UNFORCED ERROR after UNFORCED ERROR.
The senators who confirmed this shit show will roast in infamy for generations.
RFK Jr. ordered the NIHβs Integrated Research Facility in Frederick to stop all research on serious infectious diseases yesterday at 5:00 PM.
They study pathogens like Ebola there. You may be familiar with it from The Hot Zone.

Fun bit of history ... Pierre Poilievre & Jenni Byrne hold Stockwell Day's grandchild to pose as an Alberta family in an ad to nominate Ezra Levant "for the Canadian Alliance in Calgary Southwest in CBC footage from 2002".
Levant stepped aside to allow Stephen Harper to run in the riding. #cdnpoli

~She's thumbing her nose at us.
The campaign is a Poilievre campaign, so being mean, mendacious, and arrogant was always going to be part of it. Heβs only ever been an attack dog, so heβs fighting yesterdayβs war the only way he knows how.
Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything weβve seen in this country in a very long time.
βShe describes [Zuckerberg] as a cross between a truculent teen and a toddler: he doesnβt like to get up before midday, even to meet prime ministers, and his obsequious colleagues feel obliged to let him beat them at board games.β
Sigh. The tech bros are all the same.
Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.
Theyβre throwing away a cure for cancer.
I've been buying Canadian wherever possible and am pleased to find out we can get the same goods with better quality and lower prices. Also, I'm looking forward to seeing a good selection of European goods on our shelves moving forward. This boycott is easier than I thought.

Excellent work from ProPublica
At the NATO meeting a loud US republican saw my CDN flag pin on my lapel and reached for it saying, "Hey Canada."
I stopped him.
"Don't touch the Canadian flag."
"Just joking," he said.

He scrambled out of there.

This is from a 2020 presentation. Now it's just the chaos we live in, and no such description is needed.

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives
How can anyone in their right mind ignore this letter from Caroline Kennedy about her cousin, RFK Jr.?
The upside of Trumpβs taunting Canada is that weβll get more news clips of actual leaders pushing back on him instead of our steady diet of βChris Coons thinks this idea has meritβ
Holy fuckerdoodles.
Regarding the latest Conservative scheme to force an election just as Trump comes to power:
I didn't survive 21 years in Parliament defending a working class and Indigenous constituency to get played for a sucker by Pierre Poilievre and his Vichy Conservatives.

One thing about this story is it confirms my deep suspicion of any cultural figure who makes Male Feminist a central part of their brand. An incredible number of them have turned out to be predators. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/21/b...
