Reupping this because its timely again.

IF GIVEN AN UNLAWFUL OR IMMORAL ORDER, YOU MUST DISOBEY IT.

THATS THE FUCKING STANDARD.

"Moderna's CEO announced the company will no longer invest in new Phase 3 vaccine trials for infectious diseases: 'You cannot make a return on investment if you don't have access to the U.S. market. Vaccines for Epstein-Barr virus, herpes, and shingles have been shelved.” 9:12 AM Feb 12, 2026 604.8K Views

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

I’ve spent years of my life trying to explain to people that anti-trans conservatism naturally flows from their belief that children in the American nuclear family are not individuals with autonomy, but instead property of the parents and state, and this guy just… tweeted it out

RFK Jr/MAHA world say they're not reducing access to vaccines for anyone who wants them, only giving people "choice" to opt out.
But by refusing to even review new vaccines, yes, they are absolutely blocking those who want a new immunization from ever having access to it.

The Hill: Gallup will no longer measure presidential approval after 88 years by Dominick Mastrangelo - 02/11/26 10:38 AM ET

Politico: Gallup retreats from political polling , again under new leadership Gallup will announce friday that it plans to measure President Donald Trump's job approval rating only on a monthly basis. 12/21/2018

If you saw today's headline that Gallup will stop measuring presidential approval, they did the same thing in 2018. They do it whenever Trump is president.

Either Blexas wastes Abbott and Paxton and their goons in the backlash of the century or UT Austin will shortly be about as competitive and prestigious as Idaho State University.

it really can't be said enough that this is a person who has dined with the president of the united states

We’re this close to something that might resemble a universal flu vaccine someday.

I really don’t know how Moderna doesn’t take this as a signal move to Europe. How do you operate like this for another three years if you have a fiduciary obligation to shareholders?

FDA declines to review Moderna's mRNA flu shot Under Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Food and Drug Administration has taken an aggressive stance against mRNA technology.

I genuinely cannot believe the degree to which we are pissing away this generational breakthrough, even given the fuckmuppets who are involved www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

This isn’t a setback. This is deliberately thwarting the research and development of safe and effective medicine.

If you want construction jobs to go up, stop (effectively) mandating that states charge construction firms higher payroll taxes.

Feels like the US has spent the last 5+ years on the verge of some kind of secular moral revival that keeps getting channeled into weirdo lifestyle puritanism

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

BASH: Is this measles outbreak a consequence of the administration undermining support for vaccines?

DR OZ: I don't believe so. Secretary Kennedy has been advocating for measles vaccines

BASH: Oh, come on

They’re trying to run the Kilmar Abrego Garcia playbook with a five year old boy in a bunny hat because nobody can find peace if they embarrass the Trump administration publicly. Normal people didn’t like it with Garcia and they really aren’t going to like it for Liam.

Ulysses S Grant called it the most immoral war he had ever known.

Don't agree with Cato Inst on much. But:

Very glad they have quantified what has been obvious for years.

In other words, the liberal arts has provided an all-you-can-eat, buffet style approach to education while the “skills-based,” careerist approach that now seeks to replace it is more like being force-fed spoonfuls of tepid gruel.

If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

Awful to even try to catalogue the harm being done here in MN.

Educational harms, students out school? At least months.

Economic harms, from empty, half-functioning businesses? At least years.

Civic and psychic harms, from shattering the basic sense of safety? Decades.

Stolen neighbors? Forever.

These consolidated cases are about the limits of the President's power to dictate the rules of federal elections. The Framers of our Constitution recognized that power over election rules could be abused, either to destroy the national government or to disempower the people from acting as a check on their elected representatives. See, e.g., The Federalist No. 59 (A. Hamilton); Federal Farmer No. 3. Accordingly, they entrusted this power to the parts of our government that they believed would be most responsive to the will of the people: first to the States, and then, in some instances, to Congress. See U.S. Const. art. 1, § 2, cl. 1; U.S. Const. art. 1, § 4, cl. 1. They assigned no role at all to the President. Put simply, our Constitution does not allow the President to impose unilateral changes to federal election procedures. Upholding our Constitution's separation of powers in the election context is a matter of substantial importance. The Supreme Court long ago recognized that the right to vote is a "fundamental political right" because it is "preservative of all rights." Yick Wo v. Hopkins, 118 U.S. 356, 370 (1886). Our Constitution's careful allocation of power over election regulation helps to preserve that bedrock right. Now pending before this Court are several pending cross-motions for summary judgment implicating these important principles. Plaintiffs mount a variety of challenges to Executive Order No. 14,248, in which the President has purported to direct several changes to federal election procedures. Upon consideration of the parties' submissions,' the relevant legal

authority, and the entire record, the Court shall GRANT IN PART, DENY IN PART, and DEFER IN PART each of the parties' motions and shall DISMISS certain claims in part. Because the record in these cases continues to evolve, many of these denials and dismissals shall be without prejudice. The Court shall DECLARE that two provisions of the Executive Order-both purporting to impose new requirements for verifying the U.S. citizenship of people registering to vote or applying to receive absentee ballotsare inconsistent with the constitutional separation of powers and cannot lawfully be implemented. The Court shall PERMANENTLY ENJOIN the relevant Defendants from taking any action to implement or give effect to those provisions. The Court shall also DECLARE that, in the course of implementing provisions of the Executive Order that call for federal agencies to access and share sensitive personal data, the Federal Defendants must strictly comply with the requirements of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. § 552a. Finally, the Court shall direct the parties to propose a schedule for further proceedings.

the president of the united states should not be allowed to personally loot the treasury to the sum of ten billion dollars and that this is not resulting in immediate, unanimous impeachment is a dramatic indictment of what has become of our political system

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.
