Nine former CDC chiefs say RFK Jr. is endangering Americans. Amid a measles surge he fired Susan Monarez, installed unqualified advisers, and cut vaccine support. They urge Congress, medical groups, and philanthropy to defend science and public health.

There's a reason that the people who complain that Bluesky isn't welcoming never explicitly say WHO isn't being welcomed. Who should we be nicer too? Be specific about the kind of people you want here. I'd've quote posted this. But he turned replies and quotes off. Making me feel very unwelcome.

“Since Mr Trump singled out India with an unexpectedly draconian double dose of tariffs earlier this month, he has reportedly phoned the Indian prime minister on four occasions to seek a compromise. Each time, the Indian leader refused to pick up.” (The Telegraph)

Gavin Newsom is not imitating Trump. He is mocking him. He is holding up a mirror to what Trump does and how blind his supporters are to reality. From the 3 hour North Korean style cabinet meetings to all caps nonsense tweets. It’s all worthy of mockery.
