On Monday, President Trump signed an executive order that calls for reducing the number of recommended childhood vaccines.

History has shown how plagues from the past can roar back when trust in shots — or access to them — falters.

Revisit our March investigation:
How Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Vaccine Agenda Risks a Resurgence of Deadly Childhood Plagues
The health secretary is spreading doubts about vaccine safety and considering changes that could prompt manufacturers to flee the U.S. market. History has shown how plagues from the past can roar back...

The effective federal corporate income tax rate:

1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%

Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.

That is how we will pay for it.

Hey!
Important news:
You cannot get better at anything without fucking something up. Them's the rules.

And some of the very best things you'll ever do, you'll find entirely by accident while playing, or experimenting with something else.

Hell, that's how Inkling came to be.

70% of Americans don't want energy-guzzling AI data centers being built in their communities, including 63% of Republicans.

Trump's response?

"You can't fight it, you have to go with it."

Reminder that Trump owns millions of dollars worth of stock in Big Tech corporations pushing data centers.

Pay attention to who *doesn't* join this action, and primary them.

Hound them utterly. Public servants serve at *our pleasure* - they begged us for their jobs (that's what we call "Campaigning" - it's begging), and if they don't do what we elected them to do, *replace them with better people*.
People Keep Dying in ICE Custody. 13 Democrats Back a Bill to Abolish the Agency.

Jesús Manuel Arenas-Silva's sister says his family begged ICE to let him takes his meds to detention. He died on July 13.

Meanwhile, ICE is on a killing spree. Which Dems will cross the Rubicon and say, abolish ICE?

Joseph Schwartz, owner of a nursing home empire, served just three months of his sentence before Trump pardoned him for a $39 million fraud scheme.

Meanwhile, families who won multimillion-dollar wrongful death suits against him haven’t collected a cent.

Someone I loved died of mesothelioma from asbestos exposure. Silica exposure has similar effects.

If you won't avoid Starbucks, at least don't order blended drinks.
I've heard first hand that it's confirmed baristas are having breathing issues and headaches from being exposed to this new Starbucks blending powder. there are no news articles but this powder has silica in it and becomes airborne when used for drinks. Baristas aren't allowed to mask on shift.

When the Pentagon announced a $620 million loan last year to a startup linked to Donald Trump Jr., defense officials and the company tried to tamp down suspicions of cronyism.

We found that the request came directly from the White House.
