The DOJ recruited criminal prosecutors and an FBI official to monitor polls in Arizona, according to documents we obtained. This major change from long-standing election monitoring practices is concerning. We will continue to investigate and hold the Trump-Vance admin accountable.

The departure from long-standing practice “carries the real risk that election interference and voter intimidation will follow,” a former department official said.

The Trump-Vance administration is using public funds to air political ads, including one used in President Trump’s 2024 campaign. This unlawful use of taxpayer funds to air Trump’s partisan propaganda must be stopped. We will see to it in court.

The aide calls it a “deep state” takedown, a claim JD Vance has echoed. Apparently, going after the people who investigated Trump wasn’t enough. Now we’re reaching back to the 1970s. Anything to keep us looking backward instead of at what this administration is doing right now.

This is an entirely new phenomenon because before the vaccine, most women who survived measles were immune because they had it when they were young. But now, idiots who refuse to get vaccinated are giving birth to babies with measles. Two babies have died. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
nbcnews.com
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.
