Thank you @amersocvirology.bsky.social for a wonderful #ASV2026. It is always great to see old friends and also to meet new ones. It was a nice reminder of why we do what we do. A true celebration of virology at a time when we needed it more than ever. Thank you, from the Frieman Lab #Lovevirology

Stevens to RFK Jr: "To top it off, Mr Secretary, I got a copy of HR-944. You know what it is? It's your impeachment articles, sir. You have abused your office, you have gutted America's public health! You should be ashamed."

I feel sick to my stomach waiting around to see what atrocity Trump has in mind for the people of Iran this evening. It's hard to fathom our other elected leaders aren't able to check him in any meaningful way. It's an indictment not just of voters but of our whole system. We're ruled by a mad king.

a skilled ER nurse with a deep sense of civic responsibility is exactly the kind of person you want carrying a firearm. every ICE employee should be barred from touching anything deadlier than a butter knife for the rest of their natural lives.

ICE agents are America's failures, basically indistinguishable from lazy school shooters, losers who want to play Call of Duty on our streets against people who can't fight back. They have unlimited ammo and toss tear gas like they're pressing L1. They have to be defunded and jailed. All of them.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

Some favorites from two 📍Catonsville No Kings events today. People driving by were overwhelmingly supportive & many had their cars decorated in support. It is an ever-welcome reminder that most people stand against this administration & the atrocities they are committing.
Protesters, including a person protesting wearing a taco outfit with a sign saying “only you can prevent fascist liars”A protest sign that says “you can’t spell hatred without red hat”A protest sign that says “deport fascists, not immigrants!”A protest sign that says “compassion not oppression”

Feeling a lot like I did in early days of the pandemic these days. It is so clear what’s coming: The people that will die because of cuts in global health, because of cuts to research, because of the concerted anti-vaccine push. It’s clear what’s coming, but we will have to wait to count the dead.🧪

It's been a terrible day. Science has been gutted by a horrific purge of the NIH, CDC, and FDA; a purge I'm not sure we recover from anytime soon. But Senator Booker is a bright light reminding us darkness isn't a force - silence and inaction of good people allows the evil. Get into good trouble!
