3 infant #pertussis deaths this year in Kentucky. "Of the three infant deaths reported over the past 12 months, all three were not vaccinated, nor were their mothers."

We first tested maternal vaccination for whooping cough over 80 years ago. It's safe & effective & might have saved these babies.

I wonder if the Mamdani meeting was like the 180 on Zelensky, only to sell him out later.
President Zelensky: "We are facing one of the most dangerous periods in Ukrainian history, a choice between losing our dignity and freedom and losing US support. We choose dignity. My answer is my oath of office. I did not betray Ukraine in Feb 2022 and we won’t betray in now."

I am not sure what the Founding Fathers but I am not sure Pence and others understand that the support for "the return of the Jewish people to Israel" was not always a benign idea. Here is an example, admittedly, from a different time and place.

⚡️ Zelenskyy says Europe must remember that Ukraine is the only shield standing between comfortable European life and Putin’s ambitions.

He warns Ukraine cannot face another February 24 moment of feeling alone, saying only heroic Ukrainians stopped the Russian army last time.
History will never forgive us if we abandon Ukraine.

Nor should anyone else.
NEW: Brutal to watch Zelensky address his nation just now. On the brink of being abandoned by the US.

"Right now is one of the most difficult moments in our history. At this moment, Ukraine may face a very hard choice: either the loss of dignity, or the risk of losing a key partner."

A Trump quote without his face or voice - Trump without Trump. The quote is unedited and 100% accurate. This is from the McDonald's Impact Summit on November 17, 2025 - The drip drip water.
The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.
Any President who calls for the opposition party to be hanged should be immediately impeached and removed from office.

The House of Fragile Things: Jewish Art Collectors and the Fall of France

Since arriving in Congress in 2019 as the youngest Black woman ever elected, I’ve had 19 pieces of legislation signed into law — delivering real progress on health care, veterans’ services, homeland security, and more.
The moment when 30 million American's received healthcare (2010) The moment when insurance companies had to start covering preexisting conditions, young adults could stay on their family's policy and I could trust that the small print couldn't screw me if I needed serious medical assistance. 🇺🇸

The fact that the American president’s former best friend is helping Russia blackmail the president should be a far bigger story than it is.

It should be on the front page of every major news outlet
I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

What's your take, David?

The deal to reopen the government didn't include ACA subsidies but it included giving Lindsey Graham the right to sue the government (read taxpayers) for $500,000. Graham opposed the subsidies & plans to sue for that $500k. Classic Lindsey Graham. SC can do better with @drannieandrews.com
Deal to reopen government allows SC’s Graham to sue for $500K. He plans to do it

@bloomberg.com this chart doesn't tell a full story. One also has to account for who controlled the Congress.
Trump: Take a look at this if you want to see detail. Most people do a sign and paint it on the wall. So that's half inch thick bronze. Carved. By a very talented person. And it's brass. It's pure brass.

Those who follow Catholic news wouldn't say it's been a quiet papacy.
