RFK Jr.’s Measles Policy: Deaths Are Expected And It’s The Victim’s Fault I’ve ranted and raved enough about how RFK Jr. and his Health and Human Services department are completely fucking up the response to the current measles outbreak enough that I’m confid…

"The underlying message of Kennedy’s campaign is that measles deaths are expected and admissible, because the people who don’t survive the disease were flawed anyway",

And yet the veterans keep voting for republicans because....brainwashing.

Want one?
One of these ARCs is for me. The other could be for you! Share this photo and tomorrow I'll choose one sharer at random to receive an ARC of SECRET LIVES OF THE DEAD by @timlebbon.bsky.social!

Therapy Thursday.

Impressive total and great list.

It is real simple. You cannot have Trump and the Constituion One of them will be discarded on January 20th. Trump is not eligibleto hold office under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. PERIOD. #resisters

Isn't this partially a despair reaction?

The Economy Is Finally Stable. Will That Change With Trump? President-elect Donald J. Trump’s proposals on tariffs, immigration, taxes and deregulation may have far-reaching and contradictory effects, adding uncertainty to forecasts.

After five years of uncertainty and turmoil, the U.S. economy is ending 2024 in arguably its most stable condition since the start of the coronavirus pandemic. Yet the economic outlook for 2025 is murky, for one major reason: President-elect Trump.

There's no evidence he does.

He should be prepared, too, in the first few weeks at least, to get tired enough to need a nap in the middle of they day. Sleeping sitting up in a recliner might be easier than trying to get back into bed. An hour or so nap in the middle of the day can do wonders.

I've gone through that surgery myself. Sneezing is terribly painful, so do your best to keep the room dust and allergen free.

I guess every tech titan decided spontaneously to give Trump’s inauguration committee a check for $1 million as opposed to this being some kind of protection racket or tribute. I think that’s it, the spontaneous thing.

1. Read to them
*2. Let them see you reading*
3. Let them find things they like
4. It's not about you.

Don’t Let Trump Fool You, He Was Never Exonerated His re-election doesn’t change the damning evidence of his crimes.

Republicans have launched a propaganda campaign to pretend that Trump was "exonerated" and that the FBI are the bad guys.

It's a lie. His record is 34 convictions in one case, 4 guilty pleas from co-defendants in another, two unfinished prosecutions, and zero acquittals. lnk.thebulwark.com/41vcqGn

Nobel Laureates Urge Senate to Turn Down Kennedy’s Nomination Elevating Mr. Kennedy to secretary of H.H.S. “would put the public’s health in jeopardy,” more than 75 laureates wrote.

More than 75 Nobel Prize winners have signed a letter urging senators not to confirm Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President-elect Trump’s pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.

Charles Kushner, Amb France: billionaire
Warren Stephens, Amb UK: billionaire
Jared Isaacman, NASA: billionaire
Kelly Loeffler, SBA: billionaire
Steve Witkoff, Middle East: billionaire

But sure, these are the people who are focused on the cost of eggs. Got it.

Allegory works best when it's reductive. Too many details (like fully-rounded characters) confuse the audience.

Cool - another H&L on deck!!

The incoming FBI Director is already issuing legal threats for TV commentary. this is outreagoues and ominous

A Chinese national, charged with fraud by the SEC, just sent Donald Trump $18 million Chinese Crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun paid $6.2 million for a banana — sold by Sotheby's as conceptual art — and then ate it last Friday.

Call me crazy, but I think Justin Sun, a Chinese national being prosecuted for fraud by the SEC, sending Trump $18 million should be a bigger story

The direct enrichment of Trump by a foreign national weeks before he takes office has merited no coverage in the NYT or Washington Post

“open to Patel leading FBI” is euphemistic for turning the FBI into a domestic political surveillance operation designed to dig up dirt on reporters and the president’s critics and hopefully imprison them.

That is not an accurate statement.

donald trump is the most easily manipulated person on the planet and its maddening that only horrible people with terrible intentions understand how to take advantage of that

It's really obnoxious.

YouTube ads have taken to using the tactics of terrestrial ads, being much louder than the video they're interrupting.
