SCOOP β Body camera footage obtained as a result of my lawsuit against the DC Metropolitan PD confirms DOGE and the Trump administration openly admitted they were entering private property when they raided the building on March 17, 2025. That didn't stop MPD from breaking down the doors.
My report:
The Measles Mumps Rubella Varicella (MMRV) vaccine exists! My kid got the whole series!
States should require kids in public schools to get all available vaccines!
This was even standard practice in places like WV & MS, with no religious exemptions allowed, until Trump!

Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas.
"He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger."

A friend sent me a message last night that security at a hospital they were at in the SF Bay Area was insane.
And then I saw this. Yes, it's the least credible source. Nevertheless...

Who thinks that a war with Iran will not affect terror attacks in the U.S.?!? lol
Years after Congress ordered a plaque to honor the police defending the Capitol on Jan. 6, it was finally installed β at 4 am this morning.
@oliviacgeorge.bsky.social was there. Read her eloquent, somber scoop.

This woman, US citizen living in Skokie, was detained at Ohare yesterday, taken to Broadview, then transferred to a detention facility in Wisconsin, now released. We know all this not because of DHS, who repeatedly denied that they even had her, but because her phone was pinging in those locations.
The argument that public money for religious schools would be distributed irrespective of religion was in bad faith? In Texas?

THE LATEST NEWS AT THIS HOUR:
RUBIO SIDESTEPS CONGRESS ON $151 MILLION ARMS SALE: On Friday, the U.S. State Department approved a $151.8 million munitions sale to Israel without submitting it for congressional review.
Headline and subhed of Washington Post op-ed arguing that there should be more representation of evangelical Christians on the Supreme Court and other government institutions.
Iβm currently writing a book about whatβs really wrong with #SCOTUS and how to fix it.
Suffice it to say, this ainβt it:
Why the fuck are we only hearing about this from a ridiculous British tabloid?
Counterpoint would be the incredibly high vaccination rates in WV & MS pre-Trump due to state law prohibiting religious exemptions from vaccinations for kids going to school ...
That's not personal recommendations, but actual leadership ...
Imagine being mad that your daughter is a genius
πππ NY Senator Kevin Parker is right to firmly reject Hochulβs attempt to roll back NYβs climate law:
βWe should be in our sustainable energy bag now.β
Indeed. Well put!
βA DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credibleβand that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.β

Welp, Kanopy didnβt survive the libraryβs budget cuts. Watch these while you still have access (the service will be gone by May 11)
This is a short bill that references other areas of law and it needs work but the overall framework makes sense to me.
Did you read about the blind refugee who was left to die in the Buffalo region?
NYβs AG is reportedly investigating the Buffalo sheriffβs office over this: www.investigativepost.org/2026/03/06/n...
We at Bolts reported on the frightening record of people dying under this office last year:
There are exceptions!
Jewish and Roma people come to mind...
Something I've deduced by absence of alternatives is that here in the New World we see belonging to nation like "Irish" or "Chinese" to be a memetic connection to a people that happened to be attached to a land and in the Old World it's being a part of a state's people.
We badly need to revive the War Declaration clause.
Dropped a few of the new Epstein docs in this thread.

The trial surely has limitations, but it's been increasingly clear that catheter-directed thrombolysis is silly for over a decade now
TBH, this is a wild story about device manufacturers using sponsored RCTs to torture EBM

Fresh blog: STRATIFY trial for PE
Peripheral tPA infusion is EQUALLY EFFECTIVE as compared to ultrasound-assisted thrombolysis
Catheter-directed thrombolysis for PE is dead
We can get the same benefits with peripheral tPA infusions (w/o procedural costs & complications)... #1/2 #EMIMCC
Thinking today about how the abortion access grassroots community completely up-ended the way our entire country talks about self-managed abortion, the fact that it's now standard protocol.
It truly started from the bottom up, one of the greatest organizing stories of the last 40 years.
March is #WomensHistoryMonth.
Before 1974, women needed permission from their spouse to get a credit card or loan.
In 1972, Rep Bella Savitsky Abzug introduced the Equal Credit Opportunity Act prohibiting lending institutions from discriminating on the basis of sex or marital status.

Couple things here:
1. What the fuck

Where was this before?
Our #NIH / CDC director now urges Americans to get vaccinated.

2. South Carolina is the epicenter; w/ 990 cases alone.
3. Of those, 923 (93%) were unvaccinated.
