After spreading doubt/mistrust in doctors, medicine and vaccines for 6 years, Podcast Jay suddenly wants trust to return, now that it is his job to stop measles.
Like all MAHA doctors, he's failing.
My latest.
Amazing work, everyone the OpenAI boycott is working! And thank you to our international supporters who are joining us. Sam Altman is in panic mode he went on X tonight telling users to ask him anything about OpenAI’s Pentagon deal as the boycott of ChatGPT grows.
Thank you to everyone who tuned in to the People’s State of the Union! You made history and completely took the spotlight. 😉 Huge thanks as well to MoveOn and MeidasTouch for putting it together incredible work!
If you’re watching Casey Means talk about vaccines in her confirmation hearing and would rather watch her do literally anything else, we suggest watching her “enjoy” a liver smoothie in our piece from last year on the MAHA movement. Then she’ll bring up vaccines again. Sorry. youtu.be/3lzfH86avIc
Casey Means’ confirmation hearing is over.
My impressions:
Means has zero understanding of or concern for the most vulnerable Americans.
Means will absolutely not promote vaccination or in any way push back on RFK Jr.
Means doesn’t understand public health at all.
From me: Kalshi's banning of a Mr. Beast employee for insider trading may undermine the many legal cases where prediction markets claim they are just neutral platforms for futures contracts and not casinos that can determine the outcome of the bets.

Trump administration officials declined to affirm states’ authority to run elections during a private meeting with state election chiefs Wednesday, according to an election official who was on the call. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

And yet he votes to fund ICE🤬🤬😱
BREAKING:
Minnesota's chief federal judge has demanded the acting head of ICE personally appear in court Friday to explain what the judge described as repeated failures to comply with dozens of court orders amid its enforcement efforts in the state.
Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.
According to The Atlantic, Greg Bovino has been stripped of his role as Border Patrol “Commander at Large.” He’s being reassigned back to his previous post in El Centro, California, where officials expect he will retire in the near future.
It's not quite the most pressing issue at the moment, but the American people absolutely have a right to know the names of the federal officials who shot and killed a man peacefully protesting, who was on his knees, prone in the street when they shot him in the back.
Many TikTok users recently reported problems uploading videos, sudden drops to zero views, or posts getting stuck “under review.” Almost all of those complaints involved videos criticizing ICE or discussing the murder of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis.
The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
Crazy deluded billionaire talk
With fewer than 40 bills signed into law as of Dec. 22, the House and Senate set a modern record for lowest legislative output in the first year of a new presidency, according to data maintained by C-SPAN and Purdue University. https://wapo.st/3YPTQGo
I finally agree with something he says…. Release all the names!! No matter what party, wealth, influence, status, nationality!!
Just do it!
Story on federal employees who have left.
If you left via rif, termination, resignation, fork, retirement…. How are you doing?
What has brought you happiness?
What, if any, regrets?
How connected are you staying?
Trump just announced he will be giving members of the military a $1776 bonus. So re-upping this shutdown piece about the dangers of a the leader of a personalist regime presenting himself as the paymaster of the armed forces.

Important to know as RFK Jr. plans to waste time and money on a conspiracy theory that Lyme disease was created by the government. It's been in North America for thousands of years.
Masked federal agents walk down the middle of the street
Reminder: Only a few weeks away until California’s mask ban for law enforcement officers goes into effect—
Beginning January 1st, #ICE & other agencies operating in the state will no longer be allowed to use face coverings that hide an officer’s identity
The idea that others are using unfair advantages to get ahead is a core element of both Trumpism and anti-immigration rhetoric. Letting rich people and businesses ostentatiously buy U.S. residency is as explicit a shortcut as you’ll find.

Between Medicaid cuts and physician burnout we are heading towards a collapse of primary care in the U.S., along with a mass exodus from public health and science.
And I don't blame doctors. They didn't get into medicine to spend their hours refuting crackpot Facebook theories.
"When I said in February that they were going to cast a wide net for deportations, I had no idea how bad it would be. This is not just a matter of aggressive deportation. The things that are being done by our government to our fellow human beings are monstrous."

"There need to be subpoenas for witnesses, for documents all up and down the chain of command. I think it’s appropriate that Hegseth is in the hot seat...but we need to remember that this whole campaign also goes all the way up to the president."
@tessbridgeman.bsky.social is so good in this chat:
