I remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs.
We lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives.
Now, two MORE unvaccinated people have died from measles.
What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

In Delaney Hall, detainees report unsafe drinking water and retaliatory abuse for speaking up.

I'm recalling the foreign policy class I took in college. The professor said the most likely starting point for the next world war would be in the Middle East. And here we are. This is why you don't elect a plumb idiot to be president of the United States, folks.

Social media has worsened our collective science literacy skills.
For example, there are urine therapy groups on Facebook.
Similar alternative medicine groups provide a sense of community, but at the cost of promoting pseudoscientific beliefs that compromise health.

At a Senate oversight hearing Tuesday, Kash Patel declared that “what’s most important is [to] not have a weaponized FBI, and I will endeavor every single day to make sure we have no one there that is doing that.” Hmm.
Kash Patel again denies firing Iran experts before Iran war
Patel insisted to a Senate committee that FBI staff fired from an Iran counterintelligence unit were technically "not experts."
