So yeah, on one hand, invoking the Gadsden Flag in the name of sending US troops to occupy US cities is hilariously absurd. On the other hand, it is exactly the sort of absurdity one would expect from a fascistic American leader.

Trump being unable to remember things he did in his first term, his bizarre antics during the Club World Cup final, the lashing out and reversals over Epstein, and the WH now admitting his health issues do not feel unrelated. The veneer of invincibility is cracking.

Would be nice if people talking about what Ron DeSantis is up to in the Everglades would acknowledge Floridians are fighting it and turning up halfway to the middle of nowhere to protest, because the way people who aren't in Florida are discussing #AlligatorAlcatraz you'd think there's no pushback.

New from Evan: You might know that the New York Times took a shameful victory lap the day after the Supreme Court ruled bans on gender affirming care are not discriminatory.
But what you probably don't know is that ban supporters cited NYT in their amicus briefs 29 times.

It’s hard to express just how MUCH this will matter for thousands of women.
This is such an important shift. For many years the catholic church withheld support for HPV vaccination which prevents cervical cancer.
119,000 women die from this cancer in Africa every year.
This full throated support of the HPV vaxx by the church will help uptake.
