    The Trump Effect Q1

    I don't see any of all those factories going up. Ask yourself, who would want to buy things produced at U.S. wages? Who would build a factory in an uncertain economy? What I do see is companies all over the country freezing hiring: U.S. employers posted 7.2 million vacancies in March, down...

    (AP) Kansas measles cases double to 23 and new Ohio outbreak sickens 10

    Most recent outbreaks have been traced to someone who traveled overseas and brought it back. Measles doesn't spread to become an outbreak if 95% of the population is vaccinated.

    Stock market today: Dow, S&P 500 lead losses as struggles continue amid Trump's latest tariff threats

    It is especially hard when a day is not a day: "The government that Trump and Musk are destroying, with the complicity of their party, is popular, and Republican members of Congress are apparently unwilling to have to vote on the policies that are putting their radical ideology into place. In...

    Education Department cutting nearly half of workforce

    Because we should send them all to Trump University. Oh, wait, that was shut down for fraud. I guess we'll have to send them to Musk University. And, when he finishes wiping out the National Weather Service, we can pay Musk for weather forecasts too. Right after we switch all our communications...

    (Reuters) Measles cases rise to 223 in Texas, state health department says

    Go to a cemetery that has been operating for many years. Count the graves by age of deceased per decade. Note the reduction in childhood deaths after vaccinations became common in the 50's. This is why vaccinations are necessary.

    DOGE scores big court win, allowed access data on 3 federal agencies

    Musk makes Billions from government contracts. Musk is deciding which government contracts to pay and which to cancel. Does anybody see a problem here?

    DOGE scores big court win, allowed access data on 3 federal agencies

    Yes, because the "beauracratic automatons" went through security clearance investigations; not Trump waving a magic wand.

    Donald Trump pardons 1,500 defendants from Jan. 6, keeping campaign pledge and outraging critics

    Who attacked the U.S. capitol on Jan 6? Who inspired it? No one is above the law. Terrorism: the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

    Trump to Demolish Radical Trans Agenda on Day One with EO's.

    The point is: fewer than 10 transgender athletes compete in college sports. This is a statistical zero and not really worth talking about. Climate change, gun violence, immigration reform, homelessness or the federal deficit are more important problems for the administration to deal with. Not...

    Trump to Demolish Radical Trans Agenda on Day One with EO's.

    I repeat: To which do you assign people with both male and female sex organs? They are not the majority, but they do exist. If you go to the Wikipedia article and scroll about halfway down, there is a photograph of such a person.

    Trump to Demolish Radical Trans Agenda on Day One with EO's.

    Your beliefs have nothing to do with the facts. I simple terms: "During the Victorian era, medical authors attempted to ascertain whether or not humans could be hermaphrodites, adopting a precise biological definition to the term.[49] From that period until the early 21st century, individuals...
