Fuck you, RFK Jr. That’s it, that’s the item.
Thursday afternoon auto-massacre, as like the entire acting leadership of SDNY quits en masse after being ordered to drop charges against noted scumbag Mayor Eric Adams. (NBC News / Talking Points Memo)
Time to read up on Marsha P. Johnson, friends. They’re trying to erase her from Stonewall. (NCHJE)
I would not wish cystic fibrosis on anyone, not even a member of Russ Vought’s family. It just makes me sad that he’s defunding the same NIH that helped his daughter with a “miracle drug.” Maybe that’s why his wife divorced him! I would. (Mother Jones)
When my sister’s twin babies were tiny, her husband sold construction equipment. In 2009? That turned into a pretty bad gig! So while food stamps (EBT) have always been miserly, my sister and her family were eligible for an absolutely PRINCELY amount of milk, eggs, and cheese under WIC. Say goodbye to feeding babies. (Salon) Trillions. TRILLIONS they want to cut. (First Focus on Children analysis)
Also more again, all the good things in the Republican budget. Hahahaha, it’s nothing! (The Fucking News)
What will congressional Republicans do with their time now that Musk’s running everything? Disinformation of the stupidest kind! (Amanda Marcotte at Salon)
Fake viral conspiracies in Congress? But that’s what Twitter is for! (Dave Weigel at Semafor)
Trump absolutely lied that he wasn’t going to do any of this. (Will Stancil)
This nice liberal Harvard law professor is being very wrong, in very public. Stop, Jay Willis, he’s already dead! (Balls and Strikes)
“Does President Trump understand money?” That is the first sentence in this pissed-off op-ed by the editorial board of … the Wall Street Journal. (Gift link)
Corewell Health (formerly Beaumont), one of Michigan’s biggest healthcare providers, backed the fuck off backing the fuck off providing hormone therapy for trans kids. (Metro Times)
What? Every time you stop, your Jeep plays an ad at you? O brave new world. (Techweez)

Russ Vought is a callous pile of excrement and between him and RF Brainworm, a lot of people are going to die by what would otherwise be preventable deaths.
