“In a paper published in Nature Communications, the researchers have shown for the 1st time that mRNA can be delivered into the cells where HIV is hiding, by encasing it in a tiny, specially formulated fat bubble. The mRNA then instructs the cells to reveal the virus.”

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here.

because of the deep love that I have for this country, for its Constitution, and for its beautifully radiant diversity—yes, I hate this President.

When social media exposes traditional media’s deceit, it’s time for independent journalists to investigate why the press is backing a president who undermines free press—and is it coordinated?

This is a reminder that no one can convince Trump voters to no longer support Trump, better than Trump can.

Thank you, Jim Acosta.
Thank you for leaving CNN.
You have always been far better than that network.

We’re looking forward to your great work on Substack.

Look, I don’t have a clue what’s coming or how to best prepare and I’m not sure any of us truly do.

What I do know, is that I’m not letting this bastard win.

BREAKING -- Trump RAISES prescription drug costs.

He just reversed all the cost caps that had been negotiated for anyone on Medicare or Medicaid -- over 120 MILLION Americans.

He's pro Big Pharma -- and pro Big Insurance.

He doesn't care about you. It was all LIES.

Trump is the consequence rather than the cause of the anti-democratic surge.

The "he's not gonna listen to her" reactions are missing many points. Lots of other people are also hearing it. Lots of people can see him hearing it, then weigh what she's said with what he'll do. Lots of people can see her refusal to surrender these ancient teachings to the latest face of empire
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Trump literally broke TikTok so he could take credit for fixing it.

It's disgusting. It's gaslighting. It's scamming & cheating.

He's like a drug dealer who steals your stash and then helps you look for it.

If you’re feeling despair today, I understand.

But Trump’s second term will expose a reality that's been hidden from many Americans: the raw, stinking power of the American oligarchy.

I’m hopeful that America will see this reality for what it is and respond to it. youtu.be/bepjl3orz1A?...
