The United States of America is the only major country on earth that does not guarantee health care as a human right.

The result: We rank dead last among wealthy nations in life expectancy.

We must end that international embarrassment.

Yes. We need Medicare for All.

The Agriculture Department has axed two programs that gave schools and food banks money to buy food from nearby farms and ranchers. Roughly $660 million that schools and child care facilities were counting on to purchase food has been canceled.

This will hurt both kids and small, local farmers.

For the first time in 10 years, a child has died from measles in the United States.

Vaccines prevent measles.

Americans need to hear our top health officials say clearly: every child in America should get vaccinated against this terrible disease.

Sometimes you see something that makes you realize that another person's mind is just always going to be a locked door to you, a total mystery. Impenetrable. For me that was Gavin Newsom making his debut podcast episode a talk with Charlie Kirk

On 6 June 1944, while Americans were fighting at Omaha Beach, Canadians were fighting at Juno Beach. Our brothers, who fought and died by our side – who helped us defeat Fascism, are not our enemy. They are our true friends. Canadians are our brothers and sisters and I stand with them 100%.

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there.

The show must go on.

The SEC has ruled that meme coins aren’t securities since they “typically have limited or no use or functionality” and are “more akin to collectibles.”

These means getting rug pulled on a memecoin isn’t securities fraud. It’s more like overpaying for Beanie Babies.
SEC says most meme coins are not securities
The Securities and Exchange Commission issued guidance Thursday evening saying it does not deem most meme coins securities under U.S. federal law.
