Stockton CA. The protesters when down many block. More than last time and more young people #nokings

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

Today, my NIH colleagues and I did something scary but really important. We spoke up about egregious harms we are seeing happen to research participants and public health through thoughtless and politicized policies at NIH. 🧵1/3 apnews.com/article/nih-...

RFK. Jr erodes trust in vaccines - under his leadership: - Largest measles outbreak in 30yrs, 3 deaths - Largest pertussis outbreak - 2 deaths - A fake study led by a discredited crank to link vaccines to autism - Ending covid vaccine recs for children & pregnant people www.wsj.com/opinion/rfk-...

Today in our failing state:

Richest guy in the world cut funding for cancer research but at least he had fun

I am positive that the folks who follow me already know this, but if you see a person being kidnapped off the street, put your body in the way. Record it and get in the way.

Newark’s Mayor Baraka (D-NJ) has been released from detention after being confronted by over 20 masked, armed individuals for trying to conduct oversight at an ICE detention center. The agents also put their hands on two members of Congress. Is this who we’ve become under Trump? #OnYourSide

Is this guy capable of owning ANYTHING? He says the “fake news media” made up the picture of him dressed as the Pope and posted it on the internet.” So the MSM has access to his Truth Social account and the White House account now? This is nuclear-level gaslighting.

NEW: The rate of sepsis in Houston surged 63% after Texas banned abortion. In the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where hospital leaders empowered doctors to intervene before patients’ conditions worsened, it rose just 29%.

“I’ve never missed a court appearance. I’ve never missed an appointment with immigration or ICE,” Daboin Rall said. “The truth is: I don’t have any criminal record. I’ve done everything correctly according to the rules of this country.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

Here are some ideas to help you celebrate Earth Day! I'm proud to have my book on this list. 💚 🌎🌱🐋

A 19-year old U.S. citizen was traveling from Albuquerque to Tucson. He was arrested and detained by ICE for 10 days, before his family showed a judge his identification & he was finally released. news.azpm.org/p/news-artic...

Straight down seems bad

The dollar is in free fall, stock market is down, and the price of groceries is up. Is this the “Golden Age” Trump promised you?

Senior partners at Keker, Van Nest & Peters, a firm of 115 lawyers, write: "partners at big firms — who often earn millions a year — must be willing to take financial risks when the fate of our nation, the future of our profession & the rule of law itself is at stake. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/30/o...

Everything Joe Rogan says is wrong. He’s a fount of misinformation and tomfoolery. Why do so many men listen to him? I’m at a loss.

A top vaccine advisor at the FDA was forced to resign on Friday. In his resignation letter, Dr. Peter Marks, wrote "truth and transparency are not desired," by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

One consequence of tolerating pseudoscience is that people die when its legitimatization becomes baked into our culture, health care systems, and institutions.

Breaking: RFK Jr. has forced out PETER MARKS, the nation’s top vaccine regulator. In his resignation letter, obtained by the Post, Marks said he was willing to work with RFK Jr on his vaccine concerns — but said Kennedy wishes “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

“No one knows what the fuck is going on,” said one White House ally close to Trump’s inner circle, granted anonymity to speak freely. “What are they going to tariff? Who are they gonna tariff and at what rates? Like, the very basic questions haven’t been answered yet.”

Tragic news: The breeding male of Oregon's Metolius pack was recently found killed near Sisters, Oregon. We've contributed to the $30.5K reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in the killing of this federally protected wolf. More information: biodiv.us/4iLKRhF

The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

Within minutes of showing up at the IRS, a twenty-something software engineer dispatched from DOGE began demanding access to the tax collection agency’s most protected internal databases — including the one containing the personal and financial data for millions of American taxpayers.

We need a new free speech movement. And universities should sue the Trump regime for abridging the First Amendment rights of their institutions and their students. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/we-need-a-new-free-speech-movement

You don't have to support or even like the campus protests to recognize how dangerous deporting a legal resident is. This is literally the point of the 1st Amendment. This is their test to see how much they can get away with. Next it will be immigration advocates and on. Don't make excuses.

The measles virus spreads like wildfire, and case counts can quickly explode. One person, on average, infects 12 to 18 others who are susceptible to measles. Therefore, if one patient infects 15 others, who each infects 15 more, 225 cases suddenly result. If each of those people infects 15…

The coolest thing I’ve seen today is that a bunch of volunteer public health professionals and developers have restored the CDC website from before January 20th 2025. This differs from an archive in that they want to rebuild the links between pages and replicate the full website.

It would be a real shame if y'all shared this online, printed out a few and hung up all around the Eastern Shore of Maryland. 😉
