I think something people struggle with that I personally can't relate to is that nothing really shuts down someone trying to strong-arm you like a resolute, challenging "no, you're not going to do that".

The Roberts Court is overtly devoted, as a matter of judicial and political philosophy, to supporting the policy agenda of Donald Trump. These are DISCRETIONARY rulings - the Court is ruling, repeatedly and usually without explanation, that EQUITY requires that Trump’s agenda advance.
Here's my updated chart of #SCOTUS's rulings to date on emergency applications from the Trump administration.

Breaking news: The White House selected Jim O’Neill, a top deputy to RFK Jr., to serve as acting head of the CDC after a clash over vaccine policy ended in the departure of several agency leaders.
White House taps top RFK Jr. deputy as acting CDC director
The decision comes a day after Trump fired Susan Monarez, the Senate-confirmed CDC director, prompting a series of resignations of other top officials there.

Trump and RFK Jr. hand picked Susan Monarez to lead the CDC. Now, they are trying to force her out for refusing to rubber stamp their anti-vaccine conspiracy theories. This administration is so hellbent on killing people that even their own nominees are saying no. It must end.

In a normal world, the HHS Secty would rush home from his Alaska fishing trip after an attack like this. A normal POTUS would also weigh in after govt workers were terrorized & a police officer killed. But as the CDC employees in this piece noted, RFK is to blame. So is Trump.
Exclusive: CDC Director Susan Monarez met with its vaccine-focused center to talk about yesterday’s shooting. I listened to a recording. Scientists and officials are shaken & pointing fingers at RFK Jr. Many said his vilification and misinfo turned them into targets. www.msnbc.com/opinion/anal...
A deadly shooting at the CDC shook its scientists. Now they want answers from RFK Jr.
CDC Director Susan Monarez convened an online all-hands meeting of the agency division that focuses on vaccines, and employees called out Kennedy’s rhetoric specifically.

This was Vin Scully's call of Henry Aaron's 715th home run. Tonight Major League Baseball cut off the first sentence, starting it with the "What a marvelous moment" part because they don't want to anger the white supremacists who run our country and of whom Rob Manfred is an ardent supporter.
