notorious radical left communist rag says tax the rich

People talk about this stuff in terms of how much it'll suck for gaming and I hate to inform you how many MRI machines, X-Rays, all sorts of other vital machinery are just a Windows IoT Edition PC in a beige plastic box with a big magnet/accelerator/whatever attached.

A detailed overview of what we know about #SARSCoV2 transmission now that it is #endemic, and a nuanced risk assessment and behavioral choices from an immunologist who knows and respects the risks of #COVID infection.

FWIW, I just emailed NYT's standards editor to ask about the paper's policy on this. Will update if I get a response.

Under this administration, will we even *have* updated COVID boosters in the fall, despite the clear value of them across all populations??

pretty stunning chart

No.

The acting director of ICE told Congress, under oath, that local law enforcement in Colorado leaked raid plans, allowing gang members to escape. After 9NEWS questioned ICE's claim and its timeline, ICE deleted the claim from its social media platforms.

"The study was led by [...] Israel Institute of Technology, in co-correspondence with MIT, and in collaboration with Harvard University, Johns Hopkins University, and the University of Massachusetts. The findings are published in the journal Science Translational Medicine." #medsky 💉

Ofelia Torres, the teenage Chicago Public Schools student whose fight against cancer while her father was detained by ICE came to represent the federal government's overreach during Operation Midway Blitz, has died. Brave young woman. I will never forget her. RIP.

An astonishing account of recklessness and maladministration at the highest levels. (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2026/02/14/u...

This is probably ok

Hegseth to US military: if you get into MIT, we won't let you attend because of the risk that you will be exposed to ideas hostile to MAGA when you study there.

Sort of gives away the lie that they're arresting hardened criminals who are drags on society when they're setting up traps to lure in Good Samaritans

👀👀👀👀 When you’ve got THIS administration admitting that ICE lied under oath, the video evidence has to be catastrophic.

I’ve spent years of my life trying to explain to people that anti-trans conservatism naturally flows from their belief that children in the American nuclear family are not individuals with autonomy, but instead property of the parents and state, and this guy just… tweeted it out

Bovino advanced all the way to within eyesight of Paisley Park, but his supply lines were stretched too thin and ultimately his frozen troops were encircled by Will Stancil and wine moms with whistles

This is the way. When they come at us, we come back at them twofold. Raise that Pride flag every time they take it down. If they prevent that, surround the park with Pride flags. Ruin their petty little lives until they shit rainbows. Never stop. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/n...

"[T]he most outlandish theories were right. There really is a global conspiracy of wealthy, elite sexual perverts fleecing the masses. And many of them were people building a following by telling others that there is a global conspiracy of wealthy, elite sexual perverts fleecing the masses."

BREAKING: The Trump administraiton has committed a mass violation of ICE detainees' constitutional rights in MN, effectively blocking their acess to attorneys in the Whipple building, a judge ruled tonight. The judge: Trump appointeee Nancy Brasel storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

This is just unconscionable man

Kathy Ruemmler taking a bigger hit than Les Wexner, Leon Black, among many others. Anyone who communicated with him post 2008 should be held accountable but boy is it good to be a rich and powerful man. Tale as old as time!

Gov. Tim Walz addressed the state’s immigrant community during his news conference, saying “we see you, we hear you, we value everything that you bring.” “There is no Minnesota without our immigrant community,” he said. “The majority of Minnesotans and Americans stand on your side.”

It’s the Epstein Administration. No wonder Bondi spent the entire hearing screeching and deflecting. H/T: @aaronparnas.bsky.social

This is a great question. You are right that @ppact.org is often the only choice for Paps. And the thing about all cancer screenings that must be considered is not just paying for the screening but for any potential follow up.

Please understand that the people who are warning you about Newsom are doing the work. Here. Now. WELL BEFORE a primary. To prepare you! I did not vote for Biden in the primary. Best believe I voted for him in the presidential election though.

under questioning by Rand Paul, ICE officials confirm that yelling at officers is not assault and recording officers is not a crime

I’d venture to say that white people (on both sides) refuse to believe that white people (on both sides) are this far gone.

Steve Jobs had the most treatable form of pancreatic cancer around and he refused conventional treatments which he admitted at the time of his death cost him is life. I'm BEGGING you not to use celebrities who only reveal tiny bits of their medical diagnosis to make a larger point about society

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones. Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

WSJ editorial board hits FDA: It’s hard to recall a regulator who has done as much damage to medical innovation in as little time as Vinay Prasad who rejected Moderna’s mRNA flu vaccine without even a cursory review. www.wsj.com/opinion/vina...

A Reuters photographer captured this image of a page from Pam Bondi's "burn book," which she used to counter any questions from Democratic lawmakers during an unhinged hearing today. It looks like the DOJ monitored members of Congress’s searches of the unredacted Epstein files. Just wow.

This is crazy. Why the fuck did she have a list of the Epstein files that Jayapal accessed?

it's very unclear that the save act would help Rs rather than Ds in this environment. look at specials where the electorate is smaller. Ds are vastly overperforming. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/trumps-pol...

1. Some news about #flu & #measles in the US: 8 more kids have died from flu this winter. That brings the pediatric death toll to 60 & flu season isn't over. Flu B activity seems to be increasing & flu B is tough on kids. #CDC reports about 90% of these children weren't fully vaxed against flu.

Norms and duct tape. It's what held the Republic together for a couple of centuries, & we're all out of both norms & tape. This stuff wasn't tolerated just a few years ago. We should do that again.

this is a level of complicity that had not occurred to me

Again, not a good-faith process. Vinay Prasad's ego is a poison pill in one of the most critical agencies of the Federal government that directly impacts the health of every American. bsky.app/profile/lizz...

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise. BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

New Pew poll shows some white evangelical support for Trump slipping: -58% support all/most of Trump's policies (-8 points since Feb. 2025) -40% say Trump acts ethically (-15% since Feb. 2025)

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

A government of the assholes, by the assholes, for the assholes.
