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.

ICE BEHIND THE MASKS HAVE NAMES 2 masked agents threatened to arrest Robert Peck for legally observing them. He sued. “And now, because of a lawsuit, the (ICE) agents have names.” A Hylton 📌Nicholas Lapointe 📌Christopher Semler I hope more people take ICE to court when their rights are violated.

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective. Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive. Hard to describe how bad this is.

New York: heavy rain and severe thunderstorms are making their way to our city once again.
 
City agencies are preparing and mobilizing emergency teams, and you should prepare too. The greatest risk of heavy rainfall and localized flash flooding is expected Tuesday afternoon and evening, including during the evening commute, with rain and storms possible through Thursday.
 
Stay inside during downpours, strong winds and thunderstorms. Text NOTIFYNYC to 692-692 for emergency updates.
Conditions can worsen quickly. Stay safe and, as always, look out for your neighbors.
