It’s Wednesday so it’s time for Defend Public Health’s Whopper of the Week! This time the team takes on RFK Jr.’s erratic and irrational messaging on measles. Like I said last week, we will unfortunately never run out of material for this column and sometimes we have too much to choose from.

Whopper of the Week: RFK Jr.'s Measly Messaging On Measles | Defend Public Health
Secretary Kennedy is unwilling to deliver the clear, simple message that measles is a serious disease that can be safely avoided with two doses of the measles, mumps, rubella vaccine.

How do I know Hegseth’s order to deny access to bases to members of Congress is about a cover up, not about safety? Because I asked for a military briefing at the embassy as a substitute and was told the policy prohibited military leaders in the region from even talking to me.

Trump promises you $5,000 if Republicans win. If it sounds like he's trying to buy your vote, that's because he's doing exactly that. It's illegal but the 34x convicted felon doesn't give AF. A campaign promise won’t pay a hospital bill. It won’t replace your insurance.

Russia’s sham Duma elections were an insult to Ukraine, to the Russian people, and to democracy itself. Putin hates democracy because he is threatened by it. That is why – along with destroying civil society and repressing political opposition – Russia meddles in the democratic space of others.

The President said he’d send you DOGE checks and tariff rebates. He never did. Now he’s lying again. He’s desperately trying to cling to power. Americans don’t need more empty promises. They need real action to make life more affordable.

Andrei Kolesnikov: "It is amazing that a contemporary modernized and urbanized society can degenerate at such a staggering rate, especially in terms of morality and psychology." He writes about Russia, but the same is true of Trump's US. What a tragedy!

A short lesson on diesel exports: Each day, the US produces about 1.3 million more barrels of diesel than it consumes and ranks among the world’s largest exporters of diesel. The high price of diesel in the USA is NOT due to a shortage. The price is high because it is set by world markets. 1/3

In a rare interview, Patrick Schiltz, who served as the federal court’s chief judge last winter, called the administration’s actions “a grave threat to the rule of law.”
