Growing number of experts say that Trump is providing Russia with intelligence against Ukraine. Russian forces in Kursk miraculously had extremely precise coordinates for Ukrainian troop locations, logistics and ammo depots in Kursk after Trump cut off aid. A day before Russia was on the back foot.

Looking at #CROI2025 program and seeing lots of withdrawn work, am assuming mainly from CDC folks who were presenting their work. Let that sink in, the CDC can’t present at one of the biggest HIV research conference in the world…this is what US research looks like now

Global cooperation wasn’t born from goodwill—it was forged from the wreckage of WWII, built on the reality that dignity for all is essential for peace.
In 2 weeks, Trump/Musk have dismantled that infrastructure—destroying USAID, withdrawing from WHO, gutting what keeps the world stable.
