In 1962, Roald Dahl's daughter Olivia died of measles.
In twelve hours.
Now, children are dying again for the same reason — they weren’t vaccinated.
It doesn't have to be this way.

....Remind me again, why do we want "very sick kids" dying from measles when it is preventable?
RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated.
“Only very sick kids should die from measles.”
No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die.
Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!

Has she ever visited the Library of Congress? It's not open to the public. You need to get a pass either for the day or an actual library card. Children under the age of 16 are not there unaccompanied.
Reporter: The president fired the Librarian of Congress. Why?
Leavitt: There were quite concerning things she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting inappropriate books in the library for children.

Cardinal Robert Prevost has requested everyone use the name Pope Leo XIV when addressing him.
No one seems to have a problem with using the name he’s chosen despite it not being his birth name.
Seems like a courtesy we might extend to everyone if they request it.

I have yet to hear one complaint about DEI from anyone who actually knows what it is.
Marriott’s CEO said it straight: “We welcome all… we create opportunities for all… that’s who we are as a company.”
He went back to his hotel to find 40K emails from Marriott associates worldwide saying “thank you.”
Plenty of CEOs talk. Capuano showed up.
Marriott still has my business.
