CNN Data Chief Harry Enten Exposes Trump’s ‘Horrible’ New Poll
LOADING ERROR LOADINGCNN data chief Harry Enten said on Sunday that President Donald Trump is already making history as he approaches 100 days in office.

The Trump Administration Just Made Catastrophic Cuts That Will Affect You Or Someone You Know

Being inclusive is a good thing — it means everyone in the U.S. is regarded as important in public health research.

I also hope each person reading this will do something to help get public health research back on track in this country.

They've made themselves easy to find ... now let's boycott the lot of them!
I am old, sole caregiver to my husband of 48 years, and don’t have a lot of money to send to even the best of progressive causes. I would hit the streets, bunions be damned, but he cannot safely be left alone for hours at a time. And while I support the protestors, I don’t think that is hitting them where it hurts — yet. I try to support local business owners and to avoid big companies that have forced them out of business (looking at you, WalMart). Hitting them in their wallets should work as well on the little guys as it seems to be working on Musk.

I Visited Off-Grid 'Hippie' Communes To See If They Have Life Figured Out. Here's What Surprised Me Most.
I Visited Off-Grid 'Hippie' Communes To See If They Have Life Figured Out. A home made of cob and stone at Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage in Rutledge, Missouri (July 2023). During my week at Dancing Rabbit, people welcomed me into their homes, sharing “family dinners” and even a birthday party. Intentional communities tend to have incredibly low rates of crime — theft isn’t common when you know all your neighbors. Still, after my months of immersive research on intentional communities was done, I didn’t end up joining any of them.
