The Zohran press conference is your regular reminder that the entire administration folds like tissue paper at the slightest hint of confidence and conviction, and thus the fact that national democrats are playing a game of capitulation and weakness is exactly why they're all getting away with it

Mamdani getting Trump to back down & even *compliment* him costs Mamdani absolutely nothing (& indeed actually shows his skills) & probably also saves a lot of vulnerable ppl in this city a trememndous amount of pain if it means Trump is less inclined to act shitty towards us bc of this meeting

Trump: Just say yes, it's easier than explaining.

Periodic reminder to the media and the Dems and the Universities that standing up to Trump and sticking to your guns earns you a lot more respect from this guy than just handing your money and balls to him in a shoebox

New from me: I talked to CDC staffers about the new vaccines and autism page. They said things like:

“The best way I can put it is it feels like we’re on a hijacked airplane.”

“I think people are starting to see that we can’t fulfill our mission here.”

Someone in the house should introduce an impeachment resolution against RFK
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.

In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

Leaks of the 28 point peace plan are circulating right now and I cannot even begin to articulate how bad it is for everyone except Russia. It literally states that NATO will not expand ANYMORE
NEW: Trump's full 28-point Ukraine-Russia peace plan would force Kyiv to give up additional territory in the east, cap the size of its military, and agree it will never join NATO
Exclusive: Trump's full 28-point Ukraine-Russia peace plan
The full plan was obtained by Axios and verified by Ukrainian and U.S. officials.

Chief Justice John Roberts rigged our democracy, helped Trump retake power, and is now discarding legal and constitutional constraints on Trump's actions.

But Roberts needs Trump, too. This symbiotic relationship means there is no hope for course correction.

This is all John Roberts’ fault
Trump owes his corrupt and abusive reign to one man.

To non-lawyers: this level of incompetence is BREATHTAKING. It is absolutely incomprehensible. This is a "mistake" that will be taught in criminal procedure classes for GENERATIONS.
NEWS: During a hearing in federal court in VA, prosecutors confirmed that the operative indictment in the case against James Comey was never shown to or voted on by the entire grand jury before it was presented in open court.

Defense counsel argued that’s a complete bar to further prosecution

I've heard of this shit happening but I don't understand why they post ghost jobs in the first place? Is it to make it appear that the company is more successful than it is? Or is this more a "sell resumes and personal data to AI" honeytrap?
Approximately 30% of all job postings are fake, with millions of ghost jobs making a tough hiring process even worse.
