Scientists have studied mRNA for decades. The vaccine has proven to be safe & effective-saving millions of lives. Researchers are working on mRNA vaccine for HIV. RFK Jr is an ignorant nut. In 2019 he visited Samoa & told ppl measles vaccine is dangerous. Tragically he was believed. 83 kids died

Non-autistic humans love to say “everyone deals with that.” Of course there’s overlap. We’re all human. But what we experience internally as autistic humans is different. To flatten that into “same” isn’t solidarity. It’s erasure. It’s violence.

Can't believe I had to issue a request like this, but apparently news outlets are printing completely fabricated quotes now
To Whom It May Concern,


I became aware of your recent article “Trump posts fake video of Obama in jail, declares ‘treason’ and ‘crime of the century’ in AI-driven blitz” which contains a completely fabricated quote from me. The article attributes the following to me regarding Donald Trump’s AI video depicting Obama’s arrest:


“This deepfake is political disinformation at its worst,” said Nina Jankowicz, disinformation analyst and former executive director of the US Disinformation Governance Board. “It erodes public trust, damages reputations, and poses serious threats to democratic stability.”


I did not say this. In fact, I have not issued any comment related to this Trump AI video to your outlet or the public. The manufactured quote is incorrect and irrelevant, and it negatively impacts my professional reputation.


Please remove the false quotation and append a correction to the article, stating that a prior version of this article included a quote falsely attributed to Nina Jankowicz.


Sincerely,

Nina Jankowicz

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

"The bottom line is that Trump and DOGE made drastic cuts to the NWS and the NOAA. Retired federal scientists warned the cuts could hamstring forecasts and make extreme weather events less predictable and more dangerous."

Trump gutted the weather service. Then Texas flooded.
It's a brutal reminder that in disasters, we need the federal government.

Apparently Texas sends mass “Blue Alerts” to phones every time a cop is in danger. And a lot of people are so understandably sick of it that they’ve *turned emergency alerts off entirely*, meaning that they aren’t getting actually-useful notifications. www.cbsnews.com/texas/news/f...

P.J. Squares (2001-circa 2004): A line of square "slices" of peanut butter and jelly, individually wrapped like Kraft singles. Meant to make it easier for kids to make their own sandwiches--simply unwrap and slap on some bread. Available in either strawberry or grape. Primarily sold in the Midwest
Square packages reminiscent of Kraft singles, in both red and purple, that read "P.J. Squares". Beneath them are two plastic-wrapped, brown and purple squares
