During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

The people who voted for Trump didn’t think they were driving a truck over a street full of people, but in effect they were. Many, many Americans will die because of the Trump regime’s destruction of our public health system.

Congrats, MAGA, you’ve owned the Libs—and all it’s cost you is a functioning government, a working democracy, human rights, national peace, economic stability, affordable groceries, affordable healthcare, qualified leaders, and global standing.

Well, Trump Supporters, as a member of the woke radical Left, it kills me to say this, but you win.

Is it through Trump's new for-profit prescription company, TrumpRX?

Wait, what?! @whyisthat.bsky.social · 7h

T-RR is announcing prescription drug costs being lowered by Astra Zeneca IF YOU BUY THROUGH HIS SITE, TRUMP RX.
He makes money off this new business venture.
Why did these pharmaceutical companies not give these discounts through our current system? Because T-RR wants his cut.
Is this legal?

I was just looking for that number and read an article that said they are not supporting U.S calls because it's way more than they can handle and they want to make sure canadians have access, which seems fair. I'm not sure what the numbers are.But I wish we had an image listing them.

We need to wonder if the government will ever "re-open".

"RIF" has been used in all public and private employment for decades, but probably not as much recently, so it's quite understandable that a lot of people are unfamiliar with it.

Voters in California who live more than 50 miles from a USPS regional mail center must mail their VBM ballots AT LEAST ONE DAY BEFORE ELECTION DAY to ensure they're postmarked on time and counted. Ballots mailed on ED will be postmarked the following day, making them ineligible.
