My health insurance won't pay for a Cologuard test, but they'll pay for a colonoscopy. That makes a lot of sense.

Terrifying News: A hepatitis C outbreak strikes Florida, and the U.S. government shuts down the only CDC lab capable of testing the samples. This isn’t a mistake it’s political negligence putting lives at risk. We need leaders who act now and prioritize health. We need accountability and answers.

China just announced 84% tariffs on the US. There is no winner in a global trade war. This isn’t a negotiation, it’s an economic pissing contest that is going to ruin the economies of several nations if people don’t get their shit together.

If these men had any sense of honor, they would already have resigned. The fact that they are all still in their jobs is just as damning as their terrifying and lawless incompetence.

Talk of firing or resigning is one thing. But if they were regular employees, they would face investigation & prosecution. No reason their principals, people who hold security clearances, shouldn’t. Or is the legacy of the “but her emails” guy going to be nat’l security no longer matters?

If people getting caught up in an illegal, haphazard dragnet and getting shipped to a hellish nightmare prison in El Salvador while being used for ghoulish propaganda doesn't move you to use some of your political capital or power, you don't deserve to hold your office or an ounce of trust.

Open letter from a pediatrician to Senator BillCassidy: You promised to supervise HHS leadership. You promised to prevent the US from devolving into an anti-vaccine, disease ridden dystopia. You promised to protect children. I am begging you to please do your job.
