This is why I get so angry about anticipatory compliance. So many of these EOs are being overturned. This is good news, and it means our advocacy is making a difference! Keep it up!
NSF is re-hiring nearly all fired probationary employees following an OPM directive and a Friday judge order.

This is 84/86 probationary staff being hired back; 84 "experts" are still terminated

Trump and RFK have talked a lot about addressing chronic illness. But their early actions show otherwise.

Many infections cause chronic illness. Cutting the Long COVID advisory committee, shows that they will ignore a significant cause of chronic illness for many.

As Republicans show their fangs and bring shame to the country over bathrooms, Congresswoman McBride is gracious. It’s such an unflattering contrast for Republicans and she makes them look like rabid fools.

Congresswoman McBride Announces She Will Comply With Rules Declaring Her a Man
The decision comes after Mike Johnson declared that transgender people are not allowed in bathrooms of their gender identity under the provision that he "controls the facilities."

Feels like things are taking off

I’m not sure I feel like living through twin pandemics with young kids and a Public Health establishment that don’t give a squawk about the precautionary principle
New from California's health department, now probing with CDC first U.S. case of bird flu in a child

- "not likely infectious"
- "also positive for respiratory viruses"
- "a possible exposure to wild birds"
- "attended daycare with mild symptoms"

The party of strict constructionists is being tested. I hope, but don’t expect, that they will pass the test.

I would say that it is surprising to see people rushing to assuage the MAGA movement. I’ve already seen public figures I respect express openness to RFK. It’s not what I would do.

RFK Jr. is a massive public health threat
Dems like Jared Polis shouldn't pretend pretend otherwise.
