Maryland health officials warn providers about an upsurge in mumps cases Maryland health officials are warning about an uptick in cases of mumps.

Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading.

Now we’ve got mumps rolling up.

Expect more.

This is just the beginning of RFK Jr.’s successful infectious disease reintroduction plan.

One of my best engineers quit yesterday. Not for money. Not for a better title. The exit interview took 4 minutes. He said one sentence, "I'm tired of proving I'm not lazy". This is the engineer who saved us $2mil last quarter. Who fixed the production issue no one else could touch. Who shipped three months early. Last month, we gave him a performance bonus. Yesterday, we sent him a Slack message: "why weren't you available at 9am?" This was the day after he fixed a critical incident at 2am. He didn't give two weeks notice. He said, "I already gave six months". How many of your best people have already quit. They just haven't told you yet.

The only hard work fascist multi-millionaires & billionaires have done is to try & convince workers they are lazy if they aren't working 24/7. That's a big fat lie.

This made me laugh a little too hard.

Ultimately, Trump is old news. Even if he lives 10 more years Vance is where the American Maga Nazi party's real focus is. Vance & the fascist billionaires who support him are the real threat.

Aloka, their rescue dog, was along for the walk.

Ohhhhhhhh. Yeah that makes a lot more sense, @stephruhle.bsky.social

WATCH — @gomez.house.gov interviews Rep. @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social : “I think 🇺🇸 has been lied to about who these people are in ICE detention. That stereotype has so consumed what we think of immigrants that we’ll put a 5-year-old kid who’s done nothing wrong in prison.”

I just now saw this. It needs to be hanging in a museum. It’s a work of art!

When will Republicans, veterans organizations, & retired military officers speak up about this? No president in the history of the Republic has done this. Yet Trump, Vance, & Hegseth do it constantly. It betrays the most important core value of our military-no partisan politics.

Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity.

America deserves better.

This should be on a t-shirt and raise money for the survivors.

The last think I wanted to see first thing in the morning was a post by Catturd but here we are...🫤🙄😆

So dark — Tennessee-based @CoreCivic wants to be making even more money on ICE detentions.

“ICE was our first customer 43 years ago, and has been our largest customer for over a decade,” CoreCivic CEO Patrick Swindle said on the earnings call.

CARTOON OF THE DAY 😕

(From @andertoon.bsky.social )

HAYES: “The target turned out to be 4 party balloons… No Mexican cartel drones. Just Border Patrol agents with a borrowed experimental space laser shooting at (party balloons).”🎪

The Trump regime, folks 🤦🏼- Bondi, Duffy etc all lied about why El Paso airport shut down.🎈

Ask both candidates what they think of the filthy liberal TRF. 😆That should rile the Woodlands up a bit if both criticize it.

Will Fox be updating their story on this and giving it the same amount of airtime as they did initial arrest?

Does he remember the 90s show he was on? Kids watched that too.
