This exchange between Trump and Jerome Powell is like a TV sitcom.
Trump quotes a new figure for the renovations at the Fed. Powell shakes his head. Trump shows him the paper and says "it just came out." Powell explains that Trump added an irrelevant building... that was built five years ago.

So the White House story is now:
“We didn’t mean to threaten Harvard, because we didn’t mean to send the threatening letter we sent, but when Harvard rejected the threats we made but didn’t mean to make, we decided to threaten them twice more.”
The country is now run by thugs and idiots.

Measles requires 95% vaccination rates for herd immunity.
It has a 16.2% case fatality rate for unvaccinated children under 5 years and 24% for children under 9 months (who are unable to be vaccinated).
30% of the survivors experience severe complications like blindness, deafness, or encephalitis.

These are the vaccination rates of kindergartners by state. It takes 95% coverage of MMR vaccine to prevent measles outbreaks & most states are not achieving it. I fear that under the new administration rates will drop even further and we will start to see preventable illness, disability, and death

REPORTER: Do you view Ukraine as an equal member of this peace process?

Neue IW-Studie zeigt, dass Wähler*innen der AfD Inflation stärker wahrnehmen. Das deckt sich mit unserem Befund aus dem @wsiinstitut.bsky.social-Erwerbspersonenpanel, dass sich AfD-Wähler*innen stärker von Krisen bedroht fühlen und stärker durch sie verunsichert sind.

Inflation: Für AfD-Wähler fühlt sich alles viel teurer an
Wie stark Menschen Inflation wahrnehmen, hängt auch mit ihrer Wahlabsicht zusammen, zeigen neue Daten. Die gefühlte Teuerung ist am stärksten an den politischen Rändern.
