1/ Yesterday, #RFKJr. —the current Secretary of Health and Human Services—testified before Congress. When asked if he'd vaccinate his child against measles (in the midst of one of the worst outbreaks in recent history), he said: “I don't think people should be taking medical advice from me.”

Mike Johnson on Elon Musk: "We meet late into the night in his office and we've looked at that. What he's finding with his algorithms crawling through the data of Social Security system is enormous amounts of fraud, waste, and abuse."
