Scientists have just cured pancreatic cancer in some patients with personalized mRNA vaccines. Pancreatic cancer. And this Trump administration wants to throw it all away.

They’re throwing away a cure for cancer.

Whenever anti-trans panic gets whipped up, more of these stories happen.
Walmart called the police on a cis-woman using the women's bathroom.

Even after proving she's a woman, "one deputy continued to question her appearance, insisting she 'looked like a man.'"

Missed this yesterday.

19 Democrats (including Chuck Schumer.....) joined Republicans in voting to repeal a Biden rule requiring cryptocurrency brokers to adhere to the same tax reporting rules as stock brokers.

A yes vote is a pro-fraud, pro-tax-evasion vote here.

SCOOP: Now that Linda McMahon is confirmed/sworn in as secretary, Trump will be imminently issuing an executive order eliminating the Department of Education.

I’ve obtained a draft of an email that McMahon will be sending to staff re: the EO and the department’s “final mission”.

Here is a portion:

Musk’s status as a “special government employee” limits him to 130 days in the executive branch. However, despite working daily—documented by his own X posts—they claim he only works one day a week, effectively stretching his limit to 130 weeks. This needs to be brought to Congress—please share.

I don't really see this getting reported anywhere, but judging by NextDoor, NYSEG--which provides electricity for a great deal of upstate NY--has basically tripled/quadrupled its prices in the dead of winter.

AOC is a fundraising juggernaut precisely because most of her communications are NOT fundraising pitches, but things that people actually want to hear. She is able to build a huge audience while other politicians are racing to be added to people's spam filters.

Cuomo and Adams are two of the Democratic Parties most trumpy figures, and in a deeply Democratic city, it’s hard to imagine a better way to strengthen Trump than letting either one of them anywhere near power.

For the first time in over 20 years, Israel has deployed tanks in the West Bank, after expelling 40,000 Palestinians from refugee camps.

This is a prelude to full annexation, and makes a mockery of the ceasefire agreement that Israel continues to violate. [1/3]

Arsenal are as close to 8th on points as they are to 1st.

Liverpool have seven of their last 11 games at home.

And now you're gonna believe us. Up the Reds.

Social Security has a payment accuracy rate of over 99 percent. Only 0.3 percent of Social Security benefits are improper payments, which are typically caused by mistakes or delays.
