Today’s act of political violence in Utah against Charlie Kirk is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable.
We don’t have to agree on everything, but we should all agree on this: political violence is wrong, and has no place in our democracy

In the United States of America, we must reject political violence in EVERY form.

Florida's Surgeon General is dead wrong. Requiring children to get vaccinated to prevent measles, mumps & polio is not akin to "slavery."
Over the past 50 years, vaccines have saved millions of lives & reduced the infant mortality rate by 40%.
Vaccines save lives — period.

Trump is quietly rewriting the rules to turn nonpartisan public service into a loyalty test. If he succeeds, the federal government will serve one man, not one nation. Max Stier explains the spoils system resurgence.
For Trump, 'The state is me'
That's why his administration wants to subject government employees to loyalty tests.

The Wall Street Journal had a piece last night that the Judicial Conference of the United States — the policy making body for the federal judiciary — is discussing whether the Judiciary should have its own armed security force rather than rely on the U.S. Marshals for federal judges’ protection.
