This data comes from a presentation at the the June ACIP meeting extrapolated forward. Now there will likely be more as RFK Jr. consolidates his power. 4/

The weirdest thing about Trump deploying the National Guard to the Nation's Capital is that he still hasn't released the Epstein files despite campaigning on that pledge, probably because he's directly complicit in a massive sex trafficking operation that targeted children.

If you're watching Trump's press conference, a good way to make sure you fully comprehend his message is whenever he says "homeless," "criminals," "scum," "filth," "savagery," "gang," and/or "illegal," substitute in the word "black."

Roger Marshal you are fucking lying! Working: 64% of adult Medicaid recipients are employed. Full-time: 44% work full-time. Part-time: 20% work part-time. Not working: caregivers (12%), ill or disabled (10%), in school (7%), or retired or unable to find work (8%). www.kff.org/medicaid/iss...

Oh so Senate Republicans ADMIT that the Big Beautiful Bill cuts Medicaid. Their bill effectively defunds rural hospitals. Some simple math: $15 billion does not plug a nearly $1 trillion hole. It doesn't add up! This is a self-inflicted wound and this band-aid won't heal it.

Establishment Democrats have done more to stop Zohran Mamdani than they have to stop Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, Palantir or the Crypto Corruption machine currently swallowing American democracy whole.
