The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU

The brutality of the Trump-Putin alliance that has been unleashed on Ukraine in recent days is staggering. It comes as no surprise, but it is still shocking.
Whether it likes it or not, Europe has become the last stronghold of the rule of law.

Vaccine-preventable illnesses are serious - this is going to cause real harms.
This is dangerous & disappointing.
