This thread to see one of the many detailed lies promulgated by one of the trump/rfk jr "leaders" of our federal health & medical agencies
I have been watching this Livestream.
Lots of interesting topics with loads of misinformation, poor policy development, and evidence of selection bias.
Here is a minor, insignificant point that still drove me nuts.

Max Perutz was NOT an example of someone with a great idea who went against the establishment wisdom to solve an important problem that he had uniquely identified.
He was part of an organized team working on this problem. He got lots of help.

🚨 The Senate has agreed to a deal to vote on 5/6 full appropriations bills and replace the DHS funding measure with a 2-week stopgap bill, per multiple sources. That gives time to negotiate on the Dem demands for ICE and CBP restraints.
