something you have to understand about Trump & his weird comments about the economy is that the dude hasn't paid for anything like a normal person in decades - never pumps gas, never buys groceries - so he's completely & utterly out of touch with what life is like for most of us

We are dealing with such corruption in every aspect of our government, I don't know how we undo the damage.

we all got cowed into avoiding "virtue signaling" as if the public affirmation of socially agreed upon ethical principles was somehow cringey instead of a significant part of what a "society" even is. now all there's left is vice signaling, and it's reshaping society.

Kudlow is just lying to his viewers: "Unemployment is at rock bottom. These are real facts. I'm not making this stuff up. Unemployment claims are as low as they're ever going to get."

gorsuch in particular is just monstrously arrogant. the portrait of a fart sniffer.
It is really, really hard to get your head around the raw hubris of the majority. They really will be destabilizing the operating structure of the entire U.S. government. Why? Because they believe they have a better idea about how the past century should've been done.

Trump says Lisa Cook is unfit to be a Fed governor because she claimed two different properties as her primary residence on her mortgage applications. (Cook denies this.)

Trump did the exact same thing on mortgage applications submitted a mere 7 weeks apart.

I agree that this is an important guiding insight...and 90% of Americans don't know this.

What is the role of journalism if not to hammer this point home until people understand d it?

HOPE WALZ: “What world are we f*cking living in? I draw the line at Gus. You people are f*cking disgraceful.”

She says MAGA loyalists are now driving by their home and yelling “R*tard!” at her family and her special needs brother after Trump called GovTimWalz the R word.

don't worry, john roberts says this is a legitimate exercise of presidential power and if we did anything to curb it, we would be robbing the executive of the energy he needs to do his job
Trump rages that Henry Cuellar didn’t pay him back for a pardon by switching parties, blasting Cuellar for a “lack of LOYALTY.”

In other words, Trump admits he was trying to use his pardon power to buy Republicans a House seat.

Public health recommendations are based on the risks of the population, not the individual.
Why give a Hepatitis B vaccine at birth?

-Hep B is super contagious!
-Many people with Hep B don’t know they’re infected.
-It reduces the rate of pediatric Hep B by 99%.

It's safe, effective & it works!

I still can’t believe the president posted a video of himself dumping shit on his countrymen and it just goes into the, “Well, that happened” file. Maybe because there’s no room left in the “President is insane” file.

"This whole notion that we are trapped into wars by the commitments we make to our allies—I think the opposite of that is true. We have not had to fight for any treaty ally. It is the reliability of the commitment that is the source of stability."

I’d rather not keep making similar posts about pertussis, varicella, Meningococcemia, pneumococcus, HiB, etc. But I can and I will if ACIP continues to choose anarchy.

Same for me with Haemophilus influenzae. As a resident I’d perform 2-3 spinal taps a week for it. The neurological devastation from H flu meningitis was horrible. Haven’t seen a case since the vaccine was introduced.
I took care of numerous kids with fulminant hepatitis B in the 90s before the switch to getting the first vaccine at birth. I don’t recall having one since. I do not miss caring for that disease.
