The insider scoop on heavy lift is alarming. Killing it is completely defensible. Military should eliminate any dependence on starlink or spacex

Yeah don’t tell the Vietnam vets they were not in a real war. But war has changed completely in three years due to drones so I hope our army and navy and NATO can keep up.

That’s some weird babbling about Leonard Leo. Where does he think that immunity came from?

Would rather see Kamala in this meme, that’s the choice Americans actually flubbed.

FDA has never rubber stamped vaccines in any context. They (used to) know best regarding disease risk vs vaccine risk. Vaccines have worked so well that people way underestimate disease risk. Vaccine misinformation coming from cdc/FDA is horrifying.

Why do people have the idea that FDA has ever done ā€˜blind approvals’ of vaccines? For decades flu vaccines have included annual updates so they will actually work on the currently circulating strains, now Covid is the same. Requiring a full clinical trial for each update = no covid #vaccines

I’m definitely non-expert. Thanks for highlighting the critical point, that counseling is often not available when needed. Pediatric psych problems can be brutal for the individuals and families, we need more resources and research.

Psychotherapy is critical and should be available and insured. But there are also millions of folks who are functional only because meds control their symptoms.

Rfk was particularly obsessed with mercury pollution as an issue for public health especially in fish- one of the few things he’s right about. Where is he on this one?

With a $27T economy there’s plenty of ability to evolve to a balanced budget that meets the citizens’ needs, but no political will to confront oligarchs. It will only get harder with exploding deficits and interest rates climbing.

Well they did have trump and most R’s in congress promising they would never cut Medicare or Medicaid. Got fooled for the 30,000th time.
