On Memorial Day, it’s appropriate to honor the 10 airmen with whom my dad served and trained on a B-17 in WWII, all lost on Dec. 1, 1943. Fighting fascism, I might add. dugganpubs.wordpress.com/essays/the-c...

Just as the Johns Hopkins team did during the height of the #Covid pandemic, it has now created a dasboard to track the measles crisis. With federal data encumbered by RFK Jr’s stranglehold on the CDC, Hopkins offers unbiased insight into the outbreak👇

If I never hear the word "performative" again, it'll be too soon.
