Trump said he would invoke the Insurrection Act in Minnesota. The Insurrection Act, a rarely used 1807 law, gives the president the authority to deploy the military domestically without prior congressional approval. nbcnews.to/4sMnn1K

This happened in Santa Ana yesterday. It is just now making national news. ICE shot a protester with a so called "non-lethal" projectile. It took out the young man's eye, and very nearly hit his corotid artery. He underwent a 6 hr. surgery but his eye could not be saved. He was unarmed.

Not good to see the rise in p-tau181, a marker of brain inflammation tied to increased risk of Alzheimer's disease, in a prospective cohort (mean age 56 years) with #LongCovid and neurological symptoms

Deaths potentially averted by small changes in physical activity and sedentary time: an individual participant data meta-analysis of prospective cohort studies

Rather than UK politicians taking votes on banning X, and UK media outlets debating it - why don’t they personally take the decision to leave it? The more high profile people/outlets who abandon it because of its low ethics the bigger the impact.

It’s good to remember if you’re getting back into exercise- it all counts for mind body and soul. It can be a HiiT session at the gym, but it can also be walking (the dog), running (after the kids), or lifting (the shopping). It’s just whatever activity works for you! #wemove
