excerpt:

The Autism Science Foundation said it was “deeply concerned” about the announcement and characterized it as “dangerous.”

“We are unsure why this announcement came today and how the conclusions were drawn,” Alison Singer, the group’s president, said in a statement. “No new data or scientific studies were presented or shared. No new studies have been published in the literature. No new presentations on this topic were made at scientific or medical conferences. Instead, President Trump talked about what he thinks and feels without offering scientific evidence. He said ‘tough it out,’ meaning don’t take Tylenol or give it to your child. It took me straight back to when moms were blamed for autism. If you can’t take the pain or deal with a fever, then it’s your fault if your child has autism. That was shocking. Simply shocking.”

excerpt:

"His post emerged only hours after the top federal prosecutor in northern Virginia left his job under pressure. Erik Siebert had worked closely with Trump's top DOJ leaders this year, but he concluded he could not seek criminal charges the president wanted against James.

Now Lindsey Halligan, who had been serving as a special assistant to the president, was sworn in Monday as U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, though she has no prosecutorial experience. Most recently, she's been helping Trump remove what he calls "improper ideology" from the Smithsonian museums."

Leavitt says Trump wouldn't be opposed to adding a national holiday to honor Kirk.


Trump ‘open’ to adding a Charlie Kirk national holiday

excerpt:

During his first term, Trump signed a yearly proclamation marking Juneteenth and pledged to support the legislation that was eventually signed by Biden when he ran for re-election in the 2020 presidential race.

But after returning to office this year, he took to Truth Social on Juneteenth to denounce the same holiday he’d once supported as a candidate four years earlier.

He wrote: “Too many non-working holidays in America. It is costing our Country $BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to keep all of these businesses closed. The workers don’t want it either!”

 

A potential national holiday for Kirk.

The GOP could also propose putting a statue of him in Statuary Hall in the Capitol.

A note or coin with his face on it.

 

In April 2025 RFK Jr. promised to find the cause of autism by September 2025.

He was running out of time.

He named Tylenol as the cause.

excerpt:

Despite Zahorodny’s endorsement, many other autism scientists have expressed bafflement that Kennedy thinks he or NIH can find answers in months that they have not over decades. Asked whether he was standing by his vow to resolve what causes autism by September, Kennedy said: “We will have some of the answers by September.”

 

Trump makes unproven claims linking autism to Tylenol use by pregnant women

excerpt:

The US president claimed that taking Tylenol, known as paracetamol elsewhere, "is no good" and that pregnant women should only take it in cases of extreme fever.

Some studies have shown a link between pregnant women taking Tylenol and autism, but these findings are inconsistent and inconclusive. Tylenol maker Kenvue has defended the use of the drug in pregnant women.

 

Trump steered a reverent Charlie Kirk memorial totally off the rails | Opinion

excerpt:

“He did not hate his opponents," Trump said of Kirk. "He wanted the best for them. That’s where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponent, and I don’t want the best for them. I’m sorry." As bad as that sounds, presidential adviser Stephen Miller was worse.

A reminder that this was a memorial service.

And a truly confounding TV experience.

 

Stephen Miller tried to sound worse than Trump.


Trump steered a reverent Charlie Kirk memorial totally off the rails | Opinion

excerpt:

“We will prevail over the forces of wickedness and evil. They cannot imagine what they have awakened. They cannot conceive of the army they have arisen in all of us.”

"We stand for what is good, what is virtuous, what is noble. And to those trying to incite violence against us, those trying to foment hatred against us, what do you have? You have nothing. You are nothing. You are wickedness, you are jealousy, you are envy, you are hatred. You are nothing."

Once again, I think it's important to point out that this was a memorial service.

 

Late night dark humor skits.

With the widow of Kirk resting her head on Trump's shoulder and tears shedding at the funeral, Trump rambles on about sending the military into cities to try to stop crime, finishing his giant golden ballroom at the White House, curing autism by getting rid of Tylenol, sabotaging wind turbine projects, and announcing that he's awarding Ben Carson the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

 

A judge has lifted Trump's halting of nearly complete offshore wind turbines.

Trump has sabotaged numerous other wind projects.

His usual tactic is to appeal lower court rulings to the Supreme Court whose conservatives have been generous to him by allowing him to continue his actions until it is ruled later whether or not his actions are legal.

The conservatives on the Supreme Court kicked the can down the road to defend Trump but also acted quickly when it aided him.


SCOTUS just gave Trump what it would not give Jack Smith, and the court's liberals are outraged

excerpt:

"SCOTUS was unmoved in that instance, kicking the can down the road for half a year and ever closer to the 2024 election before ruling in Trump's favor — with various impacts on both of his since-tossed federal cases and the New York hush-money prosecution that nonetheless ended with 34 felony convictions.

But on Monday, the conservative majority jumped at the chance to potentially upend a 90-year-old precedent, granting Trump certiorari before judgment on the president's bid to assert executive power over independent agencies through the firing of the lone Democratic FTC commissioner "without cause" — and much to the dismay of the court's liberal minority."

 

Musk generated government waste in the most bonheaded way possible.

Trump is begging the workers to return. They received seven months of pay for quitting.


Elon Musk’s DOGE Layoffs Reversed As Donald Trump Begs Fired Workers To Return

excerpt:

"Citing an internal memo, Associated Press reported that the GSA has told affected workers- who manage federal offices and leases- they have until the end of the week to accept or decline reinstatement. Those who agree must report back by October 6, effectively returning after a seven-month paid absence that, in some cases, has cost taxpayers millions as leases on unused properties continued to run."
