Not training them can cause “cognitive” issues in dogs.

Dogs are getting vaccinated less and rabies rates are rising, in part because 37% of Americans think vaccines will give their dogs... pawtism. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

Worries about vaccination rates in dogs As rabies seems to be spreading more in wildlife, veterinarians are especially worried about vaccine hesitancy spreading among pet owners, a dangerous trend that could lead to more dogs — and their owners — becoming infected. A 2023 study published in the journal Vaccine found in a nationally representative sample of Americans that nearly 40% believed canine vaccines were unsafe and 37% believed that vaccines could lead their dogs to develop cognitive issues, such as autism.

Deaths from a disease with a nearly 100% effective vaccine (if given before symptom onset) are at highest level in years? Shocked. Just shocked. Disinformation kills. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yayyyyyyyy!!!! A federal judge has blocked the transfer of any additional immigrant detainees to a detention site in the Florida Everglades and ordered much of the facility to be torn down.

His ravings about crime in DC sound like the things he said about the Central Park Five. He was way off base then and now.

At an event commemorating the 200th birthday of the United States, a sitting Supreme Court Justice was invited to celebrate "the memory of the Founders and the document they drafted in Philadelphia." Justice Thurgood Marshall declined

 I cannot accept this invitation, for I do not believe that the mean- ing of the Constitution was forever

They want a country (or a world) filled with healthy, rich, straight, white people who will never be a drag on the government, like Romney’s 47%.

We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.

I was briefed on the intelligence last week. Iran posed no imminent threat of attack to the United States. Iran was not close to building a deliverable nuclear weapon. The negotiations Israel scuttled with their strikes held the potential for success.

Is calling their opposition the Democrat party or the Democrat senator rather than Democratic a Republican talking point? I’ve heard this a few times recently, including by Ted Cruz during a hearing today.

The Books section of EW was the first thing I read when the issue arrived. There were some obvious picks of course, but I remember a short rave review of “Confederates in the Attic” by the not terribly well-known (at least to me) Tony Horwitz. The book opened up a new world of quirky non-fiction.

I will block any arms sale to a nation that is doing direct personal business with Trump. We should have a full Senate debate and vote. UAE's investment in Trump crypto and Qatar's gifting of a plane is nuclear grade graft. An unacceptable corruption of our foreign policy.
