1). The US is in the middle of the worst flu season in a decade. 2). Pertussis cases are the highest they have been in 20 years. 3). Measles has rebounded and elimination status has been lost. RFK.Jr. has not recommended vaccination, instead he is aggressively rolling back vaccine policy.

Here are three more factual statements: 1. 25,000 of Mike Johnson's constituents are about to lose health care 2. 27,000 more are about to have their premiums skyrocket. 3. A 60 year old couple in his district would pay $19,000 more a year.

Journalists should be asking questions like "if ACA subsidies go to undocumented immigrants, how much money went out the door for that during your time as OMB director? Why didn't you put an end to it?"

It’s hard to know where to begin with this from ACIP member Retsef Levi. Let’s start with the fact he has no real world responsibility for treating sick kids. He’s a spectator. And he’s dunking on the doctors who will be there if your child gets sick. 🧵

One of the most dangerous myths in American politics today is that authoritarianism is something that happens “over there.” It doesn’t. Not anymore. Not in 2025. Because the fight for democracy — and against it — is now global. open.substack.com/pub/trygveol...
