If you are a chair of a department or supervise grad students, it might be important to collaborate with your colleagues on ways to strategize when a "problem essay" comes down the pike. It's one small way of protecting each other.

If you are a radiologist and this memo about Trump's "executive physical" seems fishy -- a preventive MRI? no mention of brain health in this? -- I am eager to hear from you.

Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) says Pete Hegseth should "resign immediately" if it's true he gave a directive to βkill everybodyβ in a strike on boats in the Caribbean, including a second strike to kill survivors of the first strike.
βIf the reports are true, Pete Hegseth likely committed a war crime."

Pete Hegseth And Adm. Mitch Bradley Belong In Prison
The South American boat strikes are plainly murders. Now we have the names of the murderers. Do we have the political will to lock them up?
If a man personally implicated in war crimes can remain atop the Pentagon, why would he stand by and risk his freedom should Vance (or Trump again) lose the 2028 election?
And unless Bradley sees the inside of a brig, the message to USSOCOM's chain of command is that no action is impermissible.

Tennesseeβs 7th District race is challenging assumptions about how Democrats win red states
What was once a long-shot bid to flip a R+22 district in TN has turned into a tight race, with progressive Aftyn Behn, within two points of her GOP opponent, telling me that she can feel the "Republican eye of Sauron breathing down my neck."

Admiral Bradley can take the hit for an administration that doesn't give two shits about him or the military in general, or he can drop his retirement papers and out every single political appointee involved. We'll soon see what kind of officer and leader he is.

This is ridiculous. It was the first TRUMP admin which developed the cases against President Hernandez. His brother Tony Hernandez was indicted in 2018 and convicted in 2019, and key ally Geovanny Fuentes Ramirez was indicted in 2020.
Both were later sentenced to life in prison!
