A young child in Suffolk County, NY — where my family and I live — has tested positive for measles. The child is under the age of 5 and is unvaccinated, according to the Suffolk County Department of Health Services.

Americans continue to view Donald Trump as the star of a reality television show. They can’t wait to see what’s going to happen in the next episode, while at the same time they are in denial that what is happening is happening to them. This has gone from a democracy and is headed towards a tragedy.

Americans: We’d like to afford basic necessities, keep vital programs, and not lose our retirement savings. Trump: Best I can do is a car commercial for the richest man on Earth.

Republicans cannot reach their budget goal of slashing at least $1.5tn in spending over the next decade to fund Donald Trump’s tax cuts and immigration crackdown without cutting healthcare relied upon by tens of millions of Americans The Guardian Slash Social Security Medicare How did we get here:

Here's the full email about the classified and personnel records destruction, which just hit the public record in labor groups' litigation against the Trump admin. The groups say: "Defendants are, as this motion is being filed, destroying documents with potential pertinence to this litigation."

A lot can happen in five months. 🇺🇸

They told us who they are and they told us what they were going to do and they knew we would not stand up to them and so they did. And so they did.

Privatize it or let charity handle it. Thats the whole plan right there

DOCUMENT DESTRUCTION: My reporter Brett Murphy obtained a remarkable directive to folks at USAID: Empty the safes with the classified and personnel records and then, "Shred as many documents first, and reserve the burn bags for when the shredder becomes unavailable or needs a break."

so they say, the difference is my hypocrisy is good hypocrisy Representative Tim Burchett look 👀

He loves to lie.

@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @schumer.senate.gov @kenmartin.bsky.social Trump/Musk Attacks on Social Security A ready-made talking point for Democrats. “Most of the federal spending is entitlements,” Musk told the Fox Business Network. “That’s the big one to eliminate” apnews.com/article/elon...

When people think you’re stupid, they treat you like you’re stupid, and Republicans think the American people are stupid. “grab the money”

Rachel Maddow: "If Starlink runs American airspace, that gives Elon Musk the ability to shut down airspace at will, because he says it's his system so he can do what he wants. Seem like a good idea?" The show opened with a fiery segment called Nosedive. 23 minutes: brittain.tech/maddow310.mp4

Sometimes just one person is enough.

Has Elon Musk ever said the pledge of allegiance? I wonder?

Elon Musk called Senator Mark Kelly a coward after he visited Ukraine. Kelly: "It's a free country. But I've launched into orbit 4 times, I flew 39 combat missions in Desert Storm, and I held my wife's hand in the hospital after she was shot in the head.... I don't really care what he thinks of me."

I’m sure every Republican in Congress who was a military veteran will have the courage and integrity to call out Elon Musk for calling Mark Kelly a traitor because that’s how they roll.

I hear TSLA is having a fire sale. 🔥 Swastikars on fire is not news or surprising, just sayin'

This isn’t about “small government.” It’s about making life harder for working-class Americans. MAGA Senator John Kennedy literally told Americans, “Get used to it.” They want to take away your kid’s education, your public school funding, your protections open.substack.com/pub/meidasto... #resist
