Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"Mangione in many ways embodies exactly what MAGA hates: an Ivy League graduate who had “learned to code” and whose rhetoric about the healthcare system could have been ripped from the pages out of a Bernie Sanders speech. (In fact, the University of Pennsylvania from which Mangione graduated, just had $175 million in funding suspended by President Trump, who takes issue with its policy on transgender athletes.)</p><p>Bondi says that Mangione’s alleged act involved “substantial planning and premeditation,” another criteria that creates the aura of terrorism, rather than just conspiracy.</p><p>Then comes the most absurd claim of all, with Bondi saying that because there were “bystanders nearby,” Mangione’s actions “may have posed grave risk of death to additional persons.” (Mangione reportedly decided against using a bomb for the explicit purpose of avoiding harm to anyone else.) Under this logic, the government could choose to prosecute any arsonist or perpetrator of road rage as a terrorist. It’s hard to think of any violent crime that doesn’t hypothetically endanger bystanders.</p><p>Charging individuals with terrorism or labeling them as terrorists is inherently a political decision on the part of the government.

Munaeem's Blog<h2>Trump’s Science Smackdown: Who Needs Facts&nbsp;Anyway?</h2> So, you’re sipping your drink, and I lean in: “Did you hear Trump’s basically torching science in the U.S.?” You’d laugh, thinking I’m exaggerating—except I’m not. Since January 2025, the Trump administration’s been swinging at scientific learning like it’s a piñata, and what’s spilling out isn’t candy.

Shaula Evans<p>My frustration with this study, at least as reported, is that the diet recommendations are founded on outdated assumptions about food quality.</p><p>E.g., the recommendaion of one serving of fish per week: where do mercury and microplastics fit in? Or the diet that recommends peanut oil but doesn't mention afflatoxin. </p><p>When experts fail to put recommendations into a bigger context, I have to do that myself -- which takes the "public" part out of public health (again). 2/n</p><p><a href="https://zirk.us/tags/PublicHealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PublicHealth</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/SciComm" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SciComm</span></a></p>
