Trump has wiped out injury and violence prevention at the CDC.
Surveillance systems and programs to protect kids from things like firearm injuries and drowning...just gone.
Tariffs and the price of eggs don't mean a damn thing if we can't even keep our kids safe.

People always inform me about how much they love the Rejection Tracker on my website (www.ianasilver.com). My updated rejection rate is 1.58 rejections per-published article!
This stat is misleading though, because I do have approximately 8 "dead" papers that have 1 to almost 7 rejections.
