Can the states dictate who should get the booster shots? It's ridiculous.
Only with explaining math problems. School is very strict when it comes to AI. Ironically, tech wants people to use AI more, it's even part of interviews.
I agree with Dr. Faust. Either RFK Jr needs to resign or be removed. He is a danger to the health of all Americans.
To take an approved vaccine off the market, the FDA would have to revoke the manufacturersâ license. âVaccine law experts said they expect that vaccine manufacturers, physicians or patients groups would file legal challenges if the FDA tried to revoke COVID-19 vaccine licenses.â #pinks #proudblue
Bernie is right. Health care should be based on medical science. Iâm glad I found out I needed a measles vaccine this summer. And itâs right to provide shingles shots to seniors and vaccines for kids. Letâs focus on health care costs instead of upending the CDC. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/o...
American federalism goes to work. As RFK Jr. heads down the road of more measles, more COVID-19 and more flu, public health states must develop our own strategies to stay safe.
He's ridiculous
ATTN: it might be a good idea to freeze your credit with all three agencies now that Musk has all your info. I froze mine long ago and itâs pretty easy to unfreeze temporarily if you need to.
Rival studios on Sunday estimated that the Netflix film, "KPop Demon Hunters" led all films in the box office this weekend with $16-18 million in ticket sales.
Dodgers vs Padres, always a fun and exciting series to watch!
What does he even know about Revelations, and if he does know, why doesn't he change his ways...?!

Nice!!
Same, did you have a hard time picking up Python? I'm working on it now... I love Nextjs, with server/client components, so easy...
They're going to spike everyone's energy prices. Your energy prices are going up and it's Trump's fault. Plain as day.

Some of the LeetCode challenges follow a pattern after awhile... But I'm tired of array questions
They do seem to follow a pattern...
That's why I liked Madam Secretary!
What should be used then? Education is definitely not a strong suit, it seems
Yup, the layoffs are brutal
Now Republicans are trying something different: quietly weakening the law and hoping you wonât notice. We canât let them. Itâs up to all of us to vote for leaders in every election who will make our healthcare system better, not undermine it. Call your member of Congress and hold them accountable.
As of today, import taxes (aka tariffs) have hit their highest level since the Great Depression. Americans are now expected to pay an average of 18.3% more for imported products. Remember when Trump ran on lowering costs?
"So the tariff is paid in this country by the importer, is that right?" -- Eugene Robinson guides Scott Bessent into acknowledging that tariffs are in fact paid in the United States, not by foreign governments
The conservative Supreme Court justices are now preparing to take us back to a time when elected officials at all levels of government were white, and the rights of minorities were trampled.
RFK Jr has been a liar for as long as I can remember.
But I found the video of Orphesus singing, and loved it, so I might watch those episodes...
Nobody said that. Trump claims that tariffs have zero impact on prices that US consumers pay. We said that is false. Tariffs impact US importers, US consumers, US manufacturers, US exporters, and our trading partners overseas. Everyone loses in trade wars except tax collectors.
A massive regressive national sales tax imposed upon every American by a president with no constitutional authority to impose a national sales tax. The reason why the founders gave this power to Congress is because this would never pass any Congress- even this one.
F that.
NEW: Ford says Trumpâs tariffs will cost the company $2 billion this year. I thought the tariffs were designed to help American car companiesđ¤ www.cnbc.com/2025/07/30/f...
Seventeen experts ousted from a U.S. vaccine committee are expressing little faith in what the panel has become.
I bet he knows a ton of people who died without the vaccine.... because we all do.
Evergreen bad idea: Make elderly and disabled people argue with a robot over complex issues that decide whether you're going to be able to eat or pay rent.
This was announced as 150 million people across the country were under heat alerts. Fossil fuel interests spent nearly $100 million on Trump's re-election. Then the industry pumped $19 million into his inaugural fund. They're cashing in at the expense of the rest of us.

