(Photo by Andrew Harnik/Getty Images)WASHINGTON — The top Democrat on a U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee panel Thursday slammed Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem for her handling of her agency’s funding and the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown.
Sen. Chris Murphy warned Noem that DHS is at risk of running out of its $65 billion in funding by July – two months before the end of the fiscal year – and therefore close to triggering the Antideficiency Act, a federal law prohibiting government agencies from spending funds in excess of their appropriations.
“Your department is out of control,” the Connecticut Democrat told Noem. “You are running out of money.”
reblog to be eaten by this thing
Saw some of this on BlueSky, but in case anyone needs it: CDC recommended immunization schedules, Wayback Machine-archived from 2024.
Birth to 6 Years Old
7 to 18 Years Old
Adulthood
Don't rely on Internet Archive either, download these as PDFs (you can do that from the "print" link on the archived page).
If you're a parent, tell your doctor that you want these vaccines on this schedule for your child, even if/when the CDC changes their recommendations.
If you're an adult, or soon to be, and believe you may have missed any of these vaccines as a child, talk to your doctor about accessing your vaccination record and getting caught up. Many (most?) states also have an online vaccination record lookup.
it's really funny that even people who support luigi mangione have like fully bought into the propaganda being pushed that he's the one who did it when he hasn't been convicted of shit and is extremely likely just some guy the nypd and eric adams could reasonably pass off as the person who did it to save face. That huge fucking perp walk (that shouldn't have even been legal to do) was to plant the idea in the public's mind that yeah, obviously this guy did it, why would they be doing this if he wasnt, and you all fell for it without even thinking about it.
babe. I know we’re all going thru a lot rn but I just wanna give u the heads up that sesame streets future is in jeopardy. hbo has chosen not to renew it for new episodes (a series that has been going since 1969) and the residents of 123 Sesame Street no longer have a home :(
Man, almost like Gavin Newsom is full of shit and fully made up that 80% of Americans are agaisnt due process and used that as a way to try to push the party further to the right, because he's proven over the past few months he is a right-winger.
He pulled the same shit with trans rights, saying it's an "80/20" issue against, when in reality it was only 80/20 when you exclusively poll not just Republicans, but Republicans who have never met a trans person (for Republicans who have, about 35% support trans rights which is still alarmingly low)
It's all bullshit. We need to stop listening to people with some of the worst instincts and intentions in the party.
