🚨Holy crap! Ken Paxton partied on New Year’s Eve 2024 in Dubai with his girlfriend and two U.S. fugitives (Anosh Ahmed and Sameer Suhail) charged in healthcare fraud/embezzlement schemes. Ahmed, a major donor, gave about $190,000 to Paxton’s campaign — including after his indictment.

Senate Banking just launched the Trumpflation Tracker. The affordability crisis is not a “hoax” like Donald Trump says. See for yourself how much more you’re paying because of Trump’s failed economic agenda
Trumpflation Tracker. Cumulative inflation since Dec. 2024: 5.2%, approximately $3,388 more for the average household. Real wage growth since start of Iran War: -0.7%. Wages aren’t keeping up with Trump’s inflation. 30-year mortgage rate up from 5.99% before the war to 7.6%, or $4,330 more per year for a typical household. Household debt, Q1 ’25 to Q2 ’26: +$56B. Families going into more debt just to get by. Total cost to American borrowers of Trump’s broken promise to cap credit card interest rates: $94.9B. Share of each extra dollar of income going to household debt: 52¢. Take-home income up $109/month since 2022; debt payments up $57. Cost of Living Basket Since Dec. 2024: Electricity +12.7%, approximately $222 more for the average household. Rent +5.1%, approximately $256 more. Gasoline +43.7%, approximately $758 more. Groceries +3.7%, approximately $211 more. Child Care +7.6%, approximately $852 more. Health Care +14.6%, approximately $929 more for average family coverage.

FYI: The flu has started earlier this year in September & officials are stating that it might be a better idea to get a vaccine shot sooner, especially those with chronic illnesses. www.npr.org/2026/10/07/n...
npr.org
An early flu season means it might be time to think about a flu shot
Flu season typically starts in October or November. But it looks like the flu started to pick up in September this year.

We didn’t learn anything from Covid. People are already confidently calling the plague a nothingburger. Sure, we have cipro and doxycycline. The obvious concern here is that this strain was modified to be antibiotic resistant or spread more easily. We simply don’t know yet.

Trump officially rolled back fuel efficiency standards today. The new target for 2031 is about 34.5 miles per gallon, down from 50.4. That means more gas burned, more pollution, and more money out of drivers’ pockets. So much for making things affordable.

America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
