The US led the way in fighting malnutrition, and USAID provided a miracle peanut paste that brings kids back from the brink -- until now. Starvation is a problem that we can actually solve, but we're now retreating from the fight. Here's what I found in West Africa: www.nytimes.com/2025/06/18/o...

Chris Murphy is fabulously kind. 😍 "Everybody here has to decide how much energy they're going to put in to trying to fight for that world. Because you were so bold & courageous, I bet everybody in this room is going to work a little bit harder to make the world you're asking us to believe in."

Personally I’d rather have a Secretary of HHS who prevented my child’s death than one who attended their funeral. Vaccines save lives. It is 2025. Kids in the US do not have to die of vaccine-preventable disease anymore.

Federal funding is not a political bargaining chip. President Trump’s threat to cut off funding to Maine is not only an egregious abuse of power—it’s an unconstitutional act of coercion designed to force states into compliance with his extreme and discriminatory agenda.

Someone at the American Bar Association ate their Wheaties this morning.
ABA
It has been three weeks since Inauguration Day.
Most Americans recognize that newly elected leaders bring change. That is expected. But most Americans also expect that changes will take place in accordance with the rule of law and in an orderly manner that respects the lives of affected individuals and the work they have been asked to perform.
Instead, we see wide-scale affronts to the rule of law itself, such as attacks on constitutionally protected birthright citizenship, the dismantling of USAID and the attempts to criminalize those who support lawful programs to eliminate bias and enhance diversity.
We have seen attempts at wholesale dismantling of departments and entities created by Congress without seeking the required congressional approval to change the law. There are efforts to dismiss employees with little regard for the law and protections they merit, and social media announcements that disparage and appear to be motivated by a desire to inflame without any stated factual basis. This is chaotic. It may appeal to a few.
But it is wrong. And most Americans recognize it is wrong.
It is also contrary to the rule of law.
The American Bar Association supports the rule of law. That means holding governments, including our own, accountable under law. We stand for a legal process that is orderly and fair.
We have consistently urged the administrations of both parties to adhere to the rule of law. We stand in that familiar place again today. And we do not stand alone. Our courts stand for the rule of law as well.

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse. The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

You were taught that educated, single, child-free women are unwanted and pathetic because a woman who is unmanageable through attachment and enraged at the exploitation all around her is a very dangerous thing to an institution that needs to manage and exploit her in order to survive.

A real-world example of indirect costs. Let’s say I got a research grant funded by NIH to study genetic risk factors for cancer, and that grant was $2,000,000. At a 54% IDC rate, the University gets $701,299, and I get $1,298,701 for the research. At 15%, the University only gets $265,846.

The Justice Department has agreed to temporarily restrict Elon Musk and his cronies from accessing the Treasury's payment system—after a group of union members and retirees sued the department over DOGE’s flagrantly illegal activities. This is good news. But the fight is far from over.
