It is with an incredibly broken heart that I share that Alister did not make it. He developed many small clots post surgery and was simply unable to recover. I know I'm not the only one who's going to miss him. We are eternally grateful for all support and love

I was warned it was very different, which I think helped with my expectations

HHS layoffs hit Meals on Wheels and other services for seniors and disabled Staff that administer programs to help the elderly, disabled people and poor families with basic needs lost their jobs amid the Trump administration's layoffs.

Clearly government "savings" and "efficiency" are more important to this administration than basic, life saving services to some of our most vulnerable citizens. Shame.

Dozens of free measles vaccine clinics close in Texas as federal funding is cut Many clinics had been planned at schools in the Dallas area with low vaccination rates.

This is what Trump and Musk are doing during a measles outbreak.Β 

Today, 10,000 staffers were fired at CDCβ€”including measles and bird flu expertsβ€”while dozens of free vaccination clinics were canceled in Texas.

These billionaires don’t seem to care that children will die from their cruel cuts.

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.

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Just finished reading Human Acts by Han Kang. Literally no surprise she won the 2024 nobel prize in lit. Moving and brilliant and important. In the face of rising authoritarian and right wing movements, it's these personalized histories that become so crucial to moving forward

Protect research funding Federal funding for biomedical research is under threat.

For decades, NIH funding has fueled breakthroughs in cancer, heart disease and more. But a new policy puts progress at risk. We’re asking Congress to oppose this abrupt change. Email your lawmakers!

Viewpoint: Recent disruptions and funding cuts at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) undermine the infrastructure and stability of US scientific research, threatening the nation's global leadership and scientific productivity.

California: In 2024, 13 schools received more than $10 million in NIH grants, for a total of $3.7 billion. Of that, $2.4 billion went directly to research and $1.3 billion went to facilities and administration. The new rate would bring that to $350 million, a loss of about $900 million.
