Happy Monday and $Buster claim day! Below are some quick channel updates. 1. Make sure to claim your $Buster in the Cura app. 2. Last week's /policast questions have been resolved, and winnings have been distributed. 3. We're updating the backend of Policast so new questions won't be released until tomorrow. I'm excited for you all to see what @ayojoseph has been cooking. 4. The Politics Book Club is scheduled for tomorrow. The zoom link and questions are in the chat.

“It was the kind of encounter that is a staple of local police work, only this time the officers who asked to look inside the bag were accompanied by agents from five separate federal law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and the Secret Service, according to records filed in a local court.” I thought everyone was worried about wasting taxpayer dollars? This feels like that meme of all the constriction workers looking at the 1 guy actually doing the work. https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/inside-trumps-dc-crackdown-swarms-agents-arrests-minor-offenses-2025-08-27/

It is said that grand juries will indict a ham sandwich, it is incredibly rare for them not to indict a defendant. Now 3 indictments thrown out in one week, for felony assaults on fed boys! Jury nullification for the win. NGL this kinda turns me on. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/us/politics/dc-grand-juries-indictments.html

I sure hope RFK Jr. can find out what's causing the malaise at the CDC. "Kennedy’s promotion of vaccine skepticism has prompted panic within the CDC, which is part of his department and was in turmoil even before Trump fired CDC Director Susan Monarez on Wednesday night. A swath of layoffs across HHS and proposed budget cuts threaten the agency’s decades of work. Kennedy removed all members of a key committee that recommends vaccine guidance, detailing the actions in a Wall Street Journal opinion article, and replaced them with members who include vaccine opponents." https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trump-rfk-jr-cdc-vaccine-politics-0d388544?st=DgK3Vd
