This is the worst case scenario that everybody was worried about
It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.

It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.

And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

When they wanted to release the files early this year, they paid $1M in overtime and put 1000 people on it - until they realized what was in the files. Now they’re slow walking the release.

Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.

C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

Impeach him the second you get a majority, imo. Let this guy lay it all out.
BREAKING on MS NOW:

Jack Smith, in his opening statement to House Judiciary, says:

"Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power."

Sooo... those Epstein files...?

This is absolutely sick - only a raving narcissist would make this awful loss somehow about him.
Trump just put this unhinged and sick post about Rob Reiner and his wife Michele Singer Reiner up, and most of MAGA is already telling him to take it down.

Even they have limits, despite being trapped in the cult.

Couple of things here:

1. Trump says he took another cognitive test recently

2. In front of "large numbers of doctors and experts"

3. He called the examinations "long...and very boring"

4. If you're given 3 cognitive exams in one year by panels of doctors, something is VERY wrong with you

Layoffs have hit over 1.1M so far this year — the most since the pandemic.

Yet corporate profits continue to hit record highs, with corporations increasingly spending those earnings on stock buybacks to enrich execs and shareholders.

This is what a rigged economy looks like.

The Epstein coverup will go down as one of the greatest scandals and miscarriages of justice in U.S. history.

Everyone involved with Epstein’s victims or with the coverup needs to be prosecuted and go down in shame.

It does not matter if they are GOP or Dems!

Repost if you agree.

Rep. Jim Himes after being briefed by Adm. Bradley:

"What I saw in that room was one of the most troubling things I've seen in my time in public service. You have two individuals in clear distress without any means of locomotion, with a destroyed vessel, who are killed by the United States."

This is your game day reminder that the Wolves signed one of the Hockey Canada Five with absolutely no acknowledgement of the underlying issues, and that the parent organization hasn't discussed the signing or their role in it.
If you're at Lenovo tonight, I implore you to act. #CarolinaCulture
SA Warning:

The whole thing stinks from the top down.

For those not in the know, the Hurricanes org (including their affiliation with the #ChicagoWolves) have now:

1) Attempted to sign 2 of the 5 players accused of sexual assault
2) Actually signed 1 of the 5
Absolutely fucking trash. This is the Canes’ AHL affiliate for those who thought the work was done after the initial non signing. #CarolinaCulture

ILL (Inter library loan) is such an important piece of what libraries can do for you. I borrow books from all of MA all the time and they arrive at my local library within a few days usually. One of the best things that libraries offer that is kind of a hidden service.
Don’t forget if the Institute of Museum and Library Services doesn’t get funded next year, many public libraries won’t be able to fund ILL anymore because IMLS money helps pay postage/transportation costs. Write your legislators to support IMLS funding, please!

Gen Z is spending more on essentials than previous generations, yet their wages aren't keeping up.

It's no wonder they aren't "spending like retailers need them to."

When 70% of the economy depends on consumer spending, people need money to spend. It's as simple as that.

I don't care what his doctor says - this is not a well man.
Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.
