In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.

10 children were shot today in Shreveport, LA and 8 of them died. The police chief just doesn’t know how something like this could ever happen. But I think he knows exactly how something like this could happen and it has to do with the > 393 million guns in this country w/ very little regulation.

It real funny how Congress keeps failing by the exact number of votes needed to not do a single damned thing.

Disney's new CEO, whose pay package is worth nearly $45M, just announced 1,000 layoffs.

Reminder that Disney paid an effective federal income tax rate of ZERO in 2025 and aims to buy back $7B of its own stock in 2026.

This is what corporate greed looks like.

The President of the United States is Unhinged.

Frankly, many believe he’s crazy. The GOP lets this demented old man remain in power. SHAME!

Another night of ranting... as we gear up to attack Cuba!

DOGE cut Head Start, Alaska's ferries, libraries. But Elon Musk's SpaceX holds $15.4B in federal contracts -- untouched. Naturally, Musk determined he had no conflicts of interest. He did this review himself. I'm sure it was very thorough. #DOGE #BoughtAndPaid

A tweet quoting Senator Andy Kim criticizing being denied a briefing on the Iran war, with a video still of him speaking at a press conference alongside other officials.

It's so bad they won't even brief Congress.

France passed a law requiring solar panels on every parking lot with more than 80 spaces.

Equals 10 nuclear reactors

The US -- 800 million parking spaces. Most of them are uncovered asphalt sitting in direct sunlight.

Why aren't we doing this?

BREAKING: Maryland is about to become the first state in the nation to ban the use of surveillance data and dynamic pricing at grocery stores.

Despite Apocalyptic Warnings, California Fast Food Wage Hike Didn’t Kill Jobs UC Berkeley study finds employment held steady — and only pennies were added to menu prices.

A new report from the University of California shows that the state's decision to raise the minimum wage for fast food workers to $20/hr didn’t hurt jobs, or raise prices much.

Food for thought:

In '24, 245M Americans were eligible to vote.

just 73.6 % of those (174M) registered to vote.

just 154M of them actually voted.

US voter turnout ranked in bottom 1/3 of all democracies.

This is how democracy dies.

Too many people have taken too much for granted for too long

Thank you for originally posting this. Wonderful idea. 👇👇👇

🔻 $5.6 billion to NASA

🔻 $4.8 billion to NSF

🔻 $4.6 billion to EPA

🔻 $2.9 billion to CDC

🔻 $1.6 billion to NOAA

If these science cuts pass they will make the US a less healthy and less safe place to live.
