My takeaway is these politicians know something about Trump's medical condition that we don't. Trump is very sick, probably dying— and they're betting that he won't last out his term. They're carving out space in the post-Trump MAGA world. MTG is distancing herself from the Vance 2028 camp.

I can not stress this enough: 1) The Telegraph misrepresents our paper (“inactivate within an hour”) 2) They claim this discredits the zero-covid community 3) They ignore our much more impactful follow-up article that contradicts their claim

As I guessed last week, Tucker Carlson’s interview with Nick Fuentes dropped tonight. After 5+ years of pushing the Overton window Fuentes is no longer untouchable- he’s in the mainstream, on the biggest MAGA platform. Open, unabashed Hitlerism is no longer too far for today’s conservative movement

New from me: Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s seething attacks on medicine are a part of a longstanding fascist fear of modernity, which has now gained traction due to the real failures of the medical and food systems. And all the while, anti-science arguments help justify mass austerity that hurts us all.
