Democrats urge Robert F Kennedy Jr to resign before testifying on health costs, vaccine policy and CDC turmoilUS politics live – latest updatesSenate Democrats on the finance committee called for health secretary, Robert F Kennedy Jr, to resign as he began testifying before the committee and faced questions about the turmoil facing his agency.“Robert Kennedy’s primary interest is taking vaccines away from Americans,” ranking member Ron Wyden, a Democratic senator from Oregon, said in his opening remarks. “People are hurt by his reckless disregard for science and the truth in this effort.

Trump’s domestic troop deployments aren’t about crime – they’re about intimidation | Moira Donegan
The president is targeting Chicago in his latest bid to assert authority over Democratic governance and racial pluralism“We’re going in,” Donald Trump said on Tuesday, when asked whether national guard troops would be sent to invade Chicago. The comment came as reports emerged that national guard troops from Texas – not yet federalized under direct presidential control – were preparing to deploy to Chicago in the coming days, in defiance of the opposition repeatedly and forcefully expressed by the Chicago mayor, Brandon Johnson, and the Illinois governor, JB Pritzker, both Democrats.The White House and the president’s allies have claimed that the deployment is a response to violent crime in Chicago. This is a lie. Crime in Chicago has dropped dramatically over the past decades, as it has in every major American city – including Los Angeles, where Trump deployed the national guard and the marines earlier this year, and Washington DC, where armed federal agents have patrolled the streets for much of the past month. The deployment of armed forces to American cities – serving at his pleasure even when they are not officially under his direct command – has nothing to do with “crime”, except insofar as the administration has sought to redefine the term to mean Democratic governance, racial pluralism or the presence of immigrants. There is no violent crime in Chicago, or in any of these cities, that federal troops can be usefully deployed to quell.Moira Donegan is a Guardian US columnist Continue reading...
