#Measles deaths in the US have been ultra low for years. But with 3 deaths so far in 2025, it appears the country may be on a different trajectory — unless vaccination promotion is amped up and vaccination uptake increases. www.statnews.com/2025/04/06/m...

Ohio: Sen. Bernie Moreno is antisemitic & clueless. He recently said this: "Republicans are independently minded. Democrats are monolithic sheep that follow the Fuhrer Schumer’s orders." Calling the highest ranking Jewish Senator ever, who lost family in the Holocaust, "fuhrer"? Antisemitic.

#Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 Car prices will go up $6,000 (per abc news) because of Trump’s tariffs! And, he lied to our face. I watched his press conference. He said egg prices were 50 cents and gas below $3 a gallon. I think he meant eggs were 50 cents for one and gas just went over $3 a gal.

Why would a leader tank his own country's economy? It's a key part of the aspiring autocrat's playbook. Tariffs & chaos mean more power & control for Trump. But America has no king. The Republican-led Congress can stop this at any time. Let your reps hear from you. 5calls.org/issue/trump-...

Lisa Murkowski just became the only GOP senator to vote to defund DOGE. She knows Musk might bankroll a primary against her. Her response? “This is the United States of America. Political retribution should not be something that even exists.” That’s courage.
