Take two minutes to watch this piece with NYT photojournalist Kenny Holston, the only news photographer on the House floor during Trump’s State of the Union speech.

There’s one shot in particular that will likely end up in the history books.

See if you catch which one.

Measles outbreaks are costing the U.S. millions of dollars. The true losses can't be counted. As vaccination rates decline, the economic consequences will increase, research suggests.

Not vaccinating leads to new strains which might be resistant to our current vaccines. The cost to the US-and everywhere- will be so much more.

Measles outbreaks could cost the U.S. over a $1 billion a year, if vaccine rates decline www.nbcnews.com/health/kids-...

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

SAVE America Act would crash voter registration drives β€œFlorida, Texas and Arizona… they're seen as places where you have a laboratory for cutting civil rights.”

Republicans in Congress could steer voter registration drives into a ditch with bills that would all but prevent civic organizations like churches and grassroots community groups from collecting and submitting registration forms. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I find myself comparing this administration to suddenly finding oneself a passenger in a car operated by a drunk driver. At some point you need to take the wheel, jump, or convince them to stop and let someone take over.

If we had to go to war, which we didn't, I'd feel a lot better if there weren't nothing but posers in charge. Trump. Hegseth. Gabbard. Not to mention, he gutted the military of most of its senior leaders. Oh, and Israel's first strike was against a school. At least 26 kids dead. Way to end a regime.
