This is the way. When they come at us, we come back at them twofold. Raise that Pride flag every time they take it down. If they prevent that, surround the park with Pride flags. Ruin their petty little lives until they shit rainbows. Never stop. www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/n...

The FDA rejects Moderna’s application for its mRNA-based flu vaccine.

The move is the latest sign that the FDA, under Health Secretary RFK Jr., is slow-walking vaccine approvals and taking a harder line on shots that use RNA technology.

Trying men's souls...
happy bday English-born Thomas Paine, b.1737.

"These are the times that try men's(and women's) souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he (or she) that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."

happy bday French writer Jules Verne, b.1828.

“Science, my lad, is made up of mistakes, but they are mistakes which it is useful to make, because they lead little by little to the truth.”

RIP writer/aviator Anne Morrow Lindbergh, died 2001.

“I do not believe sheer suffering teaches. If suffering alone taught, all the world would be wise, since everyone suffers. To suffering must be added mourning, understanding, patience, love, openness, and the willingness to remain vulnerable.”

“I haven’t seen or heard from you for months,” Jeffrey Epstein wrote in May 2016. “If I made a mistake I’m sorry.”

Bard President Leon Botstein assured Epstein that that was not the case.

“I miss you,” he wrote.

More than a dozen federal prosecutors have left, or are preparing to leave, the US Attorneys Office in Minnesota since Renée Good was slain by an ICE officer. Good people fleeing a sinking ship.

“We are down to a skeleton crew,” one source told @samanthamichaels.bsky.social
Federal prosecutors in Minnesota are "demoralized and pissed"
The administration is pressuring them to charge ICE protesters on scant evidence.

For years I believed we needed our own version of South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission. I now believe the first step in perfecting our Union is our version of the Nuremberg trials. Maybe center it in Minneapolis and hold all cruel federal public officials accountable.

Putting on my suit and tie and going on America Erwache to describe a 234 year old basic requirement of the constitution for lawful searches and seizures as a “nonstarter.”
Rep. Mark Harris: "Some of these things are nonstarters. Having judicial warrants? To me, hat's a nonstarter. Being able to make off their mask, putting them at risk? That's a nonstarter. I would say anything that's going to hamstring the work of ICE, that's just not going to go anywhere."
