Ask questions.
Prior to the rotavirus vaccine, there were tens of thousands of hospitalizations per year.
Ask about the procedures to rehydrate infants, like, say, intraosseous infusion.
Then decide whether you want to take a politician's word or your doctor's.
Anyway, it's just a thought.
Y'all have a good day.
Well, howdy there, Internet people.
It's Belle again.
So today, we're going to talk about Hawley vs. Vance, MAGA Successor Edition.
The White House is reportedly furious with Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri after the senator engaged in a little bit of maneuvering that could be seen as him setting the stage for a presidential run.
It seems like the White House was unaware of Hawley's presidential ambitions or his new group until after the news broke.
Even casual political observers have noticed Hawley's shift to more populist rhetoric.
He's been talking about health care, particularly rural health care, and taking positions that are contrary to some of Trump's most unpopular positions.
It's kind of interesting to think about the idea that the Trump administration is so insulated from the pretty obvious moves that they were caught unaware by Hawley's positioning.
So, what was the move that has made the Trump administration so, quote, livid?
Hawley and his wife Erin are reportedly launching a new dark money group to promote and highlight anti-abortion ballot measures.
In other words, he seems to be actively promoting the Trump agenda of restricting women's rights and reproductive rights around the country.
The group has reportedly already put together ad campaigns and maybe even a Super Bowl commercial.
So, why is the Trump administration mad about this?
Because they know this was an example where the Republican Party, through Trump, decided to rule, not represent.
