Save Your Child from Autocracy and Poverty! In 1917 the U.S. started the war savings stamps program, with incredible poster such as this. Sadly, this is us here and NOW! It is an internal message. Autocracy wants poverty and dismantling of rights for a one-party, one person rule. #resist

I hope folks realize that between Trump, Kushner, Hegseth, Witkoff, Noem, RFK, Jr., Kash Patel, and Tulsi Gabbard, this country is almost entirely undefended.
Q: Have you heard this audio that Bloomberg has of Witkoff coaching the Russians on how to appeal to you?
TRUMP: That's a standard thing. He's gotta sell this to Ukraine, he's gonna sell Ukraine to Russia. That's what a dealmaker does. I haven't heard it but I heard it was standard negotiation.

To combat bird flu spread, other countries have authorized poultry vaccines. The U.S. hasn’t, amid political and economic pushback.
Without a vaccine, experts say the virus poses an escalating threat: “The minute it transmits to humans, it’s done.”
