Trump wants to put a prominent anti-vaxxer with no medical qualifications in charge of health. Please vote to stop him.

This goes beyond just America, it could affect American aid for vaccinations in developing countries, it could also affect funding of vaccine development.
Millions of lives depend on vaccines being widely and freely available.

It was shut down in 1933 along with all other openly queer activity because voters and non-voters decided to allow Hitler into power.
“It is extraordinarily rare for a country to be able to reduce inflation without creating a recession, but the Biden administration has managed to do so, producing what economists call a ‘soft landing,’ rather like catching an egg on a plate. As Bryan Mena of CNN wrote today: ‘The US economy seems to have pulled off a remarkable and historic achievement.’”

On Friday, October 25, at a town hall held on his social media platform X, Elon Musk told the audience that if Trump wins, he expects to work in a Cabinet-level position to cut the federal government.Heather Cox Richardson (Letters from an American)
Unpopular rulings on #elections, #abortion, presidential #immunity, #guns & other issues — as well as the #criminal cases against #Trump, which will likely move forward if he loses — have driven down public #trust in #SCOTUS & the #justice system.
That decline may be hard to reverse no matter which candidate prevails — especially if the courts play a role in deciding the winner.

(via @rmondello)
TL:DW - Trump is far worse on Gaza, Trump is Netanyahu's preferred candidate. And there are other issues such as climate change where Trump is threatening the entire planet. Rich will get richer, poor get poorer and world will burn.

How Bad Do You Want It, #Ladies?
It is the ultimate #battleofthesexes in the most visceral of #elections. Who will prevail?
Why the Houston Chronicle makes endorsements: "Newspapers don’t endorse candidates. Editorial boards do. The editorial board is separate from the newsroom...We do it as a service to our readers and to our democracy, which cannot flourish without an informed citizenry."
The editorial board of the Houston Chronicle isn't afraid to endorse Kamala Harris for president.
