So much of the Right-wing alt-media infrastructure is funded by the Ivermectin-pushers and the supplement industry. Saying diseases are harmless doesn't pay, so they always end up pivoting to "actually it's really bad but conventional medicine makes it worse so buy my bullshit cute"

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Even if you take the most lenient possible interpretation -- that SCOTUS has made it increasingly hard to prosecute bribery and corruption -- you still have to ask what kind of crooked-ass administration hires a guy who just took $50k cash.

another big win for the application of New York §70-a anti-SLAPP counter-claims to recover attorney fees in SDNY, from an opinion by Judge Dale Ho in Watson vs. Doe opinion: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us... docket: www.courtlistener.com/docket/85129...

There will never be another mayor in our lifetimes as, uh, entertaining as this guy.

Hey, turns out we recommend the Hep B birth dose for a reason. www.statnews.com/2025/09/11/n...

What’s the common factor? Wait, I’m trying to think. Do I hear banjos? 🤔

one of the clearest signs you're dealing with a strong and principled political movement is when they want to make it illegal to make fun of them

Honestly, relying on copy paste errors to detect scientific fraud was never a foolproof strategy

I really can’t tell anymore if they believe the things that they are saying or this is all just a weird performancebut anyway here’s david sacks calling paul graham a leftist

The last day for public comment on this topic is Monday, Sept 15. It’s time to unleash science. 3/3 Gift link to op-ed: www.wsj.com/opinion/acad... NIH Request for Information: grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

idk if you've seen this south korean editorial that ran a few days ago. google translate version scorched my eyebrows www.hani.co.kr/arti/opinion...

The Dept. of Education has pulled funding for programs in 8 states that support students with both hearing and vision loss. A staffer at one program says he was told the Trump admin. took issue with 2 words on the grant application: “transition" and “privilege": www.propublica.org/article/trum...

This man is not well. He has become obsessed with “saving” every country through right wing politics. He’s trying to create as many offspring as possible to spread his superior genome. He wants to upload his brain into a computer that lives on Mars

I hadn’t seen this. Kirk, the moderate free speech guy who did politics the right way per some liberals (!), called for Biden to be executed. Meanwhile Joe Biden put out a very strong statement condemning Kirk’s killing. Both sides!

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"

But don’t call them Nazis.

Anyone wanting actually-gets-this-shit type analysis of the internet-side of this situation, I recommend this and his new podcast episode ... podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...

Kash Patel fired the 'legendary' special agent in charge of Utah's FBI divison just a month before she would have led the ongoing manhunt for Charlie Kirk's assassin.

Deeply cruel and enormously wasteful. About 1.5 million women & couples could have used these supplies to avoid unintended pregnancy. Instead, at taxpayer expense, the Trump administration incinerated nearly $10M worth of contraceptive supplies, despite offers from multiple orgs to distribute.

It really is so striking how much The Discourse operates untethered from…what we actually know. The killer is still at large! We have no idea who did it! Seems pretty important to get that sorted.

You’re just not allowed to do journalism if it displeases MAGA

This is a friend of mine and the median normie voter and exactly why it's so weird people are flying flags at half mast and op-eds are being written.

David Rose was a Black Marine veteran with 2 children and a third on the way. He was shot and killed as a police officer responding to the attack on the CDC by an anti vaxxer lone gunman. This was what he got for his service & sacrifice: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Found the clip.

the rightwing loves to be like “this is the moment we become the nazi party”

Opinion | Charlie Kirk's blood is on the hands of Democrats who failed to convince their Republican colleagues to support gun control.

Kash Patel is out of his depth

🧵 I know it's ridiculous, but when he's talking mitochondrial challenges & inflammation, he's again referring to his idea of vaccine-induced autism. Let me explain.

I wrote about the tragic death of Adam Raine and the venal negligence of "AI Safety." www.argmin.net/p/the-banal-...

Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:

I learned a new word this weekend: dirigisme.

I love Tom Lehrer and will say something else about him later probably but I just wanted to point out that he outlived the original author of his New York Times obituary.

I'm not going to repost any of the insane antisemitic conspiracy bullshit that grok is spewing today, but it highlights how absolutely essentially is that we not let LLMs become a form of epistemic grounding for our society.

not a good look @utoronto.ca @aledmedwards.bsky.social forbetterscience.com/2025/07/04/s...

We can't become numb to this lunacy. Republicans can't let anti-vaxxers like Lyn Redwood help OVERSEE vaccine safety. She will spread even more dangerous lies about vaccines—and she’s going to get kids killed. She doesn't belong anywhere near CDC. My full statement. ⬇️

It looks like Valley Electronics settled with Chelsea Polis @cbpolis.bsky.social First Buhl, now Polis.. the New York anti-SLAPP laws continue to work as intended! @bradhoylmansigal.bsky.social @matthewschafer.bsky.social

A generation of infants are being born HIV+ today who should have been born HIV-free because one of the principal propagandists of AI bullshit in the world dismantled PEPFAR and USAID.

In case you were still unclear what “meritocracy” means now: “The draft executive order calls for ending the foreign service exam for aspiring diplomats, and it lays out new criteria for hiring, including “alignment with the president’s foreign policy vision.”

Our administration will stand for two things: Fighting antisemitism and stopping the Soros-funded, Hollywood-controlling, migration-orchestrating, well-poisoning, global banking cabal of rootless cosmopolitans from destroying our Christian way of life. by J.D. Vance

really wish more people would grasp that nature is doing GOFROC at BSL-0 literally at every single moment

This letter is just freakishly incoherent and inappropriate. It’s what you would get if you put, like, Tim Pool or Ben Shapiro into a US Attorney’s chair, made them drink a quart of bourbon, and told them to get angry at something

Demanding "viewpoint diversity" in peer-reviewed medical science journals is literally just DEI for wrong people. Bad experiements and incorrect analyses shouldn't face discrimination, right?
