The Epinhood (TEH)

www.nytimes.com/2025/12/08/world/africa/sudan-un-attack-rsf.html When I was a kid my best friend was a WWII veteran so I gained a healthy skepticism and pride for good wars. Then my eyes were opened to Haiti. Then I went to college and September 11th and a retaliatory war turned into an oil crusade. Then I learned that genocide in Sudan…

All the expats fleeing the now routine slaughter by the Netanyahu and Trump war machine. The inhabitants of the Middle East cannot flea the axis of Israel and U.S. aggression. Are the lives of the innocent in Iran long smashed between their own government and my own less worthy of existence. When will the good…

However, if we are going to continue our aggressive kill everything that moves strategy in Iran, I really think he should take his medications before the press conference. Not that focus and self respect are necessary in a secretary of defense but surely it will be useful especially if our military ever has to fight…

That is if judge a military by their capacity to defend themselves against a larger and more aggressive power. Maybe America and Israel had the greatest military but under Trump and Netanyahu it’s more like giving arsenals to 3 year olds to kill all the flying insects. Reporters keep using the word muscular. Seriously our…

Now this statement coming from the U.S. administration is exactly what the evil axis says. We are so much more noble than this trash. Every American needs to dig deep and acknowledge that no one appointed Trump and the GOP as the grim reaper and self proclaimed executioner of entire countries. Mark this too, that’s…

Listen to yourself news media and then crack a book. The Ayatollah Komeini came to power and started the Theocracy madness because the Shah was great for business but brutal to his own people. Break the cycles. Trump and Netanyahu are just the most blatant examples of a long line of foreign men thinking they…

Let me start by saying everything the U.S. is doing in Iran right now is wrong. Literally our President is the Ayatollah’s twin. Just replace theocracy with Trumpism. Otherwise their impulses and strategies are identical. Each ruleswith threats, zero tolerance, and marketing, and they love seeing their picture and name everywhere. Both have ruthless survival…

Correction my reporter friends. President Clinton and Obama negotiated peace agreements without leveling countries and single handily executing government leaders they disagreed with. If Iran was suddenly sprinting for ballistics then maybe Trump should have sent a better negotiating team than his son-in-law and a buddy. Every one, including myself, is somewhat happy this Iranian…

I too have fantasies of smashing my enemies for valor. Most boys and likely women, especially after marriage, have this impulse too. Sit in a soft chair, wear an oversized hat, savor the agreement of such stern faces around you. Then give the order: fleets, flights, and feet roll into motion. Time and attention fuse.…

I hear in the news report that Trump shows up at another international conference and acts like a sociopathic petulant child and other countries grovel to our demands. The reporter makes a fond remembrance about the time when we had a human in chief that cared about future generations right to clean air, water, air.…

I once saw a copy of Dr. King’s schedule in a book or something. My jaw dropped. I had never seen anything like it. I knew then although I totally understood his mission and tried to emulate it — well I know then how insignificant I was. The man was triple booked all over the…

I am an old PHD student and professor and I understand the potential of AI. I also understand the risks. The greater risk though is that there isn’t a moral AI equivalent. Instead AI advances in the void of one of the darkest periods in the history of our genus. Morally bankrupt men and women…

Why? The itch and the scratch. Most people know Dr. John Snow was a physician. Even more people know he was the father of Epidemiology. Many are aware of the linkages to Cholera and Victorian England, sewerage, sanitation and lest we forget the good Chadwick and Prince Albert. Here’s what less readers induct and take…

www.nytimes.com/2026/01/01/nyregion/mamdani-inauguration-speech-transcript.html I tried to copy the section of the speech and paste it but the technology now prevents copying and pasting eloquent quotes, so I will paraphrase. If Mr. Mamdani can deliver on the promise of making the New Deal solutions to wicked problems like unemployment, segregation, and inequality real again, he will always have…

Listen y’all. I loved The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Twenty years ago I became an Epidemiologist because of the CDC. The CDC paid for my MPH. The CDC trained the DoD Epi Consults that trained me as an Epidemiologist 2. I worked with the CDC for the two pandemics of my lifetime AND…

How many days until we can take back our government? What’s Christmas looking like America? Climate change? It’s bad. Are we prepared for the next Pandemic?
