OK, now that the midterms are over, can we stop the deadly rhetoric that measles is a harmless disease and the vaccine is unnecessary?
It's going to be very difficult to get this genie back in the bottle but the sooner we try, the better chance we have.
A sixth person in Pennsylvania has died with measles, state health officials said Wednesday.

Slotting dishing it.
Accountability.
I know a lot of folks are talking about the election results, but this tweet, from a sitting @VP, is stunning. The decision to go to war is the most solemn responsibility that a President and Vice President have as leaders.
So for you to reduce it to a simple political calculation while we still have 50,000 troops in the Middle East, is one of the most crass, cynical things I've seen. You and President Trump got us into this war, without a clear objective and without regard for the will of the American people. It's cost us American lives and billions of dollars of American treasure, with no end in sight.
Last night, the American people delivered a crystal-clear message about the mismanagement of this war, and what it has done to our pocketbooks. Whether you supported the war or simply failed to stop it, your job is not to try and cover yourself, but to get us out of it.
She did!

Pete Buttigieg has the patience of a kindergarten teacher and the communication skills of a constitutional scholar.
His emotional intelligence is through the roof.

Trump claims he and Bibi agreed to end the $4 billion in aid. Bibi's Finance Ministry basically responded with:
"We have zero idea what he's talking about."
It's a pathetic, desperate stunt to trick people into voting for his party. He's not ending the aid; he's just lying about it

Seven seats might not sound like much.
But seven seats could mean the end of the Republican supermajority in the South Carolina House.
And for the first time in modern history, Democrats are competing in all 124 House districts.
Now it's your turn, South Carolina. Vote! 💙

Fuel prices don’t just impact our roads, they’re having devastating impacts on our fishermen, too.
Today, let’s send a clear message to the Washington elite: South Carolinians are finished being collateral damage to their flawed policies.

A onetime West Point cadet drugged his then-girlfriend in her barracks room, administered abortion pills to her against her will and caused a miscarriage. Then he went on to study at two Ivy League universities, starting at one of them after he pleaded guilty to assault, according to court records and a new lawsuit. cnn.it/4AdkKsM
Or is he just saying that right now?!
President Trump said Tuesday that the U.S. would cut off aid to Israel by the end of the year, suggesting the phaseout of direct military assistance to the U.S. ally could occur much faster than expected. 🔗 on.wsj.com/4iv0RpI
