Balloux, Bhattacharya, Jha… none of them should be allowed in an academic position, or any governmental position of public health authority, ever again. The betrayal to the profession is so fundamental, so far beyond just bending a little bit to power to get a grant, that it is inexcusable.

“Judges simply don’t believe the representations that are being made by United States attorneys, assistant United States attorneys and the like,” a former federal judge said. “I don’t think...in the history of jurisprudence in the United States, we’ve ever seen anything close to this.” (Pub. July)

Federal Judges Chastise Trump’s Justice Department for “Unlawful,” “Unethical” and “Unseemly” Conduct
ProPublica reviewed hundreds of cases in which judges criticized the actions of federal prosecutors. In many, judges expressed frustration that they can no longer take the government at its word.

Since Trump reentered the White House, he and his aides, striving to wipe the Russia stain from his 2016 victory, have sought retribution against officials who investigated Putin’s information warfare. Even worse, they have eviscerated the government’s ability to counter it.

When we’re talking about Lake Ontario or the Reflecting Pool, that means we’re not talking about: - Inflation - Iran - Climate change - The threat from AI - Ukraine - Gaza - The Epstein files - The deficit - Putin - Voter suppression - Gun control - or the things that really matter.

So Trump is saying the war and high gas prices are going to STAY until after Election Day. Working people paying $5 at the pump? That's just the price of his campaign strategy. This isn't foreign policy. This is rigging the economy to keep his billionaire donors in power.
