I am working out of a public library and there are a good number of people who seem to be on hard times using the facilities for various reasons like job searching, entertainment, charging peripherals, using the bathroom, etc., and I am struck by how important it is that libraries continue to exist

The 26-year-old Ohioan has not let his rare genetic condition prevent him from having a rich life. But Trump’s second administration is creating new risks to his fragile health.

Exquisite response by Georgetown Dean to interim USA Ed Martin
On Martin's threat letter not to hire grads until Martin approves of law school curriculum:
"The constitutional violation behind this threat is clear, as is the attack on the University’s mission as a Jesuit and Catholic institution."

After the State of the State yesterday, I headed over to a roundtable discussion to hear how pharmacy benefit managers have driven the cost of prescription drugs up at the expense of families.
This is an industry that needs regulation.
Illinoisans need and deserve nothing less.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

As activities related to MoCRA were ramping up this could have significant impacts to cosmetic safety and regulation.

Remember what I said about paying attention to what your state is up to regarding vaccines? Montana is about to ban mRNA vaccines. A local family physician egregiously lied and said, “mRNA vaccines are the most destructive and lethal medical products that have ever been used in medical history”.
