Bryan Adams released "Summer of '69" in 1985. A similar nostalgia-based song released now would be harkening back to the distant and bygone year of 2010.

“ProPublica’s reporting revealed these cancelled contracts were delivering essential services … and exposed the cruel and dumb AI formulas DOGE bros used to cancel contracts,” Sen. Blumenthal said. “Veterans and all Americans deserve transparency.”

The senators are calling for a federal watchdog to investigate the Trump administration’s killing of hundreds of VA contracts. Among their concerns: ProPublica revealed DOGE used artificial intelligence to mark contracts as “munchable.”

Lancet study reveals that vaccines have saved 154 million lives over the past 50 years, mostly infants, or 6 lives per minute. This would make the advent of vaccines the single greatest contribution to keeping babies alive. The measles vaccine has been the most significant, accounting for 60% of the lives saved due to immunization.
All that will likely change, thanks to Trump and RFK Jr. Not only are fewer people being vaccinated because of irrational and unfounded fear of vaccines, promoted by hucksters like RFK. The Trump administration's slashing of USAID and other international aid will also reduce vaccination rates among the poorest and most vulnerable children in the world.

A major landmark study reveals that global immunization efforts have saved an estimated 154 million lives – or the equivalent of 6 lives every minute of every year – over the past 50 years. The vast majority of lives saved – 101 million – were those of infants.
Vaccines are one of the greatest scientific success stories of our time. They have saved more than 154 million lives in the last 50 years — more than 1 life every 10 seconds.
Recent moves to strip funding from vaccine-related research are shortsighted and self-harming. As is the use of precious resources to revisit debunked claims of links to autism.
The best vaccine isn’t useful if it is not distributed, or not socially accepted. Vaccine equity and hesitancy remain great challenges. Globalizing antivaccine activism could become our greatest hurdle.
It is not time to defund, but rather invest in vaccines.
