Within 36 hours of the U.S.-Israeli attack, Iran had hit sites in at least nine countries, including airports and active ports, crippling international travel and oil shipments.

The strikes also tore through residential towers, luxury hotels and roads. https://wapo.st/4r4jW4k

Experts warn NIH director now leading CDC will push ‘RFK Jr’s agenda’ RFK Jr ally Jay Bhattacharya was named acting director of the CDC and will be fourth leader in a year to head agency

A guy who doesn’t have experience in infectious disease & who also is the current #NIH director is now the acting CDC director. The news wasn’t communicated directly to staff. They found out through the NYT.

He is installed to propagate Kennedy's MAHA agenda.

Epstein files cast pall among US faculty and students: ‘I just feel a deep disappointment’ Ties to the disgraced financier run deep through the academic world, documents released by the DoJ show

More accounts of STEM professors discussing how fuckable they think their female students and mentees are in emails with Epstein. Comments on these women's looks come up in emails about their pursuit of professional and academic opportunities.

STEM is hostile to women on so many levels.

RFK Jr. May Eliminate the USPSTF, Original Task Force Members Warn Dismantling the task force would be 'an existential threat to clinical practice,' they said

HHS could eliminate the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPTF) or delegitimize the body like it did with CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). This would lead to "an existential threat to clinical practice", insiders warn 🧪

ICE just bought a massive warehouse in Social Circle, Georgia for $128.6 million.

Call it what it is: an internment camp expansion happening in town across the country.

I just want to live in a country where the leader can’t enrich themselves with our tax dollars, the government does what the people want, and the wealthy have to follow the laws.

You know, like a democracy.

I refer to this photo as St. Metro. She gets it, but I'm sure someone tries to hit on her anyway.

@nathithehumbleguy on threads: 
Ladies if you're always walking around with earphones or headphones on whether jogging or at the mall don't be surprised if no one approaches you. Most guys won't ask you to take them off just to start a conversation.
Sometimes you might be blocking more than just the noise

"The Social Circle city manager was contacted by ICE...

“They asked me to turn on the water,” he said of a 1m sq ft warehouse nearby that the government plans to use for locking up as many as 10,000 detainees.

“I told them I’m not going to do it,” he said...

Me: No law enforcement official should cover their face and conceal their identity. They are accountable to the public.

Sean Spicer: What about BLM protesters who wore masks?

Me: They were private citizens. It’s different when police, who are carrying guns and have the right to kill you, do it.

Donald Trump Calls On Netflix To Fire Board Member Susan Rice Or “Pay The Consequences” Trump threatened that the streamer would "pay the consequences" as it seeks merger approval.

I want Democrats to learn from this. How to shamelessly wield power.

If they ever get elected again, use it to go against the broligarchy.

Will they? Depends on who we elect and if, inshallah, there are free and fair elections.
