OPINION: "In Mississippi, court-ordered special elections under fairer maps yielded three Democratic pickups. They ended the GOP’s veto-proof supermajority in the state Senate. The Legislature remains Republican-controlled, but the era of rubber-stamping is over," Duvalier Malone writes.

This is a case study describing horizontal transmission of Hepatitis B in a daycare. It turned out a child with some biting/scratching behavior was a carrier of Hepatitis B 😬

Note the study is from 1989! Such cases declined a great deal after ACIP recommended perinatal Hep B vaccination in 1991
Hepatitis B virus transmission between children in day care - PubMed
We investigated two situations involving hepatitis B virus exposure among children in day care. In the first a 4-year-old boy who attended a day care center developed acute hepatitis B; another child at the center, who had a history of aggressive behavior (biting/scratching), was subsequently found …

The masks are off with ACIP. Several of them are bigots who do not give a DAMN about people who suffer with Hepatitis B because they blame them for having it.

CBP Chief Greg Bovino & other officials have repeatedly misstated the legal requirements for these arrests. DOJ explained that they aren't lawyers, but the judge said that was a “remarkable” suggestion that the admin's highest ranking policymakers are either “ignorant or incompetent, or both.”

#ICYMI: I wrote about the chaotic flood of immigration detention cases caused by the Trump administration's attempt to reclassify *millions* of migrants who have lived here for years/decades as "arriving aliens," and the remarkably broad (and growing) array of federal judges who keep rejecting it:
195. The Immigration Detention Flood
The Trump administration's attempt to quietly—but massively—expand who can be detained pending their removal has been met with overwhelming pushback from a remarkably large number of district courts.

This is profoundly irresponsible by AGSulzberger’s NYT, @by-cjewett.bsky.social +eds.

The normalization, “view-from-nowhere”, “born-yesterday”, stenography, “both-sides”, irresponsible headline are disgraceful.
THE story is the CDC&FDA are being destroyed by antiscience & Americans will die.

We keep our cars for at least 10 years. And I am only on my 3rd cell phone (and the 2nd one was a hand-me-down).
If a phone still works fine, it’s not “device hoarding” to keep using it. It’s common sense.

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

Someone very close to Putin once explained to me that Putin thinks that all Westerners can be bought. We have no values; only a price. Dmitriev's prominent role in drafting the latest "peace plan" underscores that Putin assessment. I hope Putin is wrong. I fear for some, he might be right.
