CNBC’s headline is journalistic malpractice. The rest of their report is even worse.

Key Democrats in Congress are, once again, vaguely opposing a war instead of forcefully opposing it on moral or ideological grounds. https://theintercept.com/2026/03/13/iran-war-democrats-schumer-jeffries/
Why Dems Keep Saying Trump Has “No Plan” Instead of Calling to End the War With Iran

By critiquing the war because Trump has no “plan,” Democrats are avoiding standing against the war on moral grounds.

MSnow: Please stop airing Hegseth's propaganda and prayer breakfast live. Edit it.

"In a puzzling social media post on Thursday, Trump wrote, 'The United States is the largest Oil Producer in the World, by far, so when oil prices go up, we make a lot of money.” Who is the “we?” Yes, he and his billionaire buddies are making out like bandits, but most of the world will suffer mightily.

Here we are, nearly two weeks in, and what Americans know about this war comes down to this:"

Shingles vaccine is a good idea if you are in the right age cohort. It has a good chance of preventing quite unpleasant attacks and protecting us from lasting damage (and from dementia. How cool is that?). However shingles is not caused by the measles virus but the chicken pox one. It rears its ugly head from its hiding place in our nerves. It's a nasty trick that herpes viruses have.
