This is a story about how America’s world-leading cancer and dementia research system was destroyed by frauds and naifs who broke the law.
There must be consequences.

Some incredible details in this piece
*one DOGE faction was planning the future of the US government at a venture capital firm
*illegally communicating on Signal to avoid transparency laws was deeply embedded into organizational culture to be taken for granted

It’s all like watching two train wrecks get in a train wreck but the fake article about her own affair just sums every little part of it up.

The thing that's always frustrated the right wing ideologues who've glommed onto Trump is that he doesn't have the attention span to actually be a committed ideological warrior. He can scream all the right culture war shit, but it's just WWE pugilistic showmanship. He basically has no belief system.

Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?
LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president

When a President calls for the death of lawmakers protecting the oath military members take to the Constitution (NOT the President), you are watching a full-blown Constitutional Crisis. This is the ultimate test of our democracy. We cannot look away.

The Wonky Wolf is on display at Leeds City Museum & is a famous icon of the Roman history in the region.
It's also a reminder that no-one viewing your creation a thousand years from now will know if that was your BEST or your WORST work.
Might as well have fun with it, eh?

Let's learn about the Wonky Wolf of Leeds.
Discovered 1840 in Aldborough, North Yorkshire, the mosaic dates to ~300 AD & probably represents a Roman provincial artist's attempt to tell the story of Romulus and Remus being suckled by a she-wolf, the founding myth of Rome.

The party that promised "free speech on campus" has made sure there can be no free speech on campuses.
This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.
