The President says the Iran war will end "very soon." How many times have we heard that promise? And if it means attacks on two major American cities in the process, he is not troubled by the cost.

Experts say now is an ideal time to get a flu shot, before influenza starts spreading widely. It's also a good time for vulnerable people to get vaccinated against another winter risk, RSV, and to get up to date on protection against COVID-19.

If a claim doesn’t implode quite as spectacularly as this one did, it’s easy enough for the right-wing influencers who promote it to brazen it out for audiences who may never make contact with reality. Initially, that seemed to be the plan.

This is corruption of the highest order. Susan Collins delivered millions in taxpayer dollars for a corrupt donor bankrolling her campaign, and then Donald Trump helped her cover it up. No wonder she voted with him 96% of the time and has rubberstamped his agenda to hurt Maine.
