It is not a "deadly measles outbreak". One child died for lack of proper treatment. That's why none of the pearl-clutchers reporting on it ever mention that fact—because then they couldn't weaponize it. It's also not a national issue. DHHS is handling it just fine.

I gather all the liberal migrants from X aren't aware that most of those minerals Donald extorted from Ukraine are in the eastern region that joined the Russian Federation 3 years ago. IOW, to collect, Donald has to get Putin to dump support for that region and give it back to Ukraine. Good luck.

Workers should stop demanding higher wages and start taking over the business when the corporation that runs it shuts it down rather than negotiate with a union. Unions have been selling out to the bosses for decades, telling members a slice of the pie is better than the whole pie.
