"Now that I have won my freedom, like an eagle I am eager for the sky
And I can see the light of a clear blue morning
I can see the light of brand new day
I can see the light of a clear blue morning
Oh, and everything's gonna be all right
It's gonna be okay"

Trump rebrands Congressionally-approved troop housing subsidy as ‘warrior dividend’ bonus More than $2.9 billion in reconciliation funds was allocated to beef up troop housing allowances. Now it’s being used for $1,776 checks.

The money comes from the congressional approval of a basic allowance for housing (BAH) stipend. He just renamed it. www.defenseone.com/policy/2025/...

Every $1 invested in SNAP generates $1.80 in economic activity.

It’s not about the money, Trump just wants Americans to go hungry.

Understand that if you do this, of your own volition, HIPA is rendered useless; which, is the whole point.

DOGE’s big illusion: the heavy costs of the Trump administration’s so-called efficiency - CREW | Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington CREW’s review of some of the programs targeted for cuts by DOGE and the Trump admin found that the elimination or reduction of these programs have directly cost over 50,000 people their jobs.

A CDC infographic highlighting successes from the Vaccines for Children (VFC) program. At the top, it says, "The Vaccines for Children (VFC) Program helps ensure that all children have a better chance for getting their recommended vaccines. VFC helped prevent disease and save lives. The infographic begins with "CCD estimates that vaccination of children born between 1994 and 2021 will:" The first point says "prevent 472 million illnesses (29.8 million hospitalizations" an arrow points right to an illustration of a group of children. Below them, it says "more than the current population of the entire U.S.A" The second point says "help avoid 1,052,000 deaths" an arrow is pointing right to an illustration of a city. Below it, it says "greater than the population of Seattle, WA". The third point says. "save nearly $2.2 trillion in total societal costs (that includes $479 billion in direct costs". An arrow points right to a dollar bill. Below that, it says "more than $5,000 for each American".

The Vaccines for Children (VFC) program makes sure that all children have access to vaccines - regardless of their income or insurance status.

Data show that over a 30-year period, vaccines helped avoid over a million deaths and saved trillions of dollars.

No No No was RFK Jr's answer as to whether he has ever treated a kiddo with a communicable vaccine preventable disease. Physicians and nurses have. We know the pain, suffering, and fear involved.
Vaccines work. Vaccines are safe. Follow our advice-get your children vaccinated. RFK Jr-go home!

Isn't thimerosal also used as a preservative in contact lens solution and tattoo ink?

🤣

We know Trump, his cabinet, and lock step Republicans don't read the Constitution but they could, at least, read the room

Let freedom ring!🇺🇲

Keep it peaceful. Don't engage counterprotesters or the police - That's what they want. Don't give it to them. Look them in the eye and stand your ground. They HATE it when you do that. Don't antagonize them and definitely don't throw anything at them. If violence erupts move away to a safe place.

We are disgusted that RFK Jr. just wiped out the entire ACIP and replaced its members with people who have pushed dangerous misinformation, including critics of lifesaving vaccines. This is not reform. It is sabotage.

Brian Wilson, founding member of the Beach Boys, dies at 82 "We are at a loss for words right now," Wilson's family said in a Wednesday Instagram post.

😢 RIP Brian.

Thank you for all the great music and for your friendship...

Kamala Blue Chucks and pearls

And to think we could have had joy.

Bill Hartman, MD, PhD Public health is not his priority. The HHS secretary has always wanted to make sure that vaccines are less available, less affordable and more misunderstood and feared. Mission accomplished. ACIP was a group of brilliant volunteer physicians and scientists, are we now going to see a bunch of ivermectin and methylene blue pushers? Health policy by TikTok influencers is not ok.

Texas families, advocates urge action on public school funding bill after school voucher bill signed into law It's been five years since state lawmakers increased the per-student funding for public schools.

Surprise! With a signed voucher bill, public school funding is stalled.

"It's been five years since state lawmakers increased the per-student funding for public schools. Given the historic levels of inflation since then, districts are having to make do with less."
