This is insane. If you wonder why some of us think the rule of law is about to fall, it's this. The U.S. Attorney for DC is not "President Trump's lawyer" and its job is not to "protect his leadership" nor prosecute people who "refuse to put America first".

Fact: highly unusual, first reported death in US from measles in a decade. Without sustained campaigns to increase vaccination rates, then measles outbreaks could once again become more common in US, under (and because of) decisions made by the current administration.

I'm hearing from experts around the world about what the destruction of USAID is meaning: "a global health massacre," in the words of a doctor who has devoted her life to humanitarian work on the front lines. Millions of malnourished children left to starve. Pregnant women not

Of course the new CDC study on vaccines and autism is nonsense and a total waste of money But that's not the point Point is they can now say jury is still out on vaccine safety The goal is not to build vaccine confidence -- but to undermine it further nytimes.com/2025/03/07/hea…

There's a new solar record in ERCOT. A few minutes ago, solar exceeded 25,000 megawatts of production for the first time, equaling 52% of demand. Emission free sources (wind, solar, and nuclear) are producing about 75% of power demand today.
