The newsletter from agricultural producer news site WATT Poultry is now a primary source of my anxiety. H5N1 is exploding in North American poultry. Every day, a headline like this.

But no human cases. Either there aren't any or there's no testing. Given CDC's dismantling, I can guess.
Headline: "Avian flu invades flock of nearly 2 million Washington hens"

(Reuters) - U.S. companies and consumers are bearing the brunt of the country's new import tariffs, early indications show, contradicting assertions by President Donald Trump and complicating the Federal Reserve's fight against inflation.

Trump calls on the Israeli President to pardon Benjamin Netanyahu:

"Cigars and champagne - who the hell cares about it?"

Netanyahu is currently on trial for bribery, fraud, and breach of trust, including allegedly accepting 700,000 shekels (approx. $210,000) worth of luxury goods in bribes.

Gov. Pritzker on Adelita Grijalva: "Mike Johnson won't swear her in. Why is that? … She'll be the 218th signature forcing a vote to release the Jeffrey Epstein files."

"Trump and Mike Johnson are working awfully damn hard to keep a sexual predator's files from being released. Makes you wonder why."

Trump has rolled out yet another baseless conspiracy theory in his relentless campaign to lie and spread misinformation to the public. His latest claim, that the FBI orchestrated the January 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol and that Biden ordered it, collapses under even the most basic scrutiny.

“Procedural error” seems to be happening a lot. More like malicious intent/reasons. DOGE did the same thing, and we have whole systems compromised.

Nope. Not incompetence. Just another part of the plan to traumatize federal workers, as explicitly laid out by Project 2025. Fire them, rehire them, keep them scared. If they quit, that's a bonus.
