Kennedy's efforts to reshape vaccine policies have been well chronicled, but ProPublica wanted to take a broader look at how the changes might affect Americans' health in the years to come. We found that long-forgotten plagues have roared back, killing and maiming children in parts of the world where access to vaccines or trust in them faltered. What seemed like subtle changes to a country's vaccine policies had disastrous consequences years later. Even in places that offer highly advanced health care, doctors have felt impotent trying to undo the damage when these horrors return. Modern medicine can't reverse paralysis from polio. Surgeons can intervene when a baby is born blind, deaf and with heart defects after being exposed to rubella in the womb, but the child is still likely to face a life shaped by disability.
A Mexican teenager has died while in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody in South Florida, according to a statement from the agency. Royer Perez-Jimenez, a 19-year-old from Mexico, died on March 16 at the Glades County Detention Center " a county jail on the western shore of Lake Okeechobee that has long housed immigrant detainees and been the subject of allegations of abuse. According to ICE, Perez "died of a presumed suicide," although his official cause of death remains under investigation. He appears to be the youngest person to die in ICE custody since President Donald Trump took office again in January 2025, according to ICE records. According to ICE's statement, at around 2:30 a.m. on March 16, a Glades County detention officer found Perez "unconscious and unresponsive." Staff began CPR, and medical personnel arrived minutes later, determined he was without a pulse, and took over resuscitation efforts before requesting emergency medical services.

When Joe Kent resigned as the U.S.'s top counterterrorism official over dissatisfaction with the Iran war, President Donald Trump and much of the establishment GOP shrugged him off as a nobody who was probably better off gone.

Fan Xinquan, a retired electronics worker in Beijing, has recently started raising a "lobster," hoping that the AI agent he has been training can help organise his specialised industry knowledge better than chatbots like DeepSeek.
Let me explain something to the morons out there. President Piggy is going to have the Singular achievement of losing a war without having controlled the country. Let me explain. We lost Viet Nam, We lost Afghanistan, We lost Iraq. But in all of those wars we controlled all or a substantial part of the country for an extended period of time. That will not be the case with Iran. Let's be clear about something. In the 100+years where air power has been a thing, NO war was ever won by air power alone. No Regime FELL by air power alone. So, brag all you want about destroying this that or the other thing or murdering countless children. ALL IRAN HAS TO DO TO WIN IS SURVIVE Read more

I'm so tired of this s"t. I'm tired of having to learn about any of these awful people. I'm tired of them starting wars, shooting innocent people, and frittering away billions of tax dollars that you and I pay to have a functional government. I'm tired of them wearing ugly shoes, paying each other empty compliments, and pretending like they're anything but mediocrities. And I'm REALLY tired of them ruining things that you and I might otherwise enjoy. That includes the Olympics, but it also includes things like medicine, education, transportation, surfing around on the internet, and not dying in a nuclear holocaust.
President Trump recently signed an executive order that aims to end a 20-year experiment in backdoor socialism usurping private wealth to serve special interests. It affirms fiduciary responsibility and extends it to proxy advisers "that prioritize radical political agendas over investor returns." Fiduciary responsibility requires investment managers and advisers to act in "the best interest of the investor," and it applies even when the investor is seeking nonfinancial outcomes such as environmental, social, faith-based or humanitarian gains. Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Paul Atkins's recent announcement that the commission is reviewing Biden-era rules governing so-called environmental, social and governance funds affirms this point. Fiduciary duty requires investment managers and advisers to exercise loyalty and care to ensure that investment objectives, whether financial or nonfinancial, are fulfilled
(November 2024) U.S. President-elect Donald Trump chose loyalists with little experience for several key cabinet positions on Wednesday, stunning some allies and making clear that he is serious about reshaping - and in some cases testing - America's institutions. Trump's choice of congressman Matt Gaetz, 42, for U.S. attorney general, America's top law enforcement officer, was a surprising pick. The former attorney has never worked in the Justice Department, or as a prosecutor, and was investigated by the Justice Department over sex trafficking allegations. His office said in 2023 that he had been told by prosecutors he would not face criminal charges.
A US judge on Tuesday ruled that more than 1,000 Voice of America workers should be reinstated and the government should plan to resume international broadcasts following an earlier ruling that President Donald Trump's pick to oversee mass layoffs at the VOA was unlawfully appointed, making the job cuts invalid.
Trump invokes Pearl Harbor in talking about launching Iran war The US president was pressed by reporters in the Oval Office to explain why he did not coordinate or inform allies, such as Japan, before launching the war. "We didn't tell anybody about it because we wanted surprise," said Trump, who then said, turning to Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, "Who knows better about surprise than Japan?
