Excellent reporting by @stephanienolen.bsky.social on the resurgence of #Diphteria in displaced populations, with a focus on #Somalia. The resurgence of this infectious disease is happening globally due to declining vaccination rates.

So turns out it's not a $400m deal Australia has done with Nauru - it's a $2.5 billion over the next 30 years 🤯

Angry nuclear lobby backs off as landmark SMR deal confirms CSIRO’s bleak cost estimates
Nuclear critics of the GenCost report have gone quiet, perhaps because the first real western contract for SMRs has proved the CSIRO’s cost estimates to be spot on.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist @nhannahjones.bsky.social argues Trump’s attacks against DEI are about “dismantling our ability to integrate our organizations, bring about equality and enforce civil rights." He's "creating a narrative that allows for the stripping of Black people's rights."
Nikole Hannah-Jones: Trump is ‘Eradicating the enforcement mechanisms for our civil rights’
Trump has dismantled over 60 years worth of civil rights progress over the course of two months, says Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist and creator of the 1619 Project Nikole Hannah-Jones. While Trump “doesn’t have the ability to overturn the 1964 Civil Rights Act or The Voting Rights Act or The Fair Housing Act,” he’s instead upended civil rights enforcement mechanisms. Which she says, “sends the message that if you discriminate, there’s no one in the federal government that’s going to enforce the law.” The administration is “creating a narrative that allows [for] a stripping of Black people’s rights”, says Hannah-Jones.

I truly hope this puts a definitive end to the perpetual insistence by Democrats that they can compromise with Republicans. You can't. These people are extreme, depraved, and shameless. They just stripped healthcare from 17 million people to give themselves a tax cut.

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.
That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.
