Senator Raphael Warnock ahead of the vote on RFK Jr. for HHS Secretary:
"I simply do not trust him to oversee the CDC. He's unqualified, and I dare say that everybody here knows it."

Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election.

New on MSNBC: Vice President Harris will fly back to Los Angeles today with an all-female U.S. Air Force crew — the first time an all-female crew has operated a C-33.
Upon landing, Harris will visit a local fire station and then distribute food to community members impacted by the wildfires.
