1. The Trump administration claims that a program to protect rural Alabamans from raw sewage is racist so it is canceling the program as part of its crackdown on "DEI" According to a press release, this is about treating "every individual with dignity and respect." 🤔

A study in Nature Communications shows that Zika virus NS1 induces tunneling nanotubes in placental cells, which facilitate viral spread and transport of mitochondria in placental cells. The findings could be used to develop therapeutic strategies targeted against this transmission mode. 🧪

Zika virus NS1 drives tunneling nanotube formation for mitochondrial transfer and stealth transmission in trophoblasts - Nature Communications
Michita et al. show that Zika virus (ZIKV) NS1 induces tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) in placental cells, which facilitate viral spread and transport of mitochondria in placental cells. Infection with a NS1 mutant ZIKV not inducing TNTs results in a higher interferon response than wild-type ZIKV infection.

In order to actually cut $1 trillion from the budget you are going to need massive cuts to programs like Social Security. Musk is not hiding his intentions

This is a remarkable display of political illiteracy by NYT columnists who say that the DEI crackdown is both positive and not very important, while the gutting of USAID is negative and important. But it’s DEI that was used as the justification for dismantling USAID and most other DOGE cuts

Elon Musk on Wednesday acknowledged that the U.S. DOGE Service “accidentally canceled” efforts by the USAID to prevent the spread of Ebola — but Musk insisted that the initiative was quickly restored USAID officials said that Musk was wrong: USAID’s Ebola prevention efforts have been largely halted
washingtonpost.com
Musk claims DOGE ‘restored’ Ebola prevention effort. Officials disagree.
USAID’s initiatives to fight Ebola and other diseases have been gutted, current and former agency officials said.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

US government spending has not slowed under Trump so far, data shows
The U.S. government spent more during President Donald Trump's first month in office than it did during the same period a year ago, in a sign his cost-slashing effort has yet to reduce the nation's heavy fiscal obligations, a Reuters analysis of federal data shows.
