NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya will take over leadership of CDC temporarily The transition is the latest in a monthslong series of leadership shake-ups across federal health agencies.

King Trump installed a critic of the CDC as the acting director of the CDC. Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, head of the NIH, will keep his current job while he temporarily runs the CDC, which has lacked a Senate-confirmed leader since August.

A man claims his grandmother in Colombiaβ€”a former housekeeper at Epstein’s Manhattan homeβ€”kept hidden memory cards, photos, and tapes when she was fired. He says it includes child abuse evidence, and both ABC and Fox refused to release it. If true, she may be holding what investigators searched for.

Respondents have already wasted valuable time and resources.  Worst of all, not only does detention without due process deprive members of the Bond Eligible Class of their liberty, economic stability, and fundamental dignity, but it also harms their families, communities, and the fabric of this very nation.   IT IS SO ORDERED.

Wow.

Fed. judge tells DHS, ICE, Sec. Noem, AG Bondi, EOIR and others that they are harming "the fabric of this very nation" by defying a court order that vacated their automatic-detention policy.

The American president is more insulated from accountability than a British royal.

Our political system provides the elite with immunity. It has to change.

You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid She’s only 36, and there’s a good argument that she should run for Senate and bide her time. But she also could be a formidable White House candidate.

The worst case scenario for an AOC presidential run in 2028 is that she’s setting herself up for 2032 or 2036.

She is going to be president somedayβ€”it’s just a matter of time.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.
