What. A. Day. NIH grant-making was paused for several hours today. Not sure who gave the order. But in light of the Friday night Bhattacharya-Vought feud & threatened EO to implement #ScienceDeathPanels, my money is on Russell Vought. I learned of the pause from a colleague around 11:30. 🧵

"This September will mark one year since the U.S. military began bombing boats and summarily executing people in the Western Hemisphere. Congress’s response has demonstrated an unfamiliarity with human rights law and how it governs military action in peacetime," writes @seharrison7.bsky.social.

The Boat Strikes Aren’t Part of a War. They’re Murder.
By debating war powers and war crimes, Congress is missing the simpler, graver truth: The president is directing summary executions.

This ICE flight is making bad time for reasons unknown. It spent 4 1/2 hours on the ground in Senegal, where ICE charters generally do fuel/crew stops. Then flew 1 hour to Sierra Leone, a third-country removal. On the ground two hours and counting. All migrants shackled at least 19 hours so far.

🚨 Russia weaponizes global hunger. It has launched 134 strikes against Ukrainian ports and civilian ships since July 1. By sinking grain vessels and targeting ports, Moscow is intentionally driving up global food prices and cutting off food supplies to vulnerable nations in Africa and Asia.

Drowning is a leading cause of death for U.S. kids under 5. It can happen silently and in seconds. Assign a water watcher to keep eyes on kids in/near water at all times. Make sure the water watcher has no distractions.
Graphic with the headline 'Cooking dinner? Choose someone else to be the designated water watcher!' and text noting that one study found half of child drownings occur between 4 and 6 p.m., the busiest swim time, when adults may be distracted by meal prep. Illustration shows an adult and child playing in an above-ground pool on the left, while another adult grills on the lawn to the right. Footer reads 'Learn more at HealthyChildren.org,' with logos for HealthyChildren.org and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
