Dave Bomberg Michael Mina It seems odd that the poultry industry isn't telling the dairy industry to get its act together.

Michael Mina It’s very odd that FDA/CDC focus is “Don’t worry, it’s a bird & cow problem, our food supply is fine.” Seems like allowing a huge reservoir of flu infected livestock is risky to humans, like 1000s of incubators for new mutations. Haven’t scientists been following H5N1 for years?

The H5N1 outbreak in dairy cows may be much much more extensive than has been reported.

Nearly 40% of pasteurized milk tested from throughout the Midwest (38/150 samples) had evidence of H5N1 RNA.

To prevent a pandemic, we have to get this under control.…

It’s Me Laurence Tribe 🇺🇦 ⚖️ Yep! I've been saying this was the plan for years now. The goal is to throw it to the House of Representatives under the 12th Amendment 'contingent election' clause. We are dealing with straight up Fascists now!

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment spells out clearly one of the qualifications for becoming president: Not engaging in or inciting an insurrection.

Donald Trump fails to meet that qualification. salon.com/2023/08/09/and…

Sarah Kendzior There’s a fumbling coup happening and the media seems focused on the fumbling part and ignoring the grave severity of trying to overthrow a government and steal power back after losing a free and fair election

From HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT:

'Trump covers up crime with scandal. That is his main propaganda tactic, the one few seem to be able to discern...The crimes are much worse than the scandals, but the media will always take the scandal bait.'

Lawyers used to laugh when they heard Nixon’s analysis during Frost/Nixon: “When the president does it, that means it’s not illegal.” Listening to the arguments before today’s Supreme Court, it appears the Republican Justices are all in with Richard Nixon. American democracy may…

Patrick Burgomaster The point is that if it’s a choice, it’s one thing. But most boomers aren’t working by choice - they’re working because they can’t afford not to (money, healthcare, etc.).

“Boomers are keeping jobs well into their sixties and seventies because they ’like going to work’…” << Pure and unadulterated propaganda.

I can assure you, this sure as fuck doesn’t apply to me or any of the other boomers I know.

Pardon the politics …

Trump isn’t arguing that he's innocent. He's arguing that a president should be exempt from prosecution. For crimes he committed TO become president, BEFORE he was president. There's no logic to this. That's all.

Jamie Thank you, I feel like I’m trading in healthcare for my kids’ futures…but these are the sorts of decisions we are forced to make now…

Laura Miers Sending love. I know this is a huge decision for your family & you were hoping to find better care there.

After careful consideration, I’ve determined I can’t move my kids to Texas, at least not right now. While moving would benefit me, it will harm my kids. I can’t justify it, especially given the rapidly escalating threats to our collective survival, and so we will wait.

'What David Pecker said was truly shocking... A media outlet was in cahoots with one political candidate. That is what happens in Russia, that is not what's supposed to happen here.'

I agree with Andrew Weissmann (weissmann11 on Threads)🌻. This already major criminal case has now become a genuine bombshell. So much for trying to call it just a tawdry little matter.

There is *no question* about whether covid infections are persistent, lasting potentially for years.
The question is *what percentage* are persistent.

Void Excellent question. Yogurt too. We consume a LOT of dairy in my household, and it's my kids' (and mine if I'm being honest) main source of protein along with peanut butter.

How dangerous do we think cheese, ice cream, $ butter are currently? I can’t eat dairy but my gf and her kids can/will only eat limited foods and these are key items. And I’m worried about family/friends/everyone. I cannot even begin to wrap my mind around the dangers to farmers
