Strongly recommend calling your US senators today to tell them:

1. Publicly call for Sheehy to be expelled from the Senate for assaulting a protestor.

2. DO NOT vote to confirm Mullin for DHS.

This bears repeating.

Dr. Casey Means is not eligible for the position as Surgeon General. The position requires experience in public health programs & entry into regular corps. She has done neither.

You can take action by sending a letter to your senator.

I’ve unmasked a white nationalist fight club in my city: Montreal.

After weeks of work (with help!), I can reveal an Olympian as a member of the Frontenac Active Club — one who, unbeknownst to the owners, brought them to a local gym for training and propaganda photos.

Here’s my investigation:

DOOCY: It sounds like the Russians are helping Iran target and attack Americans--


TRUMP: That's an easy problem compared to what we're doing here. What a stupid question that is to be asking at this time. We're talking about something else.

DHS nominee Markwayne Mullin is one of the most active stock-traders in the Senate — and violated the STOCK Act against insider trading as recently as last August.

He currently holds stock in L3Harris, which has millions in contracts with ICE and FEMA.

The grift continues.

Kennedy: "Immigration used to be our strongest issue. It's clearly not right now."

Just saw an Instagram video of a guy claiming that you need 200 grams of protein a day to lose weight and I’ve never been more certain that we need more professional licensing organizations and limits on who can give out recommendations

Stock market tanking again today and oil *way* up. What's crazy is Trump could've just rode out the current regression to the mean on inflation, combined with an apparent productivity boom. Instead, did the opposite of econ 101: kicked out workers, reduced immigration, started wars of choice.

This is not good.

The original story, which the NYT had the good grace to link to, is so much worse than the Times makes it sound:

Influencers are promoting peptides for better health. What does the science say? The latest wellness craze involves injecting these molecules for athletic performance, longevity and more. Scientists say the research isn't keeping pace with the health claims.

I don't understand how we have to beg people to get vaccinated while other people are fine shooting themselves up with untested compounds for unproven "gains" risking god knows what

That's why I said focused on, not exclusive to, written records. Historians draw on different kinds of evidence in constructing their accounts. But written records, broadly construed, are central. If you're not dealing with written records at all, you're probably doing anthropology or archeology.

ICE detains reporter Estefany Rodríguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany Rodríguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

Gen Z men twice as likely as baby boomers to believe wives should obey husbands Global survey shows young men hold more traditional views about gender roles than older generations Almost a third of generation Z men think a wife should obey her husband, according to a global survey of 23,000 people that found young men hold more traditional views about gender roles than older generations. A third (33%) of gen Z men also said a husband should have the final word on important decisions, according to the 29-country survey which included Great Britain, the US, Brazil, Australia and India. Almost a quarter (24%) of gen Z men think women should not appear too independent or self-sufficient, compared with 12% of baby boomer men. Attitudes toward sexual norms also differed sharply across generations, with 21% of gen Z men thinking a “real woman” should never initiate sex, compared with only 7% of baby boomer men. More than half (59%) of gen Z men said men were expected to do too much to support equality, compared with 45% of baby boomer men. For women, the proportions were 41% and 30% respectively. Thirty percent of gen Z men believed men should not say “I love you” to their friends, compared with 20% of baby boomer men and 21% of gen Z women. Twenty-one percent of gen Z men believed that men who took part in caregiving for children were less masculine than those who did not, compared with 8% of baby boomer men and 14% of gen Z women. Both genders felt women had more choice in dating and relationships (22%), household roles (24%) and the clothes they can wear (34%), while men were considered to have more choice in hobbies (18%) and jobs (39%).

A Jan. 6 rioter pardoned by Trump was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse Since receiving presidential pardons, dozens of former Capitol rioters have gotten into more legal trouble. In Florida, Andrew Paul Johnson was sentenced to life in prison for child sex abuse.

Some anthropologists are bullshitters, but so what? Doesn't mean the physical anthropologists solving crimes, or the linguistic anthropologists saving dying languages are full of shit.

RFK Jr.: "Linda McMahon is a very close friend - My niece Zoe Hines recently signed a contract with WWE to become a wrestler, and I'm really looking forward to knowing so many good doctors who can treat her after."

Anthropology isn't a fake discipline at all. It's as valid as history or archeology and because it's so broad, it can overlap with both. As well as biological sciences and forensic medicine.

History is focused on the study of written records, and is backward looking. Anthropology deals with a much broader array of evidence about cultures past and present. It encompasses everything from skeletal biology to textiles and languages, past and present. It's not fake.

Calling states "red" and "blue" based on presidential results not only ignores the partisanship of other statewide votes but also ignores how lousy those descriptors are at the presidential level.

Graham Platner's wife is Jewish and Donald Trump's wife is an immigrant. But the question isn't whether he's a zeig-heiling neo-Nazi, it's whether he's a liar with a long history of gross politics that he papered over to reinvent himself as a leftist.

My dream project with Brad Mehldau and the Frankfurt Radio Big Band premieres tonight!

Some thoughts about my process for this project, and the misunderstood of arranging:
