"Only about one-fifth of the data recorded during Parker’s initial flyby will reach scientists before the sun gets between Earth and the spacecraft again. The rest of the data will be downlinked next year, between March and May. Scientists hope to start publishing results soon after."
"Executives at Johnson & Johnson (J&J) knew for decades that the talcum in its baby powder contained asbestos and failed to tell federal regulators, according to a Reuters report." Well, if that wasn't a big "fuck you" to their customers. Now if the market worked exactly as people tell us it would work in a free market world, J&J would be out of business by next year. Even though there's nothing to prevent it in our current market, I wouldn't bet that way. (Grokked from Ann Leckie)
"The Department of Housing and Urban Development hasn’t announced a formal policy denying FHA loans for DACA recipients, but lenders tell BuzzFeed News that’s the guidance they’re getting from officials." Yes, they are just that petty. (Grokked from Joy Reid)
"Veterans Affairs Secretary Robert Wilkie gave inaccurate answers to senators during his confirmation process about pro-Confederate speeches he delivered in 2009." That's a nice way of saying he lied.
"Citing government records and 'interviews with individuals familiar with the matter,' Vox reported that the former Trump campaign chairman was providing this advice while both he and the White House knew Manafort was personally under FBI investigation. Contact between the two parties continued through this year, according to court filings from special counsel Robert Mueller." Why it's almost like they knew something bad was coming down the road. Like they were guilty of something. (Grokked from Kathryn Cramer)
