RFK Jr. in interview with Scripps News: ‘Trusting the experts is not science’ HHS Secretary RFK Jr. sat down with Scripps News for a wide-ranging interview, discussing mRNA vaccine funding policy changes and a recent shooting at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

1. "'Trusting the experts is not a feature of either a science or democracy," Kennedy said."

It's literally a vital feature of both science and of representative democracy.

I've written a fair bit about trust in expertise as a vital mechanism in the collective epistemology of science.

The fact that Trump’s “Justice” Department met with Epstein’s accomplice for two days, but never met with a single survivor of Epstein and Maxwell’s crimes, tells us everything we need to know.

NEW — Video taken by a witness and shared with me tonight from DC’s Trinidad neighborhood shows FBI and Secret Service agents patrolling by foot and peering into cars with flashlights.

(Per witness, residents made fun of agents, saying they can't get women and that's why they were doing this lol)

Justice for sandwich bro!

First, the troops came to LA to attack and disappear the peaceful protesters.

Then, the troops came to DC to attack and disappear the peaceful homeless.

If America falls, it will be because of the people who weren’t paying attention — and didn’t take that damn poem seriously.

“I strove to be a shitty person to impress shitty people and win their admiration and patronage and it turns out shitty people are shitty. I was not expecting that because I am very dim in addition to being shitty.”

A Real Place Deserves Real Rights Statehood for Washington, D.C., is a matter of justice.

"There really is one crucial, unbridgeable difference between Washingtonians and other Americans: You have more power than we do—a lot more power"
Statehood for DC!

Don't Be Distracted from Trump's Filth

Confusing night for Trump regime forces as they wandered around DC aimlessly trying to figure out what the fuck it is they are actually doing out there. People all over the place from all walks of life are openly telling them to go fuck themselves in various ways. #dc

super cool that the nation’s political press want to speedrun the 90s juvenile crime panic without anywhere near the actual reported crimes

Things Aren’t Going Donald Trump’s Way He hasn’t ended the wars in Ukraine and Gaza. His economy looks shaky. And then there’s Jeffrey Epstein.

Thank you.

Influencers criticize birth control and push 'natural' methods. Here's what to know Social media is full of videos saying hormonal contraception can hurt you and promoting natural alternatives. How did the treatments get such a bad reputation and do alternatives work?

Trump: We're going to be adding a magnificent ballroom—most beautiful ballroom, I think, anywhere. We need it.

Meiselas: We need it? No, we literally don’t. We need health care. We need affordable housing. We need an end to wars. We need peace in Gaza. We don’t need a ballroom.

YouTube video by MSNBC Triple murderer freed from prison, brought back to U.S. by Trump

3 time murderer brought back to the US by Trump administration.

Let's focus on qualifications: Antoni finished grad school 5 years ago at Northern Illinois with no distinction. Dissertation: No focus on labor or data collection. Zero publications. One lifetime citation (by a former colleague).

This record would not earn you a job as junior economist at BLS.

Tonight @mollyjongfast.bsky.social nailed it on @thebeat.msnbc.com Sinema and Manchin are wholly to blame why it's yet not.

As @mollyjongfast.bsky.social reminded us--DC not being a state falls solely on Manchin and Sinema.

Texas Republicans used to proudly assert their independence. Now they take pride in being Trump's little bitches.

INGRAHAM: Will the National Guard be detaining Americans on American soil?

PETE HEGSETH: Until title 32, which is the authorization they'll be using, they have broad latitude ... if you take a shot at them, there will be a consequence

NEW!! Apparently, Trump was not misspeaking. Sources tell me that there are indeed plans for Trump to briefly cross into russia after meeting with Putin in Alaska on Friday. This is going to more look like Trump-Kim DMZ summit

Turns out Trump wasn't misspeaking in his presser.

Trump nominates Bureau of Labor Statistics critic to replace fired agency head E.J. Antoni, a staunch critic of the agency, had emerged in recent days as a favorite candidate among some influential Trump advisors, including Stephen K. Bannon. He has questioned the legitimacy of ...

Congrats, MAGA!

Now the world won't trust America's job reports number, and neither will Americans.

A shit hole country in 7 months.
