Routine reminder that Bhattacharya is an economics researcher who has never practiced medicine and whose best known publication is overtly fraudulent. He has never done infectious disease research and has never treated a single virus or infection in his entire career. He’s likely never seen measles.

Ken Cooke reached 101 today: someone who never hesitated in giving their all, in a world where his life could be cut short in an instant. Ken has devoted much of his later life to honouring those who never came home: what a legacy. Happy Birthday, old friend!

Watching Trump teeter on the edge of blowing up the world economy because of a combination of hubris, strategic incoherence, mendacity and outright stupidity, might be the most extraordinarily depressing thing I have observed in my entire life, or read about in any other period.

1/ It's not just that unilaterally paying TSA agents is illegal. It's that Trump has now repeatedly undermined the core of the congressional power of the purse. He's not spending money that has been appropriated by law (impoundments) and he's spending money that has not been appropriated.

Utterly disgusting. He should be forced to resign for this alone. And asking for donations to access his “private national security briefing” is either a scam, or criminal and stupid.

New: The FBI has lost 300 experienced national security agents over the last year, including 45 fired. Now the threat environment is as perlilous as it’s been in a long time. The DOJ has also lost experienced natsec lawyers. www.ms.now/news/doj-los...

I’m genuinely impressed by the lasting peace that Jared Kushner achieved in the Middle East during Trump’s first term. I thought he was just using his position and access to classified government information to make money. (Sarcasm font)
