In the past week Trump has banned free press, launched state-run media, attacked the international criminal court, and literally rolled out the red carpet for a communist. Trump is the communist.

Well put. @gregggonsalves.bsky.social has many thoughtful takes, but this one's really good. Sadly, it's now common for some in the public health world to court such pundits for legit forums. Pundits who offer little that's new/useful as they platform harmful ideas/ppl & claim it's healthy dialog.🛟😷

Some pundits are pushing a strategic alliance with parts of RFK Jr.’s base. Here’s why they’re wrong.

A very flawed paper that anti-vaxxers use to support the false conclusion that vaccines cause autism was retracted last week because of “concerns about methodology…and conclusions”. Of course RFK Jr. in his role as HHS Secretary is now demanding an explanation. Here it is: the data are shite.

Twin Cities tow truck driver returns abandoned vehicles to families after ICE arrests
Juan Leon sends a "chase" car to check out where abandoned vehicles are located and arranges discreet drop-offs. Since late December, he estimated they have dropped off 250 cars.

So, incredibly, the White House has chosen to escalate in blue Minnesota and retreat in Maine to protect a vulnerable GOP Senator. It's confirmation that Trump-Vance-Miller view ICE as a partisan govt-backed militia to attack blue America while propping up their regime. 1/

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.
NYT push alert: "A person was shot dead today during a struggle with federal agents in Minneapolis, according to officials."
