Trump's sniveling over elections that haven't even been held yet. Jeez, what a baby!

I believe the purpose of life is to be happy. Happiness is not guaranteed, we have to work for it. The most important way to do this is to cultivate concern for others. That’s how to take a wise approach to our natural self-interest.

"None of the 72 vaccines given to children have been tested against placebo "
The reality :
- No child is given 72 vaccines
- The ones they are given have been tested against placebo
Just endless nonsense from your HHS Secretary.

On behalf of Canadians, I extend my condolences to everyone in Spain who has been impacted by the devastating train collision near Toledo. We wish all those injured a full recovery. Canada is working with local authorities to provide support to any Canadians affected.
Thank you to the emergency crews working tirelessly to rescue passengers and care for the survivors.

Instead of focusing on things that could actually unite Albertans—like improving health care, education, and affordability—Danielle Smith has decided to double down on division and anger.
Thumping defeats in her separation referendum and in Calgary-Shaw should have been a wake-up call for the UCP, but instead, they are choosing to reignite culture wars on things like flags and DEI.
Albertans are smart. We can all see that the UCP is trying to distract from their failed record, and we're all fed up with it.

Billionaires in California are spending $333 million to wage a war.
Against what?
Homelessness? No.
Cancer? No.
Child poverty? No.
They’re waging war against a 5% billionaire wealth tax.
They’d rather poor kids with cancer die than pay a little more in taxes. That is obscene.

Corporate greed is Microsoft making $134 billion in profits last year, receiving $19 billion in tax breaks under Trump, paying a lower federal income tax rate than a nurse and getting rid of 60,000 workers.
“Corporations will create jobs if they get tax breaks” is a total scam.

No surprise. Trump just endorsed Netanyahu.
Together, they want never-ending war in the Middle East. More death. More destruction. More genocide.
On November 3, we must end Republican control of Congress.
We must stop all military aid to Israel.

Nigeria 🇳🇬 has recorded over 10,000 diphtheria cases this year.
Diphtheria.
A disease with a vaccine that's been around for 100 years.
That's not a medical failure, it's a delivery failure

I would like to thank all those who have prayed for me in recent days. I wish to express my particular gratitude to the doctors, nurses and all the staff of the Gemelli Hospital. This experience has made me feel particularly close to all those who are living with illness or infirmity. Now that I have overcome this delicate phase I will gradually resume my activities, always with God’s help and your prayers.

The US is on track to lose its measles elimination status next month, 26 years after earning it.
Turns out "Make America Healthy Again" was referring to 1999.

You don’t control the outcome, only your effort. You don’t choose their opinions, only your actions. You don’t decide whether it hurts, only what it means.

We will be rallying for Canada until the very last minute. Thousands of volunteers have been knocking on doors all weekend and will continue until the polls close tomorrow.
Thank you to everyone who has been fighting for Canada. We will never stop.
Tomorrow is the last day to make your voice heard in this referendum.
YES to Canada, NO to the rest! 🇨🇦

On our way to Texas for Fighting Oligarchy rallies in Amarillo, El Paso and Houston.
Musk is spending $190 million to try to buy the U.S. Senate election here.
Thanks Elon for making it clear to Texans exactly what oligarchy is.
