3 infant #pertussis deaths this year in Kentucky. "Of the three infant deaths reported over the past 12 months, all three were not vaccinated, nor were their mothers."

We first tested maternal vaccination for whooping cough over 80 years ago. It's safe & effective & might have saved these babies.

THIS sounds insane..but getting rid of Roe versus Wade, destroying the White House to build a ballroom sounded insane. A private Army he's forming, sounded insane. Presidential immunity sounded insane..

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

NEWS: Annie Farmer, an Epstein survivor who testified against Ghislaine Maxwell, just revealed on CNN that she wrote a letter with her concerns to Deputy AG Blanche — and received no response.

She says neither she nor other survivors have heard a word from the DOJ.

If Joe Biden posted something like this Hannity would be roused from his sleep to anchor special coverage. But Trump posts apeshit conspiracy theories and the mainstream press yawns. His craziness has been completely normalized.

By slashing teams that gather critical data, the Trump administration has left the federal government with no way of understanding if policies are working — and created a black hole of information whose consequences could ripple out for decades: propub.li/3RZzqHP

I want to write a report fully detailing the conditions in CECOT via curatorial journalism—there is so much people don't know—but I'll tell you honestly that writing my last three reports on this subject has broken my spirit.

As someone who knows how to read, I can tell you with certainty the Supreme Court did not say that.
 
The White House admitted it was an "administrative error" to deport Abrego Garcia and the Supreme Court called on the government to facilitate his return.

8/ This is a watershed moment, as Trump thumbs his nose at a Supreme Court ruling, gaslighting the public by pretending his won 9-0 when he lost 9-0.

If we normalize this, there's no end. He can lock up or remove anyone. We will no longer exist in a democracy.

So worth reading. Thank you Governor Pritzker!
The root that tears apart your foundation begins as a seed of distrust, hate, and blame.

The seed that grew into a dictatorship in Europe didn’t arrive overnight.

It started with everyday Germans mad about inflation and looking for someone to blame.