Watters: I remember you said you can't win a trade war, no one wins a trade war. We just did. What did we give up? Jessica: The right to have affordable European goods
Jessica: Before this deal, we essentially were paying 1% on imports with the EU. 15% is more than 1%. I wish Gasparino was sitting here to explain to Jesse how tariffs work because it is a tax on the consumer.
It should only be taught in private schools, for parents that want it. Teachers aren't pastors.
Trump will spend his weekend promoting a new golf course at his resort in Scotland â costing taxpayers an estimated $10 million. After this jaunt, he will have spent at least $52 million of taxpayer money on golf trips. If thatâs not fraud, waste, and abuse, I donât know what is.
This just makes him look more guilty.
PBS News is not going anywhere. We will continue our work without fear or favor, as we have for nearly five decades on the air. We are profoundly grateful to Viewers Like You for your loyalty and unwavering support.
Mockler: If tariffs worked, Trump wouldn't have to gaslight the American people about who paid the tariff in the first place.
Evidently, they should probably move to a different country if democracy is not for them
I was a personal trainer for almost a decade. Honest to God, the number one thing I would tell my weight loss clients was to eliminate soda and fast food from their diets. Here, the "MAHA" Secretary of HHS is cheering on soda... at a fast food restaurant. Snake oil salesman.
All of us - not just those on Medicaid or food stamps - will be directly paying for the costs of the billionaire tax breaks in the Trump budget package. Here's how.

âWASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSEâ The amount of people Republicans have hurt since Trump took office at home in đşđ¸ and across đ while hiding behind that phrase to enrich the rich and powerful is unthinkable, and should keep everyone with a conscience up and night.
WATCH: âSo who is the high tax state? If your only constituency is rich people, I understand.â Gov. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social points out the secret @govbilllee & Republicans donât want you to know â regressive taxation states like TN are NOT really low tax states for low income families.
Last night, Republicans passed Trumpâs extreme rescissions package that takes a chainsaw to NPR, PBS, & foreign assistance. Instead working together to lower costs, Republicans are pursuing reckless, partisan, & shameful legislation that makes America less safe & more expensive.
A sitting U.S. president threatening a company not to raise prices after imposing tariffs (taxes) on imports would have been a major scandal in the pre-Trump GOP. Now not a single Republican dares to speak out.
We don't need Trump or Bondi to sift through the stack and tell America what they think is âcredibleâ in the Epstein files. Thanks, but no thanksâweâll decide ourselves. The president should stop playing us for fools and suckers. Release everythingânow.
Totally S2!
AOC: âIt should be our mission right now to make sure that all people have health care!"
Warren: "Powell himself said he would've lowered interest rates in February but for the fact of Trump's tariff chaos. So that means that if you have credit cards, car loans, you've been paying more for 6 months now because of one human being -- Donald Trump, and the chaos he causes."

Donald Trump just canceled $80 MILLION DOLLARS in overdraft refunds that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau secured for the public. This is a part of a broader plan Trumpâs administration to shut down that agency. Itâs what protects us from predatory banks.
The United States has the highest rates of maternal and infant deaths among all wealthy countries. The Healthy Start Program improves maternal and infant health by supporting parents and their babies. We must continue the bipartisan tradition of protecting this program.
The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?
A Texas official said âthere wasnât a lot of timeâ to alert camps of the flood risk. But AccuWeatherâs chief meteorologist said warnings gave âplenty of time to evacuate people to higher ground.â âThe question is, Why did that not happen?â he said. By @jenniferberryhawes.bsky.social
This powerful message: âI did the research and found out I was wrong.â Iâm not going to say much more except please take the time to watch. Then send it around to family and friends, no matter their political persuasion. Part I

