Vaccines have saved an estimated 154 million lives in the past 50 years (www.who.int/news/item/24...)

But RFK Jr says, falsely, that the HPV vaccine increases the risk of cervical cancer & Covid vaccine increases the risk of Covid & warns of a vaccine-linked Holocaust—these are kooky anti-vaxx lies

TRUMP: If you look at Somalia, they are taking over Minnesota.

REPORTER: What do the Somalians have to do with this Afghan guy who shot the National Guard members?

TRUMP: Ah, nothing. But Somalians have caused a lot of trouble. They're ripping us off.

Gov Walz is saying what we’ve been saying. If the president is this erratic, then the public deserves to know what is going on. Four simple words: show the MRI results.

If Trump is fine, prove it. If he isn’t, step aside.

Q: Officials say the suspect in the DC shooting was vetted & it came up clean

TRUMP: He went cuckoo. He went nuts. There was no vetting

Q: Actually, your DOJ IG says there was thorough vetting of Afghans. So why blame Biden?

TRUMP: You're just asking questions because you're a stupid person

Reuters has done some really great investigative reporting on the impacts of Trump's retribution campaigns
Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.

Holy shit! Trump has no decency or compassion.

A reporter asked if he planned to attend the funeral of Sarah Beckstrom, the National Guard member who just died.

Instead of offering condolences, he said he would “consider it” and pivoted to bragging about his margin of victory in West Virginia.

As the Trump administration commits countless acts of political corruption, the ranking Dem on the House Oversight Committee, Robert Garcia, is taking his show on the road—and collaborating with LA officials in the most wide-ranging examination of the White House's misdeeds to date. trib.al/9Oq502h

John Yang: The president announced he was sending more National Guard troops to the nation's capital. Is that a solution?

@juliettekayyem.bsky.social: "It's really not. It's a sort of fallacy to think more is better, especially when it comes to deployments anywhere by the military."
