On Tues, it couldn't release Sept job openings, hires, layoffs and firings data.
This morning, it couldn't release 2025Q3 business Productivity and Costs data.

The real harm to #LongCovid patients isn’t coming from most doctors or scientists; it’s coming from activists spreading false claims about COVID-19, twisting science, and vilifying experts. Misrepresentation doesn’t help patients; it isolates them from real care.

If you're really worried about the population falling, giving immigrants a path to citizenship is an obvious and easy solution.

RFK Jr: "When my uncle was president, the fertility rate in this country was 3.5%. Today it is 1.6%. The replacement rate -- in other words the amount of fertility you need to keep your population even -- is 2.1%. We are below replacement. That is a national security threat to our country."

Vaccines work and do not cause autism. I will die on this hill.
These two boys had been exposed to the same smallpox source. The boy without a rash had been vaccinated, the one covered in rash hadn't been vaccinated.
