Carney: "Since Americans put their tariffs in the price of aluminum in the United States has gone up 58%. It's gone up by more than the tariff. Some of that's international prices, but most of that is pass-through of the tariff. So that's not a good situation for American companies."

Elon Musk’s U.S. DOGE Service consistently overstated its savings, taking credit for lease cancellations initiated before the group existed, a government watchdog found.
DOGE also claimed contracts were terminated that had not been, the report said. wapo.st/4wEb8Wt

ER doc here who never missed a day of work during COVID. Aaron Rodgers never looked down anyone's raw throat, listened to struggling lungs, intubated and ventilated the breathless or took care of people who died. Just like I can't throw a football.

No link between MMR vaccination before age 2 and autism, large US study suggests: over 2.5 millions children. cidrap.umn.edu/childhood-vac… via @MissMeghanMack

A nationwide study of more than 2.5 million children has found no association between the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and autism:
“These results reinforce existing evidence supporting the safety of MMR vaccination.”

I think everyone’s who’s been calling Sen. Moreno a bad dad and grandfather needs to take a step back. If you don’t like him for his politics, by all means, that’s fair. But families are often advised to not get involved publicly when there are domestic violence and custody disputes going on, and especially when very young children are involved.
Plus, it looks like Moreno’s daughter actively asked for him to keep things private based on what he’s recently said. This is clearly an awful situation, and Max Miller sure seems guilty to me. I hope his career in politics comes to an end and, frankly, that he doesn’t have unsupervised access to the poor little girl whose collarbone he may well have fractured. Some things transcend politics, and this family really should be given some grace.
“My daughter lives in constant fear of this man,” Ohio GOP Sen. Bernie Moreno told reporters Tuesday about GOP Rep. Max Miller amid allegations that Miller assaulted his ex-wife, Emily Moreno, and their 2-year-old daughter. “She fears what this guy is capable of.”
Moreno says he has had to pick up his 2-year-old granddaughter “at the Bay Village Police Station because that's the place that we have to go to meet because I don't know what this guy's capable of,” adding that on one occasion, Miller also refused to hand over the little girl's favorite stuffed animal.
"Max would not hand over the little blue bunny. Literally held it hostage for 48 hours. This girl is crying at night because she can't sleep without her little blue bunny," Moreno said.
Miller has adamantly denied the allegations. cbsn.ws/4fZ0Edk

"Tariff Refunds Have Wiped Out Tariff Revenue Since May" taxfoundation.org/blog/tarif…
"US tariff policy has changed more than 50 times since the start of Trump’s second term.... That uncertainty suppresses investment and hiring and distorts pricing decisions."

The most alarming thing about this graph is not just the amount of change, but the smooth consistency of the curve. If this were a startup I'd be really confident about their future growth. Unfortunately it is instead the planet we live on.

As U.S.-Canada relations worsen, Michigan’s Sault area has lost an estimated $62.7M due to decreased crossings.
It’s bewildering, a state senator says. He recalls Canadians helping locals fix the grid after a storm: “This is our best friend in the entire world.”

On @CNNSOTU with @DanaBashCNN this morning. I said three things:
1. Political leaders are accountable for public health decisions, not the scientists who advise them
2. The vaccine-autism question has been studied for 25 years. The answer hasn't changed: there is no link
3. Right now too many kids are getting measles that vaccinations prevent, too many people are getting cyclospora that better tracking prevents, and ranchers are losing cattle to a pest we eliminated from this country in 1966.
Three outbreaks at levels we haven't seen in years. None of them are coincidence.
Stick around for the end — my view on COVID origins.

It's been four years since the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision opened the door to state abortion bans.
Now, a new study finds those bans are hurting women who aren't seeking abortions at all. Researchers found delays in miscarriage treatment increase the risk to a woman’s health and fertility and prolong the grief of a lost pregnancy.
@SarahVarney4 has more.
