It’s outrageous that Sec. Kennedy is trying to fire the CDC Director — after only a few weeks on the job — for her commitment to public health & vaccines.
The Sen. HELP Committee must hold a hearing with Kennedy & the CDC Director as soon as possible.
Vaccines save lives. Period.

This story was compassionate, well written, thoroughly researched, and free of dogma, the best thing I’ve read in a newspaper in some time.
A Columbia medical student protested the genocide in Gaza. A Project Esther-style smear campaign followed her 2,900 miles to California.

Why can’t America produce charismatic cult leaders anymore? Trump comes across as a used car salesman, and Musk is a schlub.
But I guess some people wanted that schlub to see their internal organs.

There has been no increase in the economic diversity of elite private and public colleges in the United States over the last century.
However, these colleges have become more racially and geographically diverse.

Dems already did this on immigration and got painted as open border communist globalists anyway. This simply does not work. Dems need to have a back bone and actually argue from their differences with conservatives rather than bending over and adopting conservative lite positions because of polls.
growing chorus of “throw trans people to the wolves” from high profile libs is not shocking but it is certainly nerve-wracking lol
