Annual flu vaccine no longer required for U.S. military, Hegseth says The move alarmed some public health experts, who warned that it would weaken troop readiness.

NOT SO FUN FACT—half of all U.S. war casualties during WWI were due to influenza. Today—Trump’s War Secretary remove the flu vaccine requirement for all U.S. military. Plus, bragging about this to all enemies is just absolute idiocy. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Repost. Repost. Repost.

All is nothing.

Ever wonder why species are always connected to a flock, a herd, a gaggle, a phylum, a smack, a knot, a pack, a pride, a pod or for human beings...

Maybe it is because it is the most efficient way to survive to live long enough to reproduce and raise the young to survive so they can reproduce?

Or we could just support and demand a system remain codified with the Rule of Law plus a fully elected Congress without a price tag hanging around their neck like jewelry.

I almost feel sorry for this man. It is obvious he has never looked through a microscope in his life at a cell slide. Never stayed awake through any chemistry course. Just as obvious as my snark and disregard for his statements against science.

Senator Jon Ossoff neatly breaks down political corruption in America — and how Trump’s “Mar-a-Lago mafia” has exploited it.

Every single Democrat should be saying this.

If you live in Virginia, tomorrow you have a huge opportunity to make it clear to the GOP that if they want to win, it won’t be by changing the rules and redrawing maps. At least, not without a fight. Vote YES on the redistricting vote, and push back!

Hey Virginia! Read this (please) if you haven't already. Share it with family and friends. TY... we are all in this together.

Today I turn 89. I’ve seen this country at its best and its worst, and I know how much community matters. For my birthday, I’m asking you to stand with PFLAG and support the work that’s helped so many in the LGBTQ+ community, including me. give.pflag.org/page/95493/d...

Not to mention that the small communities around these businesses lost those dollars from multiplying and expanding their own local economy.

The top executive at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota saw her total pay jump to $4.9 million last year, even as red ink at the state’s largest Medicare insurer surged and started threatening benefits for seniors.

The same religious daycare & preschools already getting access to public school assets? Like sharing assets or labor (equipment held by public schools cutting and caring for sidewalks, lawns, and plants for religious holdings nearby). Religious preschool-daycares on every block in some towns.

The window of their glory is temporary. Just like META's recent case the business models are going to get squashed. So the strategy is to defeat or take over the future before they get regulated and punished when the GOP gets unelected in midterms and 2028. Peter Thiel will be curtailed.

No snow, sadly. Grand Lady of Falls though.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what power group got this rigged deal through Congress. If you still have questions ask your Senators. Re-watch West Wing. Slow Horses. Visit the Library of Congress online and read up on legislation in the works now. ...

PayOffs'R US, PayOffs'R Trump, PayOffs'R Oil-Soaked... wonder if these have been copyrighted. Hmm, interesting.
