I keep trying to think of some withering remark, but god damn if this doesn’t leave me speechless.

A political prisoner in other words.
Amid all the other news, it's easy to become inured to the basic facts here. Öztürk:
-Is not accused of committing any crime
-Is nonviolent
-Was in this country legally
-Merely engaged in speech that the administration objects to
-Has been locked up for six weeks
-Is not accused of committing any crime
-Is nonviolent
-Was in this country legally
-Merely engaged in speech that the administration objects to
-Has been locked up for six weeks
Now from Öztürk’s ACLU lawyer Esha Bhandari:
“Rümeysa Öztürk’s case is unprecedented and shocking. She has been held behind bars for six weeks while her health deteriorates for writing an op-ed.”

I think I take a lot of the RFK stuff pretty personally because as a Dipshit-American I have a lot of quasi-magical beliefs about how my body works and it really pisses me off to see someone turn this joyful practice to evil

VP lecturing "the Europeans" again:
"...if the Europeans had been a little more independent, and a little more willing to stand up, then maybe we could have saved the entire world from the strategic disaster that was the American-led invasion of Iraq."
Yes, pity Paris and Berlin were so pro-war...

Not surprising. I hope that the Texas leg does something about this.
NEW: Pregnancy became far more dangerous in Texas after the state banned abortion, according to ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis, which found the sepsis rate for women hospitalized as they miscarried in the 2nd trimester shot up by more than 50%.

ProPublica’s first-of-its-kind analysis is the most detailed look yet into a rise in life-threatening complications for women experiencing pregnancy loss under Texas’ abortion ban.

Very important paper:
2 billion dollars could save approx 500,000 children from dying from malaria.
That's a very high ROI, easy to scale, and an issue we shouldn't drag our feet on.
It took years of funding struggles to develop malaria vaccines in the first place. We can't let that happen again.
