At last! I’ve been waiting 2 years to see Helen Mirren portray Patricia Highsmith! It’s fiction, a thriller, and it looks good! Noir fans know Highsmith as the “talented” author of several films noir.

“They used keywords related to diversity, gender, vaccine hesitancy and COVID-19 to screen for projects that ran afoul of the Trump administration’s priorities.”
Note: if you’re not paying attention to COVID-19, you’re playing into their hands.
New this week: The US federal government used keyword searches to target topics of research grants to defund.
COVlD was among the highest-priority banned topics.

ALT Federal agencies that terminated more than a thousand research grants at the University of California last year admitted that they used keywords related to diversity, gender, vaccine hesitancy and COVID-19 to screen for projects that ran afoul of the Trump administration’s priorities.

RFK Jr. is actively censoring scientific research to try and rewrite reality.
The COVID vaccine reduced the risk of hospitalizations. That's a FACT. It's supported by SCIENCE.
THIS is why it is so dangerous for a conspiracy theorist to be leading our nation's health.
A covid vaccine study that the CDC halted over methodological concerns was published in a leading medical journal.
It found that the vaccine reduced the risk of emergency room visits and hospitalizations among healthy adults by about half last winter. wapo.st/4uTHf2C

One year ago, Trump and Republicans passed the Big Bad Betrayal Bill.
Millions have lost health care and food assistance, utility costs have skyrocketed, and thousands of hospitals and nursing homes have shuttered.
The American people deserve better.

This week someone targeted my family for harm with a false report. We’re physically OK, but that doesn’t mean we weren’t harmed. I am beyond furious.
Whatever your politics, this is awful, wrong, and can never become normal. substack.com/home/post/p-203…

Remember, during today's literal cage match on the White House grounds:
No matter what, it's not his house. It's our house.
Get a hat, coaster, or sticker to support groups and candidates who will respect the form AND the function of the people's house. shop.onwardtogether.org/coll…

When you see the story
about how the world
now has its first trillionaire,
and when you see the story
about how laboratories
in Congo have run out
of supplies to test for Ebola,
it is important to understand
that in many ways
these are the same story.

A virus carries no passport and can’t be deterred by weapons. Yet we spend trillions on arms while underfunding the health systems that protect us all.
Health security IS security.
The world needs better global leadership.

And for JFK’s birthday the court gave his Kennedy Center back to him 🎉🎂 🎁
Happy birthday, Uncle Jack. ❤️ You brought so much laughter and joy to my childhood and to the world. I will always remember sneaking around the Oval Office, summers in Hyannis Port, and all the small moments between you and Daddy. I may be celebrating your birthday from here on earth, but as you aptly said, "A man may die, nations may rise and fall, but an idea lives on.” Your ideas continue to guide us every day. Thinking of you with love and gratitude.

A year ago I warned what would happen if the U.S. tore down our disease detection system around the world
With Hantavrirus and now a very concerning Ebola outbreak in DR Congo, we are seeing VERY clearly what we’ve lost.
And why it matters.
Read my @TheAtlantic piece from a year ago outlining what happened, and follow along as I continue to cover these issues in the coming days.
