Derrick Rose has had one helluva retirement rollout in Chicago this week.

He gave out flowers to thousands of fans at Rose’s Flower Shop, launched a new garden pollination initiative in his native Englewood and played his last basketball game with his son at Simeon.

Today is #WorldSickleCellDiseaseDay.

Sickle cell disease affects millions, but too many still face delayed diagnosis and limited access to care. Today, ASH raises awareness and invites you to be part of the progress. 🧵👇

Took a leap of faith and planted the native wisteria frutescens in my tiny little semi shaded garden in Chicago. So far it seems happy! And the huge purple flowers make me happy.

What happens in the Arctic doesn't stay in the Arctic. It affects us all.
The Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme (AMAP) has released their Summary Arctic Climate Change Update. Read it: www.amap.no/documents/do...
Nobody can later say they weren't warned, again and again.

MAHA is a fraud. Lead is a neurotoxin and they are abandoning children being poisoned
3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie).

Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development
CDC denies help for lead poisoning in Milwaukee schools due to layoffs
The CDC rejected a request for help "due to the complete loss" of their lead poisoning experts.

BREAKING from @science.org: The Trump admin is seeking to kill nearly all climate research at NOAA, its climate science agency.

Its near-final budget proposal would end all NOAA research labs, academic institutes, and regional climate centers. And it wants to fully end the NOAA Research division.

The CDC Buried a #Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations.
The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under Secretary Kennedy a longtime critic of vaccines.

NOW: motion hearing underway in Judge Boasberg's court on whether to vacate his TRO barring the Trump admin from deporting people under the Alien Enemies Act.

JUDGE: "Did you not understand my statements in that hearing? Did you tell DHS it was an order from me to turn the planes around?"
