Lead: Big Beautiful Bill Busted

Republicans in the Senate may kill President Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill. The bill passed the House last week but GOP Senators are not willing to give President Trump a pass for the bill’s shortcomings.

The bill is a comprehensive tax and spending package that is high on the President’s wish list. It extends the 2017 tax cuts passed by the first Trump administration, increases the child tax credit, and introduce deductions for tips and overtime pay.

There are some good nuggets in there but it is also a spending bonanza that could add $2.3 trillion to the deficit. Representative Thomas Massie explained it on Redacted last week.

Elon Musk criticized the bill as a disappointment, stating it undermines DOGE’s efforts to reduce government spending.

Covid Vaccine Nixed For Kids

HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced that “the COVID vaccine for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC’s recommended immunization schedule.”

This does NOT mean that children cannot be mandated to take the Covid vaccine. Each state sets its own vaccine schedule and can mandate the Covid vaccines.

Last year, this peer-reviewed study called for the halt on mRNA vaccines in childhood vaccine schedules due to lack of safety standards.

The most recent covid vaccine was not tested on children under 12. It was authorized in 2023 for young children based on extrapolated data, not clinical trials conducted directly in that age group.

This comes as a new strain of Covid has been detected in the U.S. It is being called “highly infectious” but the WHO reports that the “severity” is “low.”

Secret Service Crisis

Last week, two female Secret Service agents were caught on camera in a fistfight while they were supposed to be guarding the home of President Obama. Audio from the skirmish was released where one officer asks for backup before “before I whoop this girl’s ass.”

The Secret Service has not indicated if these women will be disciplined. The reporter who broke this story asks this important question about it:

“The incident is raising new concerns among fellow Secret Service agents and officers about the agency’s lowering of hiring standards during years of a major DEI push to add more minorities and women to the ranks under previous Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle.”

These women are supposed to be guarding an American President! Race, gender aside, where is the commitment and professionalism!? This is appalling.

 WHO’s Final Pandemic Treaty

The World Health Organization finalized and adopted its Pandemic Agreement but the U.S. is not a part of it.

The final agreement is a severely diluted version of what the WHO intended. Most notably, it is not binding and does not give the WHO the ability to usurp the powers of any given nation as the original draft would have. The agreement explicitly states that it does not grant the WHO authority to dictate or enforce health policies within countries.

The treaty does not require countries to waive intellectual rights and share vaccines and treatments as the original would have. This is because pharmaceutical companies pushed back on that, not world leaders.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services issued this joint statement with Argentine Minister of Health Mario Lugones today since both countries withdrew from the WHO and avoided joining this treaty.

“Withdrawal marks the beginning of a new path—toward building a modern global health cooperation model grounded in scientific integrity, transparency, sovereignty, and accountability. Our shared commitment is to cost-effective, evidence-based public health interventions that prioritize prevention, especially in children, by addressing root causes such as environmental toxins, nutritional deficiencies, and food safety standards.”

The Journal of the American Medical Association does not agree that this is positive. They say that the lack of U.S. participation weakens global health security, undermines equity, and jeopardizes America’s role in shaping future pandemic responses.
