Thanks to The 19th for republishing this piece!

Cervical cancer could be eradicated. But not with Medicaid cuts and anti-vax politics.

The cancer has a known path of prevention, but that also means it falls at the intersection of cultural issues that are facing strong political opposition.

It's just a training arrangement. We have tons of these kind of basing deals to train other militaries from all over the world, & in fact the Singaporean Air Force is already stationed at the same airbase. Also this deal was made in 2022.

$12 billion deal may bring hundreds of Qatar, US Air Force members to Idaho base

some rare good news: TRO against ICE that "temporarily prohibits federal agents from arresting, threatening to arrest or using physical force against journalists unless there is probable cause to believe the individual has committed a crime."

The restraining order temporarily prohibits federal agents from arresting, threatening to arrest or using physical force against journalists unless there is probable cause to believe the individual has committed a crime. It also prohibits them from issuing crowd dispersal orders, without exigent circumstances, requiring people to leave a public place where they otherwise have a lawful right to be.

It also prohibits them from using various types of riot control weapons, including tear gas and other kinds of noxious gas, as well as various kinds of “less-lethal” weapons and ammunition.

On a more serious note: they're about to do this to abortion pills too

Susan Rinkunas @susanrinkunas.com · 11d

The administration twisted science last week to claim that Tylenol is unsafe in pregnancy—and news also broke that the FDA is conducting a "review" of the abortion pill mifepristone. These moves are related in more ways than one and women and pregnant people will pay the price. Me in @msnbc.com:

Opinion | RFK Jr. is trying to run the same playbook on abortion pills that he just ran on Tylenol

This administration has already shown that it will ignore scientific evidence to advance its own narratives.

Congress already passed a law to ensure that the hundreds of thousands of furloughed federal workers will receive back pay when the shutdown concludes.

Trump and his team of billionaire sellouts cannot change that.

Remember what is at stake here: affordable health care.

ICE is sending people to a prison in Africa’s only absolute monarchy.

A copy of the arrangement with Eswatini that Mother Jones reviewed shows that the US has agreed to pay the monarchy $5.1 million to take in up to 160 ICE detainees.

Kiefer Sutherland, a rear bilateral amputee cocker spaniel is next to Sia the bulldog recovering from paralysis with James Earl Jones the bilateral rear amputee spotted Merle French bulldog on the right. Behind them is a tent/pod system for a cat with brain damage. I know that all sounds hard on the heart, but if you could see the look on their faces you’d know everything is OK. More than ok.

These little guys are, essentially, sacred animals in Northeast Ohio thanks to the efforts of a famous Cleveland weatherman named Dick Goddard. There's one small Cleveland-adjacent town that dedicates a whole-ass weekend festival to them.

I've been seeing my favorite fuzzy friends around! 🍂🐛

Illustration of a wooly (sometimes spelled woolly) bear caterpillar. It's fuzzy and cute and has a happy little smile. There's lines radiating around it and above it says "it's wooly time!" in lowercase hand lettering. The background is a light orange checkered pattern.

The Hawaii Supreme Court’s ruling means that law enforcement in the state will now be required to record all interrogations inside police stations. They will also be required to record all interrogations outside stations “when feasible.”

Hawaii Supreme Court Expands Rights of Defendants, and Once Again Rebukes SCOTUS

The justices ruled that Hawaii’s constitution requires police to record interrogations. And they vowed to protect due process for Hawaii residents—unlike, they said, the Roberts Court.
