Texas Republicans are punishing voters ‘because we can’
Tuesday’s primary descended into chaos for voters in Dallas and Williamson counties.
NEW: Over 150k Texans this week faced deliberate voting barriers driven by Republicans’ decision to switch to precinct-only polling places.
Why did Tuesday’s primaries descend into chaos and punish so many voters? As one GOP official behind the effort put it:
“Because we can.”

Amazing hearing CNN reporters talking about the bad jobs report while trying to blame it on a nurses strike, ANYTHING but tariffs or the current Admin. CNN is almost unwatchable...

Her detention exposes the Trump Admin’s machine of cruelty that is attacking the free press and violating our rights. This lawlessness and cruelty must end.

Abstract
Traditional vaccines target specific pathogens, limiting their scope against diverse respiratory threats.
We describe an intranasal liposomal formulation combining toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 and 7/8 ligands with a model antigen, ovalbumin, that provided broad, durable protection in mice for at least 3 months against infection with SARS-CoV-2 and Staphylococcus aureus.
In addition, the vaccine protected mice from other viruses (SARS-CoV-2, SARS, SCH014 coronavirus), bacteria (Acinetobacter baumanni), and allergens.
Protection was mediated by persistent ovalbumin-specific CD4+ and CD&+ memory T cells that imprinted alveolar macrophages (AMs), enhancing antigen presentation and antiviral immunity. Following infection, vaccinated mice mounted rapid pathogen-specific T cell and antibody responses and formed ectopic lymphoid structures in the lung.
These results reveal a class of "universal vaccines" against diverse respiratory threats.
The study has been published in Science. YES, it is PEER-REVIEWED.

Markwayne Mullin is for Trump – and Indian Country - High Country News
The Cherokee congressman, who is hard-right and white-passing, may not seem like an Indigenous lawmaker, but he’s no anomaly.
“Mullin is an ultra-conservative, white-passing Cherokee who has been an advocate for both tribal sovereignty and for encouraging tribes to assert that sovereignty by allowing private energy production on their lands.”

AOC: We already have multiple American service members who are dead for an illegal action that the president has pursued with no plan out. They don’t know why they got into this war. They’re talking about a hundred different reasons, and they don’t know how they’re getting out.

Kelly: "You could pick a random group of people off the street tonight here in DC and they could probably do a better job than our government is doing right now. They don't have a goal, there's no strategic plan. And what this is likely to lead to is, again, a long war with a lot of dead Americans."

It highlights the need to return to the Basic Four Food groups when four servings of bread/cereal group was the standard. That is equivalent to 100 grams of carbs a day. What lobbyists now make sure everyone thinks is a dangerous "fad" now. The dietary guidelines used to be based on health.

PM Sanchez is right
Donald Trump’s economy is a disaster. Prices are far too high.
He stole thousands from every American through tariffs. His ICE goons are killing people
So what does the Epstein-in-Chief do? Starts a war with Iran
Naturally, gas prices are skyrocketing
Yet HE rakes in BILLIONS

We are heartbroken by the passing of Emmanuel Damas in ICE custody.
We do not have any information on Mr. Damas’ specific case at this time beyond that which has been publicly reported, but we do know ICE custody.
