Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people.

By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s.

Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

After the U.S. Supreme Court’s mail ballot ruling Monday, anti-voting lawyer Cleta Mitchell believes there’s now a legal avenue to kill early voting — and she doesn’t want to wait to sue. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Cleta Mitchell says Supreme Court’s mail ballot ruling opens door to kill early voting: ‘Let's file some cases’
Mitchell’s attack on early voting offers a stark reminder of the right’s remarkable zeal to abolish almost any form of voting that expands access.

Data scientists who’ve been watching the Trump administration systematically scrub LGBTQ+ Americans from government data have for months feared what could come next.

Then the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act.

Remember the current NIH director going on about protecting researchers from government censorship?

Today his people called the police in to forcibly remove my colleagues from their own society meeting for sharing an editorial published in their flagship journal that was critical of him.

Beautifully put.

The anti-“woke” side won the war they claimed was happening.

So why aren’t they taking their victory lap?

🆕 In my latest @statnews.com op-ed, I discuss why supporting Congolese health workers on the frontlines of #Ebola and ensuring American responders who may become ill are not sent to third countries for treatment, but rather are repatriated go hand in hand.

If Americans risk their lives fighting Ebola overseas, they deserve the right to come home
Outbreak response is difficult enough without asking responders to wonder whether they will have access to the best available care if they become ill.

Good to see access to #MBP134 for people who develop #Ebola - will those in Africa have the same access?

MBP134 was developed from antibodies isolated from an Ebola survivor during the W Africa outbreak. The communities that made this breakthrough possible deserve equitable access to its benefits.

Incredible! Scientists receive a rare standing ovation after announcing that a new treatment can double the survival time for pancreatic cancer, the deadliest cancer which was once considered “undruggable.”

When we fund and support science, we can achieve anything!

So apparently RFK Jr has been the one holding up funding for GAVI the vaccine alliance which among other things was trying to support testing for new Ebola vaccines for the variant that is now circulating in the DRC. Why RFK Jr is entrusted with influence on this is beyond me. Kick him to the curb.
Rubio tosses RFK Jr under the bus on vaccines: "The State Dept made the decision that we are going to reengage ... we have certainly allowed Sec. Kennedy to play a leading role, but right now we're at a stage where we are going to reengage."
