#ICYMI: We found that the FDA allowed 20+ foreign factories to continue to send certain medications to the U.S. even after those facilities were banned because of concerns about contamination and other breaches.

The agency kept the practice largely hidden from the public and Congress.

Threat in Your Medicine Cabinet: The FDA’s Gamble on America’s Drugs

A ProPublica investigation found that for more than a decade, the FDA gave substandard factories banned from the United States a special pass to keep sending drugs to an unsuspecting public.

My big takeaway from Trump's lengthy Air Force One gaggle is that he's talking about shredding the Constitution by being in office for a third term increasingly openly.

If you don't think he try it, you're in denial.

Trump on a third term: "I would love to do it. I have the best numbers ever. Am I not ruling it out? You'll have to tell me."

That means the US may not make routine vaccine recommendations for more than half of children in 2026, and it could halt new vaccines in the pipeline. My latest:

This is another lie. Trump & Republicans find every conceivable way to plunder funds and redirect them to things they weren’t appropriated for, but money specifically set aside to feed people in a shutdown situation are now untouchable.

Trump screws his voters again: He just denied disaster aid to Maryland (while giving it to red states). But I took a look and it turns out the suffering Maryland counties are in Appalachia and backed him by 40 and 54 points.

New in PN: ICE is beyond repair

"The paramilitary cosplayers dreaming of civil war as their beer guts spill out below their tactical vests have been remarkably quiet this year. That’s because Trump no longer needs them. He has his own army of thugs, one even more lawless & violent. It’s called ICE"

ICE is out of control and beyond repair

This agency needs to be stripped down to the studs. Dems should start preparing now.
