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.
All part of the GOP economic program: redistribute income up.
If you aren't part of the 1% and you still vote GOP, you're a mark.
If this actually happens, it may rank as the single most corrupt act in the history of American politics. I cannot believe this is even under discussion.
Remember when Trump threatened to wipe out a whole civilization? And then backed out of that and talked about forming a deal with Iran? And then dropped that and went to a UFC fight as negotiations fell apart? And then unveiled a triumphal arch and a photo of himself as Jesus?
That was this week.
This isn’t journalism. This is creative writing by fascist sycophants.
If Jake Tapper & Ali Velshi can read Trump's unhinged post live on television, print-digital outlets can surely include the text within news stories. Sanewashing this insane & threatening message is journalism malpractice.
Donald Trump claims we don't have enough money for childcare, Medicare, or Medicaid—then requests $1.5 trillion for war.
Remember that.
Pam bondi ignoring Epstein survivors
may this define her for the rest of her life.
she was willing to stoop this low and still got fired.
girl, bye.
I keep seeing "all authors use AI, the real issue is they're being forced to be sneaky about it" headlines.
Full stop No. This is a lie peddled for normalization. It's schoolyard-level pressure tactics "C'mon, all the cool kids are already doing it. We won't tell. It's fine. We're on your side."
Wild Ultimatums and ‘Bombing Our Little Hearts Out’: A Portrait of Trump at War
Standoff With Iran Raises Fresh Doubts About Trump’s Freestyle Diplomacy
freestyle diplomacy & wild ultimatums?
The @nytimes.com is dancing around Trump's incompetent warmongering with cutesy headlines like these. Can't help but thinking if it was Obama or Biden, the headlines would be stark & to the point with words like chaos, erratic, miscue even failure.
Candy is being crushed at heretofore unseen levels.

Honestly, good for him.
In the summer of 1993, I lived and worked on campus at my college. I wrote a movie in my college's computer lab every night after work. It was called EVERYBODY'S DEAD.
Lovely thread.
We’ve been working on a graphic novel for a decade and a half. We’re just now spotting the sound effects, making the final QC pass. It’s almost done. Will anybody want to read it? No idea. But we've had a great time making it.
Things are not okay.
Trump pardons allies who boost his crypto coin.
Trump invests in corporations that he's supposed to be regulating.
Trump cuts deals with autocrats to advance his family's real estate business.
The list goes on.
We must not become numb to this blatant corruption.
In cases you were wondering . . . this is a photo that annoyed Pete Hegseth so much because he thought it was "unflattering" so he got the photographer barred. I encourage all of you to use it as often as possible.
Tarrio is, quite literally, a pardoned terrorist.
I continue to be gobsmacked at 1) how common this formulation is 2) how antisemitic and generally bigoted it is 3) and how for all the talk of anti-semitism this is never cited as an example even though it’s quite literally the original incarnation.
I remember when trying to forgive student loans was massive overreach of Presidential power.
this is what they said it would be like under socialism
Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans
He was pardoned for serious crimes - facilitating the financing of terrorists and sex predators.
Because he agreed to put millions into Trump’s pocket.
Naked corruption. Out in the open for all to see.
the White House, last week: "Donald Trump does not actually control his Truth Social account or what gets posted to it"
newspapers around the country, this week: "President Donald Trump says on his social media account that..."
trump wrote the post himself and everybody knows it.
I keep thinking about Ted Cruz, who fervently backed Texas Republicans' partisan gerrymandering scheme, crying online about how mean it is that Virginia Democrats pulled off a partisan gerrymandering scheme.
I know he has no principles, but Jesus Christ, man, have some self-respect and dignity.
We've only been aware of Trump's racism since a 1973 article about his real estate company refusing the rent apartments to black people, the first ever mention of his name in the NYT. That's why his Obama meme comes as a total shock. Who knew?
He lied to the Senate in his confirmation hearing.
Democrats must move to impeach. We know it’ll fail but they need to get in front of cameras and mention this every chance they can. This is exactly the sort of thing voters mean when they insist Dems do something.
