I’m so sorry it has come to this for your important research and your family & peace of mind. Your research has been critical to understanding ultra processed foods and chronic disease. Looking forward to hearing of your success in finding the best next step for you!

β€œLet’s talk about war plans on signal” is giving 2025 version of β€œlet’s route White House emails through the RNC.”

Both illegal. Both under Republican Presidents. Both with zero consequences.

Disgraceful response. They never take responsibility. Pete Hegseth put our national security at risk. He is completely unfit to lead.

Top intelligence committees need to begin an investigation into Pete Hegseth's epic Signal chat mishap. ASAP.

There should be televised hearings so all Americans have transparency on how such an enormous breach of national security could take place in first place.

What you have to understand about Pete Hegseth copying and pasting war plans into Signal is that it almost certainly means he’s got classified documents on his personal UNSECURE devices. Signal isn't on a secure device...are our war plans on his personal devices? @jeffreygoldberg.bsky.social

Over $1.75 trillion was wiped out from the US stock market today. Trump owns all of this.

Massive protests erupted in front of the USAID building following Donald Trump’s and Elon Musk’s unlawful attempts to shut USAID down. The resistance to Trump and Musk’s incompetence is growing.

The science is clear: vaccines do not cause autism.

What they DO cause is immunity to deadly diseases.

RFK Jr. refuses to believe in this evidence.
