How it started: We don’t need anything from Canada! How it’s going: • Wait, they’re our main source of aluminum? • Oil too? Seriously? • Potash? So farms need that? • They spend billions in tourism? • They make American cars? • My house is basically Canadian? • WTF, we rely on them for electricity?

Don’t fall for this misleading myth that RFK Jr is pushing. “To suggest that vitamins, good nutrition or other remedies can prevent measles is misleading and dangerous.” “I’m a pediatrician. Here's the truth about RFK Jr.'s vitamin A recommendation.” www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Opinion | I’m a doctor. Don't fall for this myth about vitamin A and measles.
As a pediatrician, I’ve seen firsthand how children can suffer from diseases like this one.

This is deeply illegal, violating appropriations law, authorizations law, and the Impoundment Control Act. It is also deeply immoral, condemning people to die.

After a 6 week review we are officially cancelling 83% of the programs at USAID.
The 5200 contracts that are now cancelled spent tens of billions of dollars in ways that did not serve, (and in some cases even harmed), the core national interests of the United States.
In consultation with Congress, we intend for the remaining 18% of programs we are keeping (approximately 1000) to now be administered more effectively under the State Department.
Thank you to DOGE and our hardworking staff who worked very long hours to achieve this overdue and historic reform.

In a better world Democrats would take the high road and be polite and respectful. But this is definitely not a better world and while we don't have to sink to Republican levels of dishonesty and hate, we have to start standing up, be more aggressive and NEVER vote with the Republicans!

This is why we have debt. It’s tax cuts for the wealthy not programs for tbe poor. There are more sources and you can find them easily online. www.americanprogress.org/article/tax-...

Tax Cuts Are Primarily Responsible for the Increasing Debt Ratio
Without the Bush and Trump tax cuts, debt as a percentage of the economy would be declining permanently.

The lead prosecutor on the Adams investigation has resigned from the federal prosecutor's office in Manhattan rather than agree to file a motion seeking to dismiss the corruption case against the mayor. In his resignation letter, Hagan Scotten wrote that any federal prosecutor
"would know that our laws and traditions do not allow using the prosecutorial power to influence other citizens, much less elected officials." He added: "If no lawyer within earshot of the president is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me."
