Why do we like vaccines and water systems so much?
It used to be 50/50 whether your kid lived to be an adult. With 4 kids, 94% chance they wouldn't all make it.
Fun times. Maybe let's not do that again.
We don't have magic cures for diseases like measles. We have vaccines.

Besides condemning Trump’s hatefulness, the hatchet dismantling of our government, and the divitalizing tax breaks for the rich, I applaud Cory Booker for setting the record for the longest Senate speech -previously held by a bigoted SC Senator who’s aim was to prevent the Civil Rights Act of 1957.

This is just sooo good. I’m looking at other articles, apparently they couldn’t figure out how to stop it and had to manually turn off every tv! 😂

I did not have “dick pic” on my today’s congressional discussions bingo card. But I did have President Elon Musk… so it’s a win?
Garcia: "I find it ironic that our chairman, Rep. Greene, is in charge of running this committee. In the last Congress, Chairwoman Greene literally showed a dick pic in our Oversight hearing, so I thought I'd bring one as well. This, of course, is President Elon Musk ... "

We need to call out the blatant lie being pushed by the Trump administration—that Elon’s staffers have only “read-only” access. It has been confirmed across departments that they have “administrative” access to computer systems.
