@SenBillCassidy This is a dumb idea and will do nothing to solve the affordability of healthcare.

As a liver doctor who has treated patients with hepatitis B for decades, this change to the vaccine schedule is a mistake. The hepatitis B vaccine is safe and effective. The birth dose is a recommendation, NOT a mandate.
Before the birth dose was recommended, 20,000 newborns a year were infected with hepatitis B. Now, it’s fewer than 20. Ending the recommendation for newborns makes it more likely the number of cases will begin to increase again. This makes America sicker.
Acting CDC Director O’Neill should not sign these new recommendations and instead retain the current, evidence-based approach.

Hegseth: "I will just end by saying as President Trump always has our back, we always have the back of our commanders who are making decisions in difficult situations. All these strikes, they're making judgement calls ensuring they defend the American people. They've done the right things. We'll keep doing that."

Mike Green (@profplum99) and I rarely agree on anything, but this piece he wrote is a must-read for every person in business or finance.
One of those things you read and then can't unsee what you learned.

@larry_kudlow It is not more affordable. The real numbers don’t lie.

President Trump’s economy is cosmically better than Biden’s. But the story has to be told. Team Trump needs to get out there on a daily basis, with numbers, and make it clear how much more affordable life is under the Trump economy.

We hold this touching illusion that because somebody is intelligent and accomplished, it must trouble them to tell blatant and farcical lies.

WELKER: The president said the tariffs were gonna spark a manufacturing renaissance, but since he announced them in April the US has actually lost 42,000 manufacturing jobs. Are these numbers proof that the tariffs are failing? BESSENT: It's been a couple of months. We can't snap our fingers and have factories built WELKER: The economy did add nearly 500,000 manufacturing jobs under President Biden BESSENT: Most of the jobs created under the Biden administration went to illegal aliens

"Under pressure from the White House, Speaker Johnson called her and told her he had a lot of angry members to deal with. Stefanik, who was once close with Johnson, pushed back and told him bluntly, 'I’m the angriest one.'" Via @anniekarni
