It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.
It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.
And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

DEI isn't why you didn't get a job. THERE ARE NO JOBS. YOU DIDN'T GET A JOB BECAUSE THERE ARE NO JOBS. If all the older professors retired? You still wouldn't get a job! Not in the humanities! Because they'll replace at best half of those lines! There will still be no jobs! None!

When that time comes, Illinois will have the testimony and records needed to pursue justice to its fullest extent.

Your use of "progressive soldier" is interesting. When *other* folks are monomanically factional in their behavior and efforts you immediately recognize it as a sign of intellectual dishonesty, that they're just reasoning backwards from what their factional priors. This might apply more broadly!

I think about this the way that punt coverage works in football: you don't actually want everyone making a directly line to the ball, you actually want different players occupying different lanes because *the punt returner is going to move!* and you want to have broad coverage of the field.
Sometimes there are trade offs, but this zero-sum fixation is a poor and inaccurate model of public opinion. Lots of people are doing lots of different things over huge amounts of time. The idea that *at the margin* Van Hollen's activities with KAG *hurt* senate dems chances seems obviously wrong.

NB: When I, a professor of law, profess that an act is unlawful, I am not doing it to inform the lawbreaker, but rather to inform you, the reader.
So the question “what, like you think he cares?” is inapposite. The question is whether *you* care. I think you should, which is why I bother.

What's most clear from this speech/order is that Hegseth knows very little about the chaplain corps -- its history, its purpose, and its operations are not what he imagines them to be.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth this week ordered sweeping changes to the U.S. military's chaplain corps, with a plan to simplify a system that he said has become too focused on "new age" concepts.
