Trump was asked this afternoon if Iran is targeting U.S. assets. His answer? “We are doing very well.” Followed by “my approval rating is the highest ever.” Yikes.

Imagine if the headline were, "Trump refuses to show most basic decency" or "Trump continues to ratchet up tensions in wake of assassination" rather than "we hang on Trump's every word."
President Trump said that he had no plans to call Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota after a man assassinated a state lawmaker there and wounded another over the weekend.

"I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out, I’m not calling him," Trump told reporters.

There’s an overwhelming number of awful things happening.

My gentle suggestion is to consider attending a protest tomorrow if you can.

In addition to exercising your rights, it can be helpful to be in a sea of people who share your values.

MAGA has exploited this, and now it’s our turn.

We should be investing in rural communities and making them better places to build a life & raise a family - not shutting down rural hospitals by choking off their funding.

Saving rural hospitals is one more reason to call your Representative and speak out against this GOP attempt to cut Medicaid.
Hundreds of rural hospitals are at risk of closing, threatening critical care
Hospital officials told CBS News the closure was driven by the same factors that have closed other rural hospitals: low reimbursement rates.

Boycotting large chains is a privilege.

Protesting is a privilege.

Moving States or countries is a privilege.

Prepping is a privilege.

Growing your own food is a privilege.

Stockpiling meds is a privilege.

Far too many of the “solutions” to fascism are inaccessible to many disabled people.

A baby's life was saved thanks to a custom gene-editing treatment that was made just for him and designed to fix his precise mutation.

The therapy was built on decades of federally funded research, and could one day treat millions. But advances like this are at risk due to science funding cuts.

Fluoride is ALL NATURAL.

Especially in water! How do you think we thought to add fluoride to water that doesn’t already have it?

Cause people drinking ALL-NATURAL fluoridated water had BETTER HEALTH OUTCOMES.

We can’t all live in a fluoride BLUE ZONE but everyone deserves those HOLISTIC benefits.

Every Republican in Congress should be asked if they agree with Trump that it’s a “good thing” if truck drivers and dockworkers lose their jobs
REPORTER: But we're seeing as a result that ports here in the US, the traffic has really slowed and now thousands of dockworkers are truck drivers are worried about their jobs

TRUMP: That means we lose less money ... when you say it slowed down, that's a good thing, not a bad thing

Almost all pediatric influenza deaths occur in unvaccinated children.

In 2020-2021 only 1 child died from flu in this country because of pandemic mitigation measures, like masking and remote schooling. You don’t hear people complain about hundreds of dead kids as much as they do about those things.
ATLANTA (AP) - US reports 216 child flu deaths this season, the most in 15 years.

There is no aborted fetus debris in the MMR vaccine, or in any vaccine at all.

It is worth noting that the Catholic Church, one of the most staunch anti-abortion organizations in the world, has a formal policy that encourages all vaccinations.

this is legitimately evil
Just to be clear, this is a violation of the fundamental ethical principle in clinical trial design called "equipoise."

Equipoise means that no-one is exposed to excess risk just to test the therapy. That's specifically *why* vaccine trials don't use placebo arms.

Ethical violation as POLICY.

With all the talk of product shortages , I think it should be said that products will first find their way to densely populated areas first and everywhere else, last

This certainly will hurt all those red counties. How they react to their shelves being everything will define the midterms
