It's absolutely insane we've somehow let the Covid recriminations debate become like "why didn't we reopen in person schools before there was a vaccine" and not "why did none of the trump guys go to jail for stealing PPE from New York hospitals in March 2020"

When journalists asked me "where we will see the effects of DOGE on outcomes?" one of my responses was "during crises...as long as media connect the dots." Well, dots connected: www.wired.com/story/cdc-cy...

The CDC Has a Cyclospora Lab. DOGE Downsized It Last Year

“Based on simple math, these outbreak responses—which require rapid, timely responses—are going to be greatly diminished,” the former CDC lab director tells WIRED.

As always: if there's any class of people who do not have due process rights, then *nobody* has due process rights, because the government can just claim someone is in that class and there's no process to establish otherwise.

Same with Jan. 6. It's a form of Orwellian doublethink, and why MAGA is properly understood as a post-truth movement. Not really "I believe both of these are true, even though they're contradictory." More like "true-or-false has no value, words are merely tools to get power and hurt enemies."

During Reconstruction, July 4 actually became a major Black celebration because white southerners were still smarting over their loss and Black Americans were finally included in the national project.

NEW DFP Insights from @matthewcort.land: “While attacking Kennedy on his anti-vaccine policies is still convincing to voters, there is an overwhelming advantage to attacking him on his administration’s cuts to Medicaid and home care services.”

Description: Initial ask: Do you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.? Voters were then split randomly into two groups. Each saw one of the following messages, and was asked again whether they have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Vaccine message: Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as U.S. health secretary, has withdrawn longstanding guidelines for routine childhood vaccines and claimed autism is linked to vaccines and Tylenol. Medicaid message: Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as U.S. health secretary, has campaigned to cut funding for Medicaid, including home care services for seniors and people with disabilities that allow them to stay in their own homes.
Initial — Favorable: 45%, Unfavorable: 47%
Vaccine message — Favorable: 42%, Unfavorable: 50%
Medicaid message — Favorable: 31%, Unfavorable: 59%

Absolutely shameful to throw your employee under the bus when they’re murdered, but that’s what happens when you’re in the dumbest cult of personality in the history of the world

We can confirm Alex Pretti was a nurse at the Minneapolis VA Medical Center. As President Trump has said, nobody wants to see chaos and death in American cities, and we send our condolences to the Pretti family. Such tragedies are unfortunately happening in Minnesota because of state and local officials’ refusal to cooperate with the federal government to enforce the law and deport dangerous illegal criminals.
