Every GOP Senator who voted to confirm RFK Jr. and now stays silent as he crusades against vaccines, which have saved 150+ million lives, is complicit in the disease outbreaks that may result.

The CDC’s endorsement of separating the MMR vaccine into three shots is based not on science but on “what I feel”, according to the president. It will require more doctor visits and more needles, reducing uptake and increasing measles rates.

The Speaker has prevented Congress from even voting on tariffs — the biggest tax hike in modern American history.

They want the mandate but not the accountability.

That's not leadership.

No matter how hard the Speaker tries to change the subject, Medicaid is about health care, not about immigration. Americans see through the talking points and understand that their health-care bills will go up so that taxes for the rich can go down.

The middle class is paying more for everything in Trump's economy. There are simple, popular policies on Medicaid & tariffs that could help. To lower prices, the president should get to yes on them in today's meeting.

Monarez: "Kennedy made another set of assertions associated with CDC that were particularly pointed and hurtful and disparaging ... he said that CDC employees were killing children and they don't care"

You don’t see it directly b/c of their insurance games, but you’re paying for their price-gouging through your premiums and co-pays.

If bagels cost $7 in one market and $400 at another across the street, you’d ask the grocery managers some tough questions. Well, that’s Rx drugs under the control of the pharmacy benefit managers — the middlemen of drug pricing. www.cap-rx.com/insights/ah0...

From the CEO: "We would ask for a sensible tariff policy that would benefit a company that has invested in domestic manufacturing, against the tide of our industry. Instead, we're being punished for sticking with U.S. manufacturing."

Strength: strangling Russian oil exports & sending 300 billion euros of its frozen assets to Ukraine's military. Then, summoning Putin to negotiations with NATO + Ukraine.

With such a slapdash summit, the best one can hope for is that Trump pressures Putin to release Ukrainian children as a trust-building measure to advance talks.

It’s not his ‘next’ target. It’s always been the target. RFK Jr. is going to use VICP to derail vaccine development & distribution.
