NEW: HHS cancels funding for Moderna to develop vaccines to combat bird flu. This is the same technology that Trump hailed for saving lives during pandemic with Operation Warp Speed. ⁦Rachel Roubein⁩ and me. washingtonpost.com/health/2025/05…

Wouldn’t “the problem is Donald Trump” stomp on both the “populism” and “abundance” messages in a poll of Democratic voters? I’m not sure of the point of this exercise.

Trump just nominated Paul Ingrassia to run the Office of Special Counsel. Ingrassia is a former far-right podcast host and election denier who once shared an article calling for “martial law” to keep Donald Trump in office following his loss in the 2020 election. He's 29.

HHS has acknowledged they messed up the citations with the MAHA Report, using studies that don't exist to support its conclusions. They've added new citations...that make more mistakes and don't support the report's conclusions. notus.org/health-science…
