This one is an ABSOLUTE MUST-SEE. Truly. Please make time. Painful to watch but Senator Bernie is right on the edge of embarrassing RFK, Jr. to tears. Time for Bobbie Jr. to leave the stadium, find another job, and "help" others, JUST NOT US.

AG Brown calls on Trump to end illegal National Guard deployments in American cities https://www.atg.wa.gov/news/news-releases/ag-brown-calls-trump-end-illegal-national-guard-deployments-american-cities

How much practice do these guys get involved in before they testify? I'm convinced that they all, the Trump team, is the "not ready for prime time" team. And sadly, they look at the RED block below, and can't see the contradiction. Hopeless.

"House Democrats, with help from more than half a dozen Republicans, succeeded in killing a motion to censure Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.) for clashing with ICE officers in April."

"Today, 26 African countries are in the midst of mpox outbreaks, up from 13 a year ago according to Africa CDC. And, while recent estimates suggest cases are dropping in several key countries, Africa CDC says, there have been over 100,000 suspected mpox cases so far this year."

That would be a yes..

It's encouraging to see that states are forming regional public health alliances to ensure everyone will still have access to vaccines. They should take it one step further and include distributing free masks and tests, installing clean air infrastructure etc. The best way to prevent outbreaks is with layered protections!

I understand that journalism costs money. But the problem with paywalls is that certain news outlets charge you $10-15 a month or more to read their content thinking it's reasonable and it never occurs to them that thousands of other such outlets might think the same thing. Information needs to be free and open to everybody, not just for a few rich people who can afford to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars a month to get around paywalls.

If you run an instance, the outcome of this will help you. If you use the fediverse at all, it will help make the fediverse safer and kinder for you. It’s so important.

California, Oregon, and Washington are joining forces to combat Health Sec. RFK Jr.’s dismantling of public health infrastructure—instead, working together to set evidence-based health policy and guidelines, separate from the CDC’s recommendations.

It doesn’t matter if you feed your kids organic foods, MAHA moms. It doesn’t matter if you lift every day, bro. It doesn’t matter how many supplements you consume. When polio, diphtheria, measles, mumps, and whooping cough come a calling, all that matters is if you are vaccinated or not.

“This was a #Jewish home, and so was that. These were all Jewish homes,” Badriyah Mousa Shatah said as she walked through #Damascus’s historic Jewish Quarter, or the “Harat al-Yahud” as it is known in Arabic.

Shatah, who was born in Damascus and has lived in the city all her life, is one of the last #Jews left in the country. According to her, there are only four others who remain.

Shatah, 56, has watched the Jewish community she knew and loved crumble before her eyes."

"In an opening statement, the Maryland Democrat Jamie Raskin said that if Farage was, as he said, worried about the implications of the UK’s Online Safety Act, he might have done better to make the case as an MP rather than in the US."
