This isn’t a “controversial vaccine trial touted by RFK Jr,” this is “playing with the lives of vulnerable infants in a developing nation, which is being pushed by malicious grifters who couldn’t care less about the innocent lives they hurt.”

You shouldn't start your day stuck on Bay Parkway.  That's why we're redesigning Bay Parkway and Cropsey Avenue for the 85,000 daily bus riders on the B6, B82, X28 and X38. New bus lanes, faster buses, and safer streets coming soon.

That framing makes perfect sense, actually. It’s a negative experience boomers are having. It couldn’t possibly have anything to do with choices they made, and ergo is some sort of social contagion.

If these media reports are accurate, we're looking at one of the worst espionage scandals in German history. And it comes at an especially bad time - not just because of the broader geopolitical situation but also because the BND is about to get a lot more powerful
