The first two episodes of The Pitt drop tonight on Max. It filled a big ER-shaped hole on my viewing heart: www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...
'The Pitt' Isn't 'ER.' But It Could Be Nearly as Good
Max hospital drama starring Noah Wyle draws from the same creative team as the longtime NBC series and revives a TV formula that was on life support.

It's not clear to me that Cannon has jurisdiction to do this. She has already dismissed the case & it's on appeal to the 11th Circuit. That may be why Trump's co-defendants filed there as well. Jurisdiction over any further action in the case is now in their hands.

John Kennedy is such a harsh, snippy little man. Ever the partisan, pouncing to score petty, political points — even in the wake of an American tragedy.
Reporter: NBC is here on the right
Kennedy: That’s an unusual position
Reporter: I don’t get it
Kennedy: You wouldn’t

This is dumb. Did Trump's pardon of Charles Kushner include anyone else? Did his pardons of Roger Stone & Paul Manafort apply to his former lawyer Michael Cohen? Pardons apply only to the individual they are meant for &, in a properly functioning system, each is considered on its merits.

I don't care what RFK Jr. says or thinks about chronic disease or whatever. Nothing could outweigh the damage this guy could do to national health. @brandyzadrozny.bsky.social has dug up a slew of new outrages. There's no end to the dangers he poses.
New: Recordings from private autism conferences show Trump HHS pick Robert F. Kennedy Jr. vilifying & conspiracy theorizing about agencies he's set to lead. Videos show RFK Jr comparing CDC vaccine programs to "Nazi death camps" & calling for researchers to be jailed. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
RFK Jr. attacked the CDC’s ‘fascism’ and likened vaccinating children to abuse by the Catholic Church
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump’s pick for Health and Human Services secretary, also argued for jailing vaccine scientists in previously unreported comments at autism conferences.
