Musk’s website, DOGE, leaked classified government information to the entire world. NOFURN [Not Releasable to Foreign Nationals] information on their website about the [intelligence community] headcount has prompted a scramble as people check whether their information has been accessed.

The fact that an entire generation of pediatricians has almost zero exposure to the horror of Epiglottitis is a testament to the benefit of the HiB vaccine.

Something Even Worse: My Hib Story β€œWhen Father Myers got up at Mass and told everyone to pray for Ben and Barbara’s daughter, MaryAnne, we thought you were never coming home again,” my sister Jan would say, wide-eyed and animated.

β€œYou know that night when I couldn’t breathe?” I once said to my mother.

β€œYes.”

β€œI thought you were going to lay me down in the snow to die because I was so hot.”

Joe Biden might have been old, but his administration and its officials knew what the National Nuclear Security Administration was responsible for and never fired those in charge of managing our nuclear stockpile β€œby accident.”

This is the front page of a fraudulent research article that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. The word "RETRACTED" is written across it in large red letters. 

Wikipedia: On 28th February 1998, a fraudulent research paper by physician Andrew Wakefield and twelve coauthors, titled "Ileal-Lymphoid-Nodular Hyperplasia, Non-Specific Colitis, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder in Children", was published in the British medical journal The Lancet.[1] The paper falsely claimed causative links between the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and colitis and between colitis and autism. The fraud involved data selection, data manipulation, and two undisclosed conflicts of interest.

NYTimes adding insult to injury in this tragedy. The β€œtreatment” was for autism, which isn’t a thing, and was being done by someone with no medical training who charges cash for expensive bogus therapies. And now a 5-year-old is dead because of the grift.

Pete Hegseth admitted to the Senate that he paid $50,000 (!!!) to silence a "Jane Doe" who accused him of rape.

But at his hearing last week, he said he was β€œfalsely accused."

More questions than answers. We can't rush his vote and trust him with our national security.

β€œAll bluster, very low substance… he’s an armchair tough guy. He said that John McCain is not a war hero yet he sought his own five military deferments.”

RT to ruin Trump’s day!