Padilla: "What if I was outside a Home Depot, because I like to do some work around the house, not dressed in a suit. Would I be a target of ICE enforcement under Tom Homan? Probably. And it is just wrong."
This has always been the GOP's strategy: 1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves. 2) Explode deficits 3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions. 4) Repeat.
The president pushing to change our very conception of citizenshipâwhich nearly all Americans were taught and grew up with as a givenâis an incredibly big deal. As @swin24.bsky.social writes, it's about way more than threatening one celebrity's citizenship over speech, including the attacks on 14A.
Important information. Pass this on, folks. Important phone number.
Hahaha!
The MAHA agenda is a death cult.
Military convoys raiding towns on domestic soil. Masked soldiers kidnapping people off the streets. Concentration camps holding people in inhumane conditions. This is Trumpâs America. But the people have a different vision, one built on love for our neighbors, and we will fight for it, together.
#PadresWin! FINAL: Padres 4, Phillies 2
Actually, everyone else would do it. He lives in his own head
GOOD TROUBLE: The Trump administrationâs threats to Public Radio could wipe out Tiny Desk concerts! Watch this message from @actualbenfolds.bsky.social and take action here: goacpr.org
Trump often says, "We've never seen anything like that before." Know what we've never seen before? His medical records. His grades...from any period of his life during his "education." I'll stop there. Why not? My guess? 1. He's not in good health...at all. 2. He's dumber than a box of sh*t.
Just a reminder that if Pam Bondi resigns, the next attorney general will *also* not release any list because the AG doesnât hold the power, Trump does. And itâs clearly *him* who wants this to go away. Donât delude yourself into thinking the buck stop with anyone other than Trump.
SENATOR @chrismurphyct.bsky.social : âTrump has said he wants to destroy FEMA⌠These are questions we need answered, for accountabilityâ but also so we can save as many lives as possible during the NEXT weather emergency.â #TexasFloods
If ICE is arresting "the worst of the worst," why are Donald Trump, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Pamela Jo Bondi, Jim Jordan, Kristi Noem, and Ted Cruz all still free?
I'm not sure why Mary divorces Henry, I hope it pushes the plot forward, otherwise, I'm going to be annoyed. #DowntonAbbey
New in PN: The worst chief justice of all time "American history has no shortage of legendarily bad chief justices and disgraceful decisions. But John Roberts has overseen the wholesale corruption and capture of the Supreme Court, and history should look back on his tenure with revulsion."
Hmmm???
Trump's Big Ugly Bill also... -Gives huge tax breaks to Big Oil and private jet owners -Limits Medicare drug-pricing negotiations -Undermines the IRS' free tax filing program -Delays minimum staffing requirements for nursing homes An ugly nightmare from top to bottom.
The Trump Administration is trying to unilaterally shut down the Department of Education without an act of Congress. Joined an amicus brief to support litigation against Trumpâs attack on the Constitution and education.
Republicans are going to do everything they can to distract you from the fact that they voted to cut health care for millions of Americans and make life more expensive. The American people will not forget.
They can try and justify it, but it is wrong
"The bill includes the most aggressive assault on climate action of any legislation in history. In fact, it represents a profound shift in policy. Trump and Republicans are not just ignoring climate change â theyâre actually trying to make it worse." â @paulwaldman.bsky.social
So they deny other states and just help the ones they need? I still think they're losing TX in other ways
The GOP wants the most vulnerable of us to die so they can save money from those pesky medical bills.
Lies
Provide FEMA, dork.
Uh. No.
It turns out that "nobody" saw the Texas floods coming by design, this disaster has a culprit and their names are Donald Trump and Elon Musk. #3E #EndAutogenocide
Healthcare should not be tied to a job
Bessent: "This Democratic Party blew out the deficit in 2020." (Trump was president in 2020.)
Great job, MAGA-MAHA
Do not lose hope. You are not alone. Most of America rejects this. The people do not want an authoritarian regimeâwe do not want oligarchy, we do not want Christian nationalism, we do not want techno-fascism. And weâre more powerful than theyâll ever be. The people united will never be defeated.
"They have borrowed directly from Nazi sources to make the very same points that the Nazis were making. They understand very well that the way to establish a form of government that is not bound by law or reason is to declare a state of emergency."
Wtf?!
