Around this time of year, listening to “Same Ol Lang Syne” is a must. This year, I learned that Dan Fogelberg’s background vocals were provided by…Emmylou Harris, Don Henley, Glen Frey, and Joni fricken Mitchell.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

⚠️TYLENOL & AUTISM—RFK Jr & Trump are wrong—the largest best study in the world in 2.5 MILLION KIDS—found no increased autism risk with acetaminophen (aka paracetamol/Tylenol). A crude analysis found only a tiny 5% risk, but once you adjust via sibling controls, the even tiny 5% risk vaporizes to 0%📉

Keep reading banned books. And thank your librarian.
Two high schoolers wrote a love letter about their high school librarian and the banned books club they're part of. This is really moving and thoughtful and a reminder that kids know exactly what the hell is going on right now.

Accepting the extremist claim that the public health response to COVID was "Kafkaesque" as true is, well, Kafkaesque.
Here's a better response to RFK's destruction of our public health system than what Senator Schatz is offering here, from JB Pritzker (with some additional ideas thrown in from me and public health experts):

Dear CDC and scientists, thank you for speaking out. We stand with you.
I have never seen so many public servants protest the mismanagement of a government. Trumpists will point to this as proof of the deep state, but the reality is that these are professionals who are desperately trying to get the public to understand how bad things are.

This is patently unconstitutional. For one, 18 USC § 700 has been void since Texas v. Johnson (1989) and United States v. Eichman (1990) under the First Amendment. Second, there is no federal authority for an anti-flag burning statute. The national government does not have a general police power.
