Do or do not. There is no try. #StarWarsDay

During Trump's first term, U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara took DOJ independence seriously enough to be fired rather than accept a *phone* call from him.

Jay Kuo: โ€œNow, letโ€™s be clear. This is a choice of two evils. Nobody in the party wants a shutdown, and many will work hard to avoid being blamed for it. But remember the first rule when fighting fascism: Never comply in advance.โ€œ

I donโ€™t often tear into the Democrats. But I have to call them out when theyโ€™re about to go with their worst political instincts. My write-up on the possible Senate Democratic capitulation: open.substack.com/pub/statusku...

A resignation letter from UCSF's Jack L. Turban, MD MHS, to NCAA President Charles D. Baker, dated February 6, 2025. Turban resigns from the CSMAS committee, disagreeing with the NCAA's decision to ban trans women from women's sports, citing lack of medical/scientific consensus and political motivation. He thanks the committee for their work but criticizes the decision's basis.

This is how itโ€™s done. Dr. Jack Turban is resigning after the NCAA announced it is banning transgender athletes from womenโ€™s sports.

Opinion | The Worldโ€™s Richest Men Take On the Worldโ€™s Poorest Children Iโ€™ve seen U.S.A.I.D. operate around the world, and itโ€™s not woke โ€” itโ€™s lifesaving.

Kristoff: โ€œTo billionaires in the White House, it may seem like a game. But to anyone with a heart, itโ€™s about childrenโ€™s lives and our own security, and whatโ€™s unfolding is sickening.โ€
