The move was “not normal at all,” one agency staff member said.

The CDC Buried a Measles Forecast That Stressed the Need for Vaccinations
The move — along with the CDC’s explanation — is a sign that the nation’s top public health agency may be falling in line under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a longtime critic of vaccines.

Where did Hegseth get the info he dropped into the Signal chat? Did he copy/paste it from another chat?

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

Speaker Johnson, the folks speaking out at GOP town halls across the country aren’t paid protesters.

Global whiplash. It’s good if things can be patched up for a while, to buy more time. But, US is no longer a reliable ally, and UK/Europe must still go hard and fast on creating more autonomy.
