Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines.
When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.
The presidentβs praise of the team went viral, but for the wrong reasons.
Forcing people back into the βworkplaceβ is a good way to destroy productivity.

The biggest takeaway is that these tariffs punish us all for Donald Trump's pleasure. There is no other benefit.
It just turns us all into beggars who must bow to a king who doesn't care if we live or die.
"When the new tariffs come into contact with external reality, they are likely to produce the exact opposite of the intended outcome," RogΓ© Karma writes:
Trump is golfing instead of honoring four dead American soldiers.
Disgusting.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A βTRADE DEFICITββITβS JUST CALLED βBUYING THINGS.β YOU DO NOT HAVE A TRADE DEFICIT WITH YOUR DENTIST JUST BECAUSE HE NEVER BUYS ANYTHING FROM YOU.

The image is a heatmap titled "Measles," showing measles cases across U.S. states from 1928 to 2003. States listed on the y-axis include Alaska, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Montana, North Dakota, New Hampshire, New York, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The x-axis spans years from 1928 to 2003. A vertical line marks the introduction of the measles vaccine around 1963. The color scale at the bottom ranges from blue (0 cases) to red (4,000+ cases), with shades of green, yellow, and orange indicating intermediate values (1,000, 2,000, 3,000 cases). Before 1963, many states show frequent high case numbers (yellow to red), while after 1963, cases drop significantly, with mostly blue indicating near-zero cases.
And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.β
