Trump wants his voters sick, weak, hungry and afraid - too desperate to pay attention or even vote. It is a tactic directly from the authoritarian playbook.
Look at the root causes of the Russian Revolution bf the Romanovs were executed. Romanovs had plenty of food & caviar. The people had nothing.

Let's be very clear that one of the major effects of the CDC no longer recommending various vaccinations is that it becomes much harder for folks who still want to be—or want their children to be—vaccinated to get their insurance providers to cover those vaccinations.

Wow, Adm. Holsey didn't leave of his own accord, Hegseth pushed him out. What looked like the SOCOM head resigning rather than do war crimes now looks like SecDef canning him to facilitate war crimes.
Congress should have him testify, and would've already if war-crime-sympathetic GOP didn't run it.

The most interesting part of this story isn’t that the pipe bomber is MAGA. That was blatantly obvious. What should interest folks is that the FBI and DoJ hid that fact from you, and still haven’t made a statement. This info is coming from sources on the condition of anonymity.

All of this…because they couldn’t be bothered to check her ID.
