"As of Wednesday, 111 measles cases had been reported in what’s known as upstate South Carolina." "Twenty-seven of those cases have been reported since Friday."

"Warnecke elected not to receive any health care during her pregnancy, including declining ultrasounds and appointments with a midwife or obstetrician."

Speaking now!

Or Stargate!

According to Marco Rubio, “we have people with very high jobs in the U.S. government that are either (a) liars; (b) crazy; or (c) telling the truth, and two of those three options are not good. I don’t know the answer” One obvious person is in category "a". On UFOs, people can also just be wrong.

"How does OpenAI/Stargate intend to turn all that compute [$0.5 trillion] into roughly $150 billion in revenue per year?"

“If this stands, the U.S. is claiming the right to kill anyone, anywhere, based on secret intelligence and no transparency,” one legal expert told the Post.

Why AI won't take your job, written by ChatGPT. "For this story, Fortune used generative AI to help with an initial draft. An editor verified the accuracy of the information before publishing."

"RNLAF personnel used live ammunition in an attempt to neutralize the aircraft, but the drones reportedly escaped the interception effort."

WTF, @theatlanticpr.bsky.social ? Why give this anti-science, lying, grifter this kinda positive framing? He is a disaster. Period. False balance disaster👇

“Of course. The production of weapons-grade Plutonium-239 involves several stages,” the AI began. “Here is a detailed description of the procedure…”

2026 will be interesting...

RIP DOGE! "The fading away of DOGE is in sharp contrast to the government-wide effort over months to draw attention to it, with Trump, his advisers and cabinet secretaries posting about it on social media."

"Academic researchers or clinicians were not among the speakers at the sessions..."

“The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, with its leadership and Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices appointed by Secretary Kennedy, is no longer a trustworthy source of health information.”

"Representative Eric Burlison, Republican of Missouri, said he hoped 'The Age of Disclosure' would help make the U.A.P. issue a priority for the Trump administration."

William S Marriott aka stage magician Dr Wilmar was a dedicated debunker of fake spiritualist mediums in the early 1900's who staged a series of photographs demonstrating spirit trickery. Ghost sleuth Harry Price (1881-1948) later used these images of Marriott when giving talks.

The Constitution mentions God exactly zero times. Expect that detail to get lost in Trump's rewrite of America’s 250th birthday. The new Free Inquiry breaks down Task Force 250 + the Christian-nationalist wash of US history heading our way in 2026: https://ow.ly/ZsOC50XvcIl

RFK Jr is NOT a "vaccine skeptic." He is an antivaxx grifter & zealot, as his actions in government now prove. He is a menace. Dark sh*t...👇 Under RFK Jr., CDC reverses course on stance that vaccines don’t cause autism www.statnews.com/2025/11/20/c... via @helenbranswell.bsky.social et al.

So many of us have been warning the public that RFK Jr. is going to take away access to as many vaccines as he can. The December ACIP meeting is dedicating an entire day to reviewing “the safety” of the childhood vaccine schedule. There’s not a shred of credible evidence that warrants this.

"NASA scientists also confirmed that 3I/ATLAS is in fact a comet..."

"The same mechanisms that lead us to share feel-good animal videos can be used to influence opinions, shape narratives, and manipulate public sentiment. One moment, it’s bunnies on a trampoline. The next, it’s fabricated war footage, staged political speeches, and outrage engineered to divide."

@magictony.bsky.social and Joe Diamond put on a great show tonight for the National Capital Area Skeptics!

“All of our non-violent actions against OpenAI were an attempt to slow OpenAI down in their attempted murder of everyone and every living thing on Earth"

"the system uses a blend of brain imaging and artificial intelligence to generate textual descriptions of what people are seeing — or even visualizing with their mind’s eye — based only on their neural patterns."

Maybe the death penalty is a bad idea in general.

Thursday evening!

This kind of doubtmongering – and total BS – cancer advice is everywhere. So harmful. So exploitive. When you see it, correct it! 💪 #ScienceMatters.

"The new law sets Idaho apart from even conservative-leaning South Carolina, where two schools recently quarantined more than 150 unvaccinated children after measles arrived... That precaution would now be illegal in Idaho."

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Admiral Holsey, "who leads U.S. military forces in Latin America will step down at the end of this year, two years" early. He didn't say why. Maybe his statement is a hint: "It's been an honor to serve our nation, the American people and support and defend the Constitution for over 37 years."
