

This is Adelita Grijalva.

She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.

She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Subpoenas are flying over Hope Florida scandal with grand jury reportedly imminent Hope Florida has been the subject of increasing scrutiny and lawmakers’ questions.

A $10 million Medicaid settlement was quietly sent to the Hope Florida Foundation — a charity led by Casey DeSantis meant to help Floridians. But instead it was funneled into the coffers of a political com. to fight last year’s marijuana legalization effort.

📌I have HAD it with these damn farmers.
They proudly voted for a racist, con artist, who is now screwing them. They will do it again after he gives them welfare checks they claim to hate so much.
Biden and Democrats actually supported them, and now WE are paying for THEIR ignorance and racism.

Durbin to Bondi: "Although you've been a registered foreign agent for Qatar, you didn't recuse yourself from signing off on Trump's solicitation of a free jet from the royal family, even though this gift was clearly illegal. Connections to Bondi seem to yield more favorable outcomes for defendants."

“.. On closer inspection, however, it turned out that the image was not a photograph of a real event in Portland, but instead a fabrication created by combining two photographs of scenes that unfolded in South America nearly a decade apart ..”

Oh look the party that screams “family values” every five minutes is silent when one of their megachurch darlings pleads guilty to child sex abuse. But they’ll trip over themselves to ban books and attack drag shows. Tells you everything you need to know.

Ex-Justice officials: 'It's our duty to sound the alarm' Scores of officials who have resigned or been forced out of the Justice Department this year are speaking out against its "destruction."

“We believe it’s our duty to sound the alarm about this administration’s degradation of DoJ’s vital work, and its assault on the public servants who do it,” according to an open letter signed by 282 former officials.

It will take years to rebuild our Justice Dept.

Pritzker is also furious: “Should National Governors Association leadership choose to remain silent, Illinois will have no choice but to withdraw from the organization.”

HOLY SH*T.

There it is.

Trump says he will speak to the DOJ about giving Ghislaine Maxwell a pardon.

Why the Senate's 'Most Important Vaccine Study Ever' Was Never Published The fatal flaws that made this study unpublishable

A US senate subcommittee was told this unpublished vaccine study was 'the most important ever.' Henry Ford Health now confirms why it was never published: it failed scientific standards.

Here's what's actually wrong with the study:
jakescottmd.substack.com/p/why-the-senates-most-important-vaccine

Acting CDC director calls for MMR vaccine to be broken up into three shots There's no evidence that breaking up the MMR shot would make the immunization safer or more effective.

“We have 1,544 measles cases this year, 92% in unvaccinated people, and 3 deaths. The problem isn’t the vaccine — it’s that people aren’t getting it. O’Neill hasn’t offered a single scientific rationale for breaking up MMR.”
