@rokhanna.bsky.social: Trump knows he has to answer a lot of questions about Epstein. If the Clintons are willing to testify, then any rich and powerful person in America should.

We need a clearing of this elite Epstein class and a new moral beginning.

GOP Sen Lummis says she’s changed her mind after the new Epstein revelations today: “Initially my reaction to all this was, I don’t care. I don’t see what the big deal is. But now I see what the big deal is. The members of Congress who were pushing this were not wrong!”

“Isn’t it very dangerous [to remove] the recommendations for certain infant vaccines… What, I wondered, are the consequences of under-vaccinating millions of babies in a country where working parents have no other choice but to put their literal newborns in a room full of other babies all day?”
The new childhood vaccine guidelines have a paid leave problem
Norway, Denmark, and other countries with fewer childhood vaccines have another thing in common: paid parental leave.

Little to add to Trump's Endangerment Finding move that hasn't already been said, but here's the key bit: Framing matters.

This isn't "economics" vs climate, or some kind of noble "cost-cutting" crusade.

It's a handout to narrow fossil interests, counter to economic forces.

In the moments after the Big Bang, most of the visible matter in the present-day Universe existed as a hot ‘soup’ that included fundamental particles called quarks

Particle collisions cast light on how matter forms from seemingly empty space
Fundamental particles called quarks can be created in quantum-correlated pairs. These correlations can be passed on to larger particles that form from the quarks.

Trump is pushing Ukraine to sign a peace deal and have this war stopped before America's midterm elections. This is delusional since Russia won't even agree to a ceasefire and doesn't actually want to stop this war.
