Hey, get that flu shot. Knowing folks who are catching this current flu and it's kicking them in the teeth -- the shot will, worst case scenario, prevent it from taking you to the hospital or the morgue. It might knock it out quicker for you or even help you duck catching it. (Mask up, too.)
Yes, you can still get a flu shot. Tips for staying healthy with cases on the rise.

This outcome out of Rensselaer County, New York highlights how re-checking by hand can help bolster confidence in election results and is well worth the effort to get right before certification:

The elimination of USAID was an unforgivable moral atrocity that should haunt Trump, Elon Musk and Marco Rubio for the rest of their days and beyond

Important reminder that programs like SNAP benefits only came to exist because their was a lack or need not being met in the communities. This just shows you how the affordability crisis has continued to shape our politics. We, as a country, have to stop half measures and tackle income inequality!

While many Americans were still asleep, Republicans in the House of Representatives passed Trump’s huge, horrible mega-bill.
It might be the worst, most damaging piece of legislation I’ve seen in my nearly 60 years in politics.

Remember these names 👇
Last night, 16 Senate Democrats voted with Republicans to advance a crypto-friendly bill that will enable Trump’s corruption.
Instead of standing up to Trump, these 16 Democrats decided they’d rather do a big favor for the crypto industry and legitimize an avenue for Trump to collect bribes.
