Hepatitis B vaccination has been recommended for all newborns since 1991. It led to a 99% reduction in pediatric infections and liver diseases caused by the virus have dropped dramatically.
This is a terrible decision. Babies could develop liver infection or die as a result.

This is just racism, and Trump's racist language is being coupled with racist policy to block people including many vetted under this administration who pursued legal status and citizenship the way they were supposed to, just because they aren't white. It's awful and immoral.

Trump used drugs as pretext for illegal killings in the Caribbean, and as pretext for illegal, inflation-spiking tariffs.
But he just pardoned a man who "flooded America with cocaine" and boasted that he'd “stuff the drugs up the gringos’ noses.”
Trump's corruption is endless.
