This is so, yes, criminal. I am often asked for my medical thoughts. My first answer is always "get the best doctor you can." This is national scale malpractice and is lethal.

I vigorously agree with my friend & colleague David Hart. American science & tech did all of the heavy lifting to make EVs possible. To let the Chinese now eat our lunch by not even showing up at the buffet is ludicrous.
Enjoying this report by David Hart who argues that the smarter strategy for the US is to compete with China in the EV space. Electric vehicles are a superior technology & will eventually displace ICE vehicles. Abandoning the contest will leave the US behind. www.cfr.org/report/compe...
Compete, Don’t Retreat
The primary U.S. response to China’s first-mover advantages in emerging auto technologies has been protection. A smarter strategy would seek to compete by supporting producers and collaborating with …

This Christmas Eve, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.

After buying it for $18.8 billion, Walgreens' new private equity owner has eliminated paid holidays for all hourly workers on Christmas and New Year's.

Last year, Walgreens had a CEO-to-Worker pay gap of 410 to 1.

Corporate greed that would make even Scrooge blush.

It says a lot about our country that the FBI had no interest in interviewing Brett Kavanaugh but wants to talk to Mark Kelly.

I swore an oath to the Constitution in 1986. I've upheld it through 25 years of service and every day since I retired.

If Trump's trying to intimidate me, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to our country to be silenced by bullies who care more about power than the Constitution.

Juan López, a tireless leader in Honduras & a well-known environmental defender, was assassinated one year ago today for defending natural resources & opposing corruption in his homeland.

This week, I joined my colleagues in calling on Secretary of State Marco Rubio to pursue justice in the case.

If listing cases of 2025 US political violence, one would include the Charlie Kirk killing, the Melissa Horman killing (MN state legislator), and the CDC shooting.
The president omitting Horman and CDC, but reaching back 8 years for a non-deadly shooting to cite, conveys approval of those shootings.

As a sexual abuse survivor, I need to talk about my anger.

I'm so angry about the government not stopping Epstein when they had the opportunity, causing hundreds more girls to fall prey to him because of inaction. I'm enraged about the cover up. And I'm furious about lack of care for young girls.

Listening to the stories of the brave women who suffered Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse was devastating. Their courage demands action and full transparency.

The time for justice is NOW.

Kressly: I expect in the next couple of weeks, this is going to get worse. You’re going to hear from the same administrative people who have gutted the expertise needed to promote child health — pushing false narratives like, “we need to look at the link between vaccines and autism.” That is a lie.

Grandparents must lead on vaccines. We remember the dangers of vaccine preventable diseases. Our message- it is crucial that every child be vaccinated following the AAP childhood immunization schedule.
