No. Giving Trump a “win” here would indelibly stain @harvard.edu, and damage it deeply in the eyes of its myriad constituencies (particularly its alumni, myself included, who would revolt), not to mention the nation and the world. ...

A 31-year old unvaccinated man has just died from measles in Chihuahua, Mexico. His infection is reported to be related to the Texas outbreak.

Four unvaccinated people have died in this measles outbreak so far.

The only thing that prevents measles is the MMR vaccine.

I don't know why it took me so long but I finally downloaded Libby to my phone, and so I get library AUDIOBOOKS on my phone.

On demand. Whenever I want them. For free.

1. Libraries so awesome
2. THE WORLD IS MY OYSTER.

Just because you never use the library, that doesn’t mean you don’t benefit by having them in your community.

Libby and Hoopla are great apps that use your library card to let you read digital books and listen to audiobooks. Even if you never physically go, it's so worth it.

Public Libraries are COOL.

Get yourself a library card (IT'S FREE) and get all the books you can (IT'S ALSO FREE)!

Leave it to a dipshit who’s never read a book in his life to cut support for libraries. These people are just a bunch of knuckle-dragging trolls.

You should get a library card if you don’t have one already. Then get the apps Libby and Hoopla. There you can download audiobooks and ebooks. So even if you don’t go to your local library a lot, you can still support them and the authors you love.

I keep saying Dems need to do a daily briefing on Capitol Hill and fill the void, fact check the WH. Hire Pete Buttigeig and give him a staff to do this.

Hey, check your local libraries for free access to news sources that you might otherwise have to pay for.

Many libraries offer online access and you can even copy article links and share them. 👍

No one's blaming Democrats for causing this crisis, but yes, many of them are failing to meet this moment.

One Democratic senator could bring the chamber to a halt. House Dems can go to fed agencies being gutted by Musk with cameras in tow. Governors can push back. State AGs can bring lawsuits.

in addition to musk stealing the data for his own purposes, I imagine that they think they can simply shut off payments to whoever doesn’t comply. I would not be shocked if they tried to turn off Social Security for an entire state of course that’s dissolution of the union territory.
NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

Musk's cost-cutting process is this: First, he asks to cut off payments. Then his people go line-by-line to justify expenses. If they can't, the expense is cut or severely reduced. Payments are withheld to payee, who either accept cut rates or is dared to take Musk to court.
