RFK Jr.’s spokesmonkey, about cancelling contracts with scientific journals: “Precious taxpayer dollars should be [sic] not be used on unused subscriptions to junk science.” It is really important to understand that RFK Jr. is the head of a disinformation campaign against the people of the U.S.

They directly compare the effects of vaccination (against not vaccinating) and account for other factors. Are you saying that you think vaccines are not as important in places like the US and Canada vs less developed nations? I’m not sure what you’re actually even asking

🚨NEW: Erez Reuveni, the DOJ lawyer fired for his honesty in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, sends Congress a whistleblower letter detailing lawlessness at the DOJ around the CECOT deportations. He says Emil Bove told the DOJ to respond to likely court orders blocking flights with "fuck you."

Bove then made a remark concerning the possibility that a court order would enjoin those removals before they could be effectuated. Bove stated that DOJ would need to consider telling the courts "fuck you” and ignore any such court order. Mr. Reuveni perceived that others in the room looked stunned, and he observed awkward, nervous glances among people in the room. Silence overtook the room. Mr. Reuveni and others were quickly ushered out of the room. Notwithstanding Bove's directive, Mr. Reuveni left the meeting understanding that DOJ would tell DHS to follow all court orders.21 - Mr. Reuveni was stunned by Bove's statement because, to Mr. Reuveni's knowledge, no one in DOJ leadership - in any Administration – had ever suggested the Department ofJustice could blatantly ignore court orders, especially with a "fuck you.” Mr. Reuveni was in disbelief, because, on the contrary, the Department of Justice consistently advises its clients of their obligation to follow court orders, not to ignore them. Mr. Reuveni knew that it was absurd and unlawful to do otherwise, a proposition that Mr. Reuveni felt even more certain of after a brief conversation with his supervisor, August Flentje, shortly after the meeting.

First off, where should “End Road Work” signs be located? I imagine it varies state to state, but in Virginia, per VDOT’s guidelines, the signs should be “approximately 500' beyond the last device in the lane closure.”

That Chinese automaker's cars are tariffed out of the U.S. market--a Biden-administration move to counter PRC subsidies--but have been drawing a lot of buyers outside the U.S. Tesla should be scared and should feel bad about that, since their promised cheaper EV remains vaporware.

This whole thing has been brewing since November 2024, when Disney sent their demand letter, followed by one from NBC Universal on May 30 2025 from the same firm (Jenner & Block). Not sure how Midjourney survives this honestly! storage.courtlistener.com….

(3) Identify which of Universal’s copyrighted works Midjourney has copied to train its Image Service.
