seems the unfortunate death of the Canadian man in ICE custody was from AKI - oxalate nephropathy

Autopsy of Canadian in ICE custody indicates his death was preventable, experts say
Johnny Noviello’s kidney failure would have prompted symptoms of illness in the hours or days before his death

Why yes, I did just refer to @hcrichardson.bsky.social as my emotional support historian. Not sure what we'd do without her!

Something I can’t quite a see about Epstein is: is there anyone else like him? Even bracketing for a moment the monstrous systematic sex crimes, are there lots of super rich dudes who are just constantly emailing and texting and socializing with a who’s who of the elite or was he unique ?

Kind of adorable when your 9 year old says, 'Mom, that person said her name was Heather and she sounds just like her (HCR)!" when you're at a protest sign making party. Her favorite subject is history so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. 🤣

Prime example of white privilege in plain sight.

Black kids get called adults to justify blame, while white adults get called “kids” to excuse their hate. They’re not boys and girls, they’re grown-ass men and women, and the receipts are in writing.

Amazing. UHC shareholders are suing because after the CEO shooting, the company was “no longer willing” to use “aggressive, anti-consumer tactics” to generate the profits they were promised.

A gift from the content gods.

I haven’t seen this action by #SAEM posted for discussion yet.

Are journals and societies also adjusting or retracting prior research to reflect an executive branch policy « to recognize two sexes, male and female »? Where does it stop?

He’s calling people who receive federal assistance “parasites” while taking $8 million a day from U.S. taxpayers—plus another $400 million on the way for armored Teslas. What a hypocrite. This administration is full of terrible people.

RFK Jr. So discouraging & disrespectful of all who have given their lives, attention and energy to advancing science and medicine to HELP people on a large scale. They want to rip all these drugs off the market. Somewhere else in this document it talks about needing to find the root causes.

NEW — In an alarming email last night reviewed by me, Coast Guard members learned that 1,135 members' direct deposit account routing information was compromised due to a data breach from unauthorized access.

It was only discovered because an officer “reported anomalous activity” on their account.

DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. 🇺🇸

To be clear, it's not a mistake that grants to train special ed teachers were cancelled. MAGA absolutely considers those to be verboten "DEI," and Silicon Valley considers them contrary to their eugenics project.

1/ OK, Democratic members of Congress in the US Senate. It’s time for some tough love.

I am aware your pollsters and consultants tell you things like “the American people want us to work together” and “ focus on prescription drug prices in the economy.”

And furthermore, point out the fact that Trump's pivot to blaming DEI and Biden wasn't just predictable, it was predicted about twelve hour before the collision.

Trump's playbook is transparent.
