Speaking in Dallas this afternoon, former President George. W Bush made a significant verbal slip-up while discussing the war in Ukraine.

He tried referencing what he described as the “wholly unjustified and brutal invasion” — but said Iraq, instead of Ukraine.

Most global media coverage has attributed India’s ongoing Covid-19 crisis to two key causes: the Indian government’s mismanaged pandemic response and Big Pharma. https://t.co/Bc6PgebxOf

There is significant criticism in media of Bill Gates role on stopping vaccine patents to be in public domain. There is zero criticism of Nadan Nilekani taking over our public welfare systems in the name of solving everything with tech.

So in the name of Make in India, we the tax payers acting through the ICMR funded a home grown vaccine that is now almost twice as expensive as the overpriced AZ one.

Like wow.

Assam's latest Covid-19 order issuing curbs allows gatherings upto 400 in open spaces and 100 in closed spaces, but insists that shop-owners should sanitise notes/coins before handing over to customers.

Telling of how much science informs policy even after more than a year.

I have been so unfair to Nityananda. Jaggi is as crazy in his utterances. He just uses the language that we english speaking caste privileged bozos love and hence whatever he says is assumed as classy or deep. Even if we disagree we will not put him down the way we do Nityananda.

Hoping these looted American artifacts turn up on display in Baghdad's National Museum of Iraq and are kept there indefinitely for protection as well as for the cultural viewing pleasure of locals.

[Nikhil Dey @nikhilmkss]

A move to be acknowledged , appreciated , and congratulated . Another thing the @BJP4India needs to learn from some of the other political parties... It is sometimes good to relent, repeal , and correct, what public consultations show, is seen as anti people , & anti democratic

. @pbhushan1's statement before the SC in the contempt case. Refusing to apologise for doing the right thing. Bravo. He stood up when many who were meant to uphold Constitutional values shrunk away from their responsibilities.

Dear housing societies - if somebody in your area is tested positive & home- quarantined (because they are asymptomatic or due to shortage of beds in hospitals), please step up and make a rotation system to deliver meals to the patient's home because they can't & shouldn't cook.
