The MAHA pitch was: to transfer American 'heathcare' dollars from FDA-approved and evidence-based products... to the Wellness Industry that every MAHA leader has financial stake in. An industry that is projected to value at $9T globally by 2028.
The MAHA pitch was supposed to be that Americans don’t really need insurance, vaccines, or other “establishment” medical care — they just need better nutrition and less exposure to environmental toxins.

Fun fact, indie booksellers are always happy to order books, even if they don't have them in stock, for you to pick up in-store or have shipped. Heck, you can even ask faraway indie bookstores to ship a book, or you can purchase through bookshop.org and support indies across the US and the UK!

The Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln just ran a TV ad during the Husker game urging people to call regents and oppose the unit from being cut. That’s a new one for me.

Ordering no quarter, as Hegseth effectively did, isn't a newfangled modern war crime. It was understood as a crime as far back as the Revolutionary War. Washington threatened to do reprisals over it. The bad guy in 'The Patriot' is (very loosely) based off a British officer who was notorious for it.

Today's Public Notice highlights underreported fact that CBP invasion of North Carolina lasted less than a week. Turns out raiding churches and country clubs, smashing windows, and bullying students wasn't a good look. Seems important given rising disapproval of immigration enforcement 🤷♂️

If any of the allegations are true, Nuzzi covering for RFK Jr. directly played a role in the gutting of America's public health infrastructure, the defenestrating of the CDC and the promotion of the lie that vaccines causing autism.
If the Nuzzi blast radius doesn't impact both the new editor of VF and the NYT profiler, then something wrong. Holy shit.

Reporting from Boston papers makes it seem very plausible that Trump's Press Secretary had his paramilitary detain the mother of her nephew, because she was no longer romantically involved with her brother and he wanted her out of the picture.
“After Ferreira was detained, Dos Santos Rodrigues said Michael Leavitt Sr. and his father, Bob Leavitt, reached out to her.”
“‘They just kept saying, ‘Tell her to self-deport,’” she recalled. “Self-deport to where? Brazil is not her home.’” www.bostonglobe.com/2025/11/26/m...
