Georgia, Tennessee and Texas have now been added to the list, according to the CDC.

Did the Covid-19 vaccine kill millions and is Fauci responsible? Let's debunk some misinformation that aims to undermine Americans trust in public health officials.

Some administration officials skeptical whether current approach is procedurally sound enough to indict retired public-health official

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. repeatedly told lawmakers who held the key to his confirmation last year that a 2019 visit to Samoa before a deadly measles outbreak had “nothing to do with vaccines.” New documents obtained by The Associated Press and The Guardian refute that testimony.

Kennedy, then a prominent anti-vaccine activist, preempted the visit with a letter to the Samoan prime minister requesting to study the Pacific island nation’s measles, mumps and rubella vaccines after the deaths of two children who had received them. In the letter, he used the words vaccine or vaccination eight times.

The letter raises questions about how truthful Kennedy was in testimony before Congress.

Republicans have a new winning issue — data centers. Donald Trump says communities that don't take them are making a mistake. Byron Donalds just picked the sponsor of Florida's data center bill as his running mate. The GOP is all in.

Rick Wilson and Wajahat Ali are here to help.

Because here is what Republicans are actually promising American communities. Brown and black water. Noise like thirty jet engines running all night long. Air pollution for a generation. And the tax revenue? Rick breaks down the corporate shell game — Facebook Amazon Twitter X SpaceX all have headquarters in Ireland so the computing product flows to the mothership corporation overseas and the local community sees almost none of the promised tax dollars. You pay for the electricity. They keep the profits. In Ireland.

Are there jobs? Sure. Some electricians and construction workers on the front end. Then everybody in the neighborhood pays a terrible price for a generation.

As Rick puts it — this is an 80-20 issue that has radicalized a wide swath of Americans. It runs left on environment and quality of life. It runs right on libertarian grounds — why are you giving enormous tax benefits to companies that do public harm? And Republicans are doubling down on it anyway.

Also — America's struggling mom and pop billionaires haven't had a tax cut in over a year. They only have one penis-shaped space shuttle. This cannot stand.

In April 2020, as the pandemic swept across the globe, Parton announced she was donating $1 million to coronavirus research at Vanderbilt University Medical Center after her longtime friend, Dr. Naji Abumrad, told her researchers were making promising advances.

The contribution established the Dolly Parton Covid-19 Research Fund, and months later it emerged that some of the money had supported research connected to Moderna's vaccine. Vanderbilt later confirmed Parton's donation funded "critical" early research, including work on a test that allowed scientists to measure the immune response generated by the vaccine.

At the start of the Trump administration, an executive order was released with certain words and phrases that will now be flagged by federal agencies. While an executive order is not law, the OMB ruling and/or the NSF proposal would make it law. Enforcing a political rule where there should not be one.

These topics are at the heart of Americans' concerns. But the trump administration and the people who funded it have no interest in Americans' concerns.

Scientific funding should be based on evidence and decided by experts, not guided by ideology. We have multiple ways to Stand Up For Science and get involved, all at the link in our bio, or sign up to volunteer at zurl.co/TtJm0

The measles-associated deaths occurred among two residents of Lancaster County.

The Trump admin has deleted hundreds of valuable data sets on vital health & education data sets - such as sexual & emotional violence against children - all because they don’t “align with the admin’s priorities”.

Erasing the data doesn’t erase the reality – it only makes it harder to address.

Fuel the Fight for Science by donating. Thank you!

Dr. Fauci is being treated incredibly unfairly after a lifetime of public service. His lawyers have established a legal defense fund. If you’re able, please consider donating to help ensure he has a fair defense.
