He wore the cheesehead hat in WI. Spent $20 million. Paid people to sign petitions. Paid people to canvas. Did million dollar giveaways. A rally. TV interviews. But I guess people in Wisconsin didn’t appreciate an oligarch trying to buy their civil liberties.

Happy Independence Day Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Few peoples have (re)gained their sovereignty through greater adversity & fewer still have had to continue to defend it for as long as the citizens of BiH. But in vain do her adversaries labor.

Courage & joy to all free peoples.

Trump and Vance have repeatedly claimed that Zelensky has not been sufficiently grateful for U.S. support throughout the war.

We compiled instances where Zelensky has publicly expressed gratitude to the U.S., its people, and its leadership for being Ukraine’s largest supporter.

Just what we need: H5N1 bird flu adapting to mammals just as America is adapting to a pandemic-friendly health secretary who doesn't believe in vaccines.
#USDA posted an analysis of the D1.1 #H5N1 #birdflu viruses that infected Nevada cows — the new spillover event. They spotted a mutation in the PB2 gene that is associated with mammalian adaptation. What's this mean? Dunno. But 2 spillovers means more could come. www.aphis.usda.gov/sites/defaul...

In case folks are interested in contacting their congresspeople about the NIH indirect cuts with some estimates of what they would mean for institutions in their state, here are some estimates based on published F&A rates and funding ... let me know if you want a particular state

Federal employees can and should kick doge out of their buildings.

Much of this appears to be illegal. Federal workers, including at NIH and NSF, should make them prove that they have legal authority. Call your senator or congressional office for help.
@raskin.house.gov’s office has many resources.

Hey, guess what has suddenly disappeared from the HHS website?

Any mention of this $306M investment in pandemic flu preparedness that was approved in the last days of the Biden administration.

Not DEI. Not USAID. Our surveillance & response program around H5N1.

Right on.
I’m all for the Democrats embracing populism and ditching neoliberalism. I just want someone to explain how that works in a post-Citizens United environment. Dem populist hero Sherrod Brown was beaten by a Mercedes dealer in Ohio because he was swamped by crypto super pac cash.
