In a time of national stress like this, it would be good to hear from the VA Secretary about the resources available to veterans nationwide.

Or to hear that VA will be there for all those servicemembers involved in the Iran attacks when they get home.

But this is not a normal VA Secretary.

Why did federal prosecutors ask New Mexico to drop its investigation into Zorro Ranch in 2019? And why are these files not in the file release by the DOJ under the Epstein Files Transparency Act?

The attack on Iran was a unilateral action by Trump, without Congress, without the support of the country (only 27% support the attack).

However, all of our allies have been forced to respond in kind to protect their own assets and military personnel. Any casualties will be blood on Trump's hands.

If every single person who had spent the last 40 years telling Leftists that they're being "dramatic" had actually pushed for change or shut things down, we wouldn't be here.

Oh, you wanna come for voters about an outcome?

WELL, HERE IT IS. ACCEPT THE CRITIQUE AND ACT ACCORDINGLY.

No, you aren’t correct…. There are various reasons for a provisional ballot even for a primary!!!!

Iran: Was this about nuclear weapons or about toppling a foreign government? Neither?

Trump has no plan. None. Just throw missiles into Iran strategy. Doesn't matter if civilians die.

Do Americans know the price tag of each missile fired? It's in the millions/missile.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

Trump symbolizes everything women have had to deal with our whole lives. He’s the dirty old man on the train, the creepy neighbor, the misogynistic boss, the abusive spouse, and for many of us, the rapist. It’s no wonder we’re triggered every single fucking day.

Npr could compile a list of all the $ the administration has held back and calculate the number of people impacted.
Tens of millions!!

Given the demographics of HIV patients it's not exactly a surprise that Republicans aren't bothered about 90% of them dying. The straight non drug users amongst them are just viewed as collateral damage.

Public health school nearly convinced me to go full time into harm reduction work and the HIV prevention lectures were my favorite. We’ve learned and done so much since 1995.. but it feels nearly impossible to imagine any progress at all without USAID and much of PEPFAR.

Whatever you think of her, and clearly the objectively right answer is not much, we can say this much about her: she knows him well

As on so many other fronts, Trump 2.0 is a different proposition. Critics say many members of his team lack relevant experience and their job performance is judged on loyalty to the president above all else.
The past year has witnessed a series of blunders, missteps and downright bizarre antics that prompt some to draw comparisons with a clown car.

The wisest among us have always recognized religion as nothing more than the ability to control the masses from the time of the cave. It is evil presented as the most desirable good making it acceptable to those without the will or acumen to understand.

Part of Project 2025 has been dismantling the progress towards the 2030 goals set forth by UNAIDS and WHO in 2014. Among the stated program goals had been a 90% reduction in new cases and a 95-95-95 strategy: 95% of people know their status, are on ART, and achieve viral suppression.

Even with some of the cuts restored, we will never achieve the 90% reduction of HIV within a generation now, a goal which was shockingly not entirely out of grasp only decades after it was seen as a death sentence. Sit with the fact that this is, however, what the UN was pitching only two years ago.

US-South Africa funding: As American cash dries up the fight to stop Aids gets harder Health experts fear that as testing and monitoring drops the risk of the further spread of HIV rises.

A horrific example can be seen in South Africa, which has been responding to one of the worst HIV epidemics in the world, with 180,000 new infections last yearβ€” a huge decline from when it was more than half a million, only possible because of funding which was just cut by the regime.

Judge blocks Trump admin from rescinding health grants to Democratic-led states The ruling temporarily blocks the Trump Administration from cutting $600 million in public health grants that had already been allocated to four Democratic-led states.

Unbelievable that we still talk about withholding HIV funding as a form of political maneuvering rather than an act of social murder, as if the 80’s + 90’s never happened and we didn’t lose an entire generation to this already.
