Jay Bhattacharya has ordered that a paper showing the effectiveness of COVID19 vaccines in preventing severe disease and hospitalization be suppressed and hidden.

This man has been crying nonstop about political censorship for 6 years.

But he’s the one who is actually doing it.

‘We were terrified they were going to kill us’: fishers who survived US boat strike speak out An Ecuadorian fishing crew describe their ordeal as victims of Trump’s purported war on ‘narcoterrorists’

There's no legal basis for these boat strikes, and US officials involved in them should be prosecuted for attempted murder and murder. The OLC memo green-lighting the strikes is still secret, but there's nothing it could say that would make these strikes lawful. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Right now, a landlord can raise the rent by 100%, even more, and force a small business out overnight.

It’s time to pass the Small Business Rent Stabilization Act to stop pillars of our communities from getting priced out.

Alligator Alcatraz phones were cut off. Then the beatings began, court docs say Attorneys say the Trump and DeSantis administrations are disregarding a court order requiring access to phones and attorneys for detainees.

“Attorneys representing immigrants held at the ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ detention site alleged… that guards beat and pepper-sprayed detainees after a protest over lost phone access — allegations they argue show state and federal officials defying a recent court order protecting detainees’ civil rights.”

This week is the first at the Daily News since Heath Freeman's Alden Capital laid off our entire print production staff.

It's embarrassing to open the paper we work so hard for each day and find mistakes like this.

Is this the level of editing New Yorkers can count on going forward?

So I want to come back The Times' coverage of Grand Army Plaza because you can see the way "but both sides" infests news coverage of safer streets.

Anthropic's new model Mythos that's going viral and freaking people out reportedly has 10 trillion parameters and a 100 million token context window. This is an absolutely absurd model size that makes it completely impractical for any sort of public release any time soon.

“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” We cannot move on from this threat, even though Trump didn’t follow through this time and may never do so. He must face the consequences and the U.S. must reckon with the fact that we elected the person who made this threat.

Reminder: The mere threat of a genocide was immoral, impeachable, unconscionable, abhorrent. Trump is still an absolute madman and danger to all of us, and must be removed from office.

Completely understand people's desire to use favored acronym for Trump's predictable threat-withdraw pattern but hard to imagine a situation in which its less apt. Threatening war crimes whether immediate or on time delay is a war crime.

Congress cannot wait until Trump’s deadline to find out if he was merely bluffing about committing a genocide in Iran. The statement itself is impeachable. The threat to do war crimes is impeachable.

That’s the best case. The worst is he follows through.

He must be stopped. He must be removed.

We have the Twenty-Fifth Amendment. Now is the time to use it. It's past time for Trump to be removed from office. This is a global crisis. It's time for J.D. Vance and the Cabinet to invoke the Twenty-Fifth Amendment.

Any federal official who does not respond to Tuesday’s threat in a manner befitting their own constitutional obligations in light of Trump’s past actions will bear a part of the responsibility for what follows.

That’s my take.
