Hand soaps are now being recalled because they can cause serious infection including sepsis and death.
In “healthy” individuals with minor cuts they will likely cause localized infection, but in immune compromised people it could be fatal.

Left-wing censorship was a fantasy, but the right-wing censorship is real, unconstitutional, and murderous. There was no majority anti-conservative social media bias or casual forced use of words like “birthing person.” But stripping protest rights and official language is actual deadly censorship

This BBC graphic is a good way to show why reciprocal 25% tariffs will cause prices on some goods to go up far more than 25%.
A piston used in a car engine made in Michigan will cross the U.S. border twice, and will be taxed 25% each time.
Some products cross the U.S. border even more than that.

1. Happening now, the United States Senate is considering S9, a bill that would ban transgender people from playing sports of their gender identity from chess to darts and everything in between.
It could result in genital exams and more.

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.

Reminder: Donald Trump asked to play the President in SharkNado 3.
He was told that they had given the role to Mark Cuban, but he could be Vice President.
He flew into a rage and soon after announced he was running for President for real.

Genuinely confused, if the Ex Orders aren't legally binding and are even being stopped by judges, why are so many scientific orgs rushing to implement them? Why not refuse, or better yet, organise to do so en-masse? Is there any joint leadership emerging?
