Public health + national security • Johns Hopkins alum • Tracking mysterious weaponized pigeons and FIMI

It’s wild watching every advanced agency developed during my lifetime be destroyed on purpose, by people who want to profit from it and cheered on by those who will be hurt the most because they don't understand how things work.
I'm sure this will be great for our mental health.

1/ The US is losing its vaccine infrastructure. Before the US became a military power, we had to conquer infectious disease. That was key. When disease was controlled, we decoupled it from the military. That let us forget that infectious diseases threaten national security. We're about to learn why.

If skripal had been run over we would debate who did it. There is no debate because the method left no ambiguity. Still, there is nothing anyone can do about it.

No matter where you go, no matter who befriends you, you are not safe—that's the message.

Is that what you mean @dankaszeta.bsky.social?
so - stopping someone from breathing by medical means is different to stopping them with frog exudate? Not sure I get that one...

This is eugenics by another name.

Longtime allies of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the nation’s health secretary, have launched a new effort to repeal laws that for decades have required children to be vaccinated before day care or kindergarten.

An AI agent got mad at a human who rejected its edit and wrote a blog post dragging him, using information it found about him online.

Blackmail has shown up in testing of AI models, but has been dismissed as something that would really happen. It did—and it is happening.

The FAA urged aircraft operators to ensure they have enough fuel in case they are put in a holding pattern due to a rocket explosion.

We found that several planes ran low on fuel after the Jan. 2025 Starship incident. At least one declared a mayday and crossed the no-fly zone to reach an airport.

It doesn't seem targeted. I think they're botching the changeover.
Across a wide range of topics, TikTok appears to be suppressing and censoring content. Haven't had time to study it yet, but I've seen enough examples to know something is going on.

Freedom is criticizing powerful people. Everything else flows from that.

I want to point out something. In German and Italian, the words people use to discuss the situation in the US should get your attention. Google them.

If you believe the government is in the right, then you should push for transparent investigations. Innocent people don't hide evidence and don't block investigations. I don't want to hear partisan talking points from drones. Transparent investigations are mandatory.

1/8 I'm noticing something in the online discourse. There was plenty of discussion about the shooting of Renee Good in conservative spaces, but not much disagreement about whether it was lawful. That is not the case with Alex Pretti.

Told you. I’m a gun owner. We’re not one political persuasion and most are irritated AF with ammosexuals. Don’t rule out people who would work with you. You lose when you don’t try.

1/3 If lawful carry serves as a justification for lethal force, then we don't actually have a right to carry. A right that can be used as a retroactive justification for killing a person exercising it is not a right in any meaningful sense. You could build a broad coalition on that.

1/7 U.S. scientific innovation cannot recover from this in the near future. For a while, it was reversible. Not anymore. The best-case scenario is that we recover within a decade, but at that point, competitors will likely have eclipsed us.

I did not expect U.S. decline to be a story of suicide.

If you want to get away with something, you don’t demand “Let me get away with this.” You create the situation that leads others to arrive at that conclusion on their own.

Get the judge and jury to commit the same crime. Once they do, silence becomes the only rational choice.
