Meanwhile, Russia is maneuvering a military satellite dangerously close to one of ours, which is tasked with helping Ukraine. I suppose this is "fine", too. No good reason to do this, except to f*** with us. bsky.app/profile/ones...

Russian military satellite Kosmos 2612 is now closely shadowing ICEYE-X36, a radar satellite supporting Ukraine, after maneuvering into nearly the same orbit. Such proximity could allow Russia to monitor or interfere with transmissions and potentially position itself for an anti-satellite operation

Again, anyone else, at any other time since WWII, this immediately ends a presidency. It needs to now, & media outlets should be laser focused on asking the 20 GOP votes in Congress who could make that happen why they are violating their oaths of office & enabling this. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

Trump: "Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine."

Crazy this is not obvious to Wall Street: every democracy saw what Musk did to Ukraine last week and confirmed security need for Starlink alternative. Those alternatives will not just serve defense needs, but also be viable commercial alternatives, crushing any hope of SpaceX's monopoly projections.

The Russian Asset isn’t even trying to hide it! Supreme Court and Merrick Garland have a Lot to answer for….

"’It is unacceptable for Ukraine’s defense — and therefore Europe’s security — to depend on the goodwill of a single American billionaire or on Donald Trump’s decisions,’ French centrist Member of the European Parliament Christophe Grudler told POLITICO.” 10/16/26 share.google/zmUY4MBVCvhJ...

EU faces growing pressure to plug Ukraine’s Starlink gap

European lawmakers have been calling on Brussels to fast-track Ukraine’s access to the bloc’s satellite capabilities.

I thank her for rejecting the hush money and speaking out. If I were in her shoes, I can’t say I would have been able to turn away that kind of money. I will not forgive her for her previous actions though. And, to be fair to her, I don’t think she is seeking forgiveness. So there is that.

Same dynamic as TikTok taking down ads for Musk documentary. A web of silence bought by money and/or power. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/09/m...

Zuckerberg shut down No Kings on Meta Trump banned news outlets from the White House Now TikTok wants to erase the “Musk” documentary Billionaires wants to control our information, because they believe uninformed masses are compliant-and more profitable for them This will backfire Spectacularly

I refuse to denounce the Nicholas Brotherhood!

As a white American, I disavow Donald Trump and the GOP.

Mehdi Hasan asks a good question.

The attendee who pressed Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed to disavow the Muslim Brotherhood at a tense town hall this weekend was exposed as a former GOP staffer with "Christian nationalist ties," journalist Marisa Kabas reported.

There will be a lot of equivocating about all the times search warrants have been executed on members of Congress for corruption investigations and the like, and it can't be stressed enough in how many ways HSI raiding Ilhan Omar is extremely not like that.

This came in handy for one of my patients today, so I thought I'd share. If you caught COVID and are prescribed Paxlovid, but for some godforsaken reason your insurance thinks it's cool to charge you an arm and a leg for it, try signing up for this.

hey #pdx - fyi our local pharmacist said a lot of people have been picking up paxlovid friendly reminder to get your '26-'27 COVID booster, get your rest, do all the things to keep your immune system healthy!

Tested positive for Covid 10 days ago. Took paxlovid. A week ago tested negative. Woke up sick this morning and tested positive again in classic paxlovid rebound style. Symptoms more mild but just as contagious. PLEASE wear a mask in public following a bout of Covid just in case to prevent spreading

A Japanese improvement (a really good one) on Paxlovid. I am so grateful for non-US research right now.

Published in The New England Journal of Medicine. Peer-reviewed. Large sample size. Sound methodology. An antiviral pill has, for the FIRST time, been shown to PREVENT COVID-19 in individuals exposed to SARS-CoV-2. Ensitrelvir blocks the enzyme coronaviruses need to make new copies of themselves.
