When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Please get your pre-teens the HPV vaccine - while you still can. Only 60% of our kids in the US are up to date on this vaccine that prevents cancer, and with #TeamCancer leader RFK in charge, that percentage is going to fall. www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...
The Future of the HPV Vaccine Is Up in the Air
One of the most effective vaccines available was going to become more accessible—until RFK Jr. dismissed the CDC’s advisory committee.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

this tariff stuff has been a ride, but it also feels like a distraction from the fact that any federal law enforcement agency that can get anyone -- u.s. citizen or no -- into a foreign jail can now disappear that person with zero due process

Opinion | Trump’s Gulag Archipelago
Trump is seeking to establish a truly chilling proposition: that no one can stop his administration from imprisoning anyone it wants, anywhere in the world.

Turns out having a Fox News personality run the Department of Defense wasn’t a great idea?
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth disclosed war plans in a group chat that included the editor in chief of The Atlantic two hours before U.S. troops launched attacks against the Houthi militia in Yemen, the White House said. It was an extraordinary breach of U.S. national security intelligence.

The conversation among the defense secretary and other national security officials on a commercial messaging app mistakenly included the editor in chief of The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg.

Musk claims Social Security is a "gigantic magnet to attract illegal immigrants."
In fact, immigrants here illegally do not collect Social Security. But they pay $25.7 billion a year into it, a recent study found, so these undocumented workers are actually subsidizing Americans.

I know this is going to sound naive or earnest, but I genuinely find myself shocked by how little people seem to be upset by the levels of corruption we're seeing. Is that the median voter assumes everyone is corrupt already? Or isn't actually getting stories about the corruption?

President Trump's inaugural address was a misleading assessment of the U.S. It has a growing economy, falling inflation, slowing illegal immigration, a record-breaking stock market, the lowest levels of violent crime in years and a military that has limited engagement in conflicts around the world.
