A🧵 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. 1/n
One of the best signs so far and those huddled masses that we're fighting for. No Kings
I was at the the No Kings march in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Many elderly or disabled folks who couldn’t make it to Manhattan, but also young families and people of all ages. I stood in the same spot for more than an hour and the stream of protesters was constant. Amazing turnout.

JD Vance wants to go after the Ford Foundation, eh? Interestingly, the Ford Foundation has long been in the crosshairs of the American far right for their supposed funding of "hateful, radical left, anti-white propaganda." Here's an example of that talk from the 1955 edition of The White Sentinel.

In the words of my colleague, the data supports evidence that vaccine saves lives. I believe this data. This data is accurate.
Camille A. Clare MD MPH@cclaremdmph.bsky.social · last yr.As a physician and scientist, I believe in evidence based medicine. I believe in science.

Today is Grandparents Day, and a new group, Grandparents for vaccines, has launched. Many grandparents have seen what vaccines can do, & suffered the infections that can now be prevented. They don't want us to go back to the age when measles & polio were rampant.

Okay, so Anthropic settles. The settlement is $1.5B for 500,000 authors. They just raised $13B to get them to a total valuation of $183B. As far as they're concerned, this settlement is a rounding error.
