Aside from the general issues about Trump‘s tariff and his economic nationalism strategy, today’s actions against Canada and Mexico are inexplicable and dangerous. 1/8

[Rand Paul @RandPaul]

Tariffs are simply taxes. Conservatives once united against new taxes. Taxing trade will mean less trade and higher prices.

[Evan Solomon @EvanLSolomon]

Trudeau cites how “Canadians fought and died” beside you. Cites Iranian hostage crisis. Hurricane Katrina. La fires. 911. “We were always there”. He is not wrong to cite these key moments. The sense of betrayal is palpable.

@cecsquared Thank you!

My struggle with MAHA/MAGA, if you want to monetize the internet, sell your phony cures, health freedom nonsense, that’s your right it’s a 250 year American tradition. But don’t forget U.S. strength derives from our research universities/institutions that’s why we’re great nation

U.S. children’s vaccination rates are plummeting. Yet globally, the countries with the highest life expectancies all share one common factor: vaccination rates exceed those of the United States. We simply can’t “Make America Healthy Again” by “Making America Unvaccinated Again.”

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Donald Trump can’t change history, we know what we saw on this day four years ago. It was domestic terrorism, it was treason, plain and simple. No number of pardons or lies will change that.

@ClairedeLuned Amamas long de mama karim yu!

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

We express our heartfelt condolences to the American people and to the family of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter on his passing. He was a leader who served during a time when Ukraine was not yet independent, yet his heart stood firmly with us in our ongoing fight for freedom.

We deeply appreciate his steadfast commitment to Christian faith and democratic values, as well as his unwavering support for Ukraine in the face of Russia’s unprovoked aggression.

He devoted his life to promoting peace in the world and defending human rights. Today, let us remember: peace matters, and the world must remain united in standing against those who threaten these values.

May his memory be eternal.

@ClairedeLuned So glad to hear this!

[Dr. Angela Rasmussen @angie_rasmussen]

My replies are perpetually full of anti-vaxxers these days telling me about polio vaccines.

Not shockingly, most of what they are saying is wrong. Luckily, I trained with @profvrr & he taught me a few things about poliovirus.

So let’s discuss the king of the Picornaviridae👇🏻

I know what I was. I know what I loved. And had I been left to my own “free will” as many conceive of it, I’d still be an object of wrath.

When will X or Bluesky come up with an AI filter for sports posts? Would make life much more pleasant for the non-sports fans among us.

It's kind of amazing, and more than a bit sad, that the first year that Pac-12 schools have moved into other conferences after the conference's breakup, they are likely to end up winning two Power Four conference titles.

Three years ago at this time, health care workers began getting vaccinated against COVID after sustaining horrific losses on the front lines. Sometimes it feels like we’ve memory-holed so much of this catastrophe.

Remembering a few of their names…

[Edward Feser @FeserEdward]

It’s not enough, in individual life or in politics, to hate and fight against what is bad. One must, at a more fundamental level, love and promote what is truly good. Without that motivation, the defeat of evils is bound to result merely in their replacement with different evils.

[David Hornor @DavidHornor]

I think two things are true:

1. Joe pardoning Hunter makes it easier for Trump to pardon the J6 criminals.

2. Trump will likely pardon them regardless of what Joe has/hasn't done.

In 40 years as a palliative care nurse, my wife has never seen a patient die in agony. Always it has been possible to control their pain. Sometimes, it has taken a while to get the drugs right. But that has always been achieved.

[Charlie Savage @charlie_savage]

In his new book, Bill Barr talks about thwarting Trump’s attempt to make Kash Patel the deputy FBI director, an idea he says showed “a shocking detachment from reality.”
