The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

Whenever you hear "waste, fraud, and abuse" ask for reciepts. In the unlikely event they send them, look at them. They are your medicaid, social security, and small business loans.

After DOGE took over USAID, agency emails started automatically including a “sensitive but unclassified” warning. This indiscriminate application will create an untold number of needless pseudo-secrets and make it harder to get information released through FOIA.

We wrote about the 21 USDS staffers who are resigning, and it appears this is the response from the Trump admin. It begs the questions: If these workers were fully remote, were they not just expressing themselves in their own homes? What happened to the right to free expression?

This hits hard… “Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.” You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.

Anyone want to bet that no one looks at the email responses that Musk asked for ? It requires too much manpower and organization. Even w/AI He will hold them in the event he has an interaction with someone. If so, he can look up their response or lack of, and use it as cause for action.

Texas becomes the latest State to propose a mask ban. These are ugly laws. They’re discriminatory & push disabled people further out of society. They increase the likelihood of police harassment. They paint maskers as “bad”. There’s an excellent document with scripts for how to call & fight back!
