Democrats score another big Senate recruiting win Former Sen.

Kennedy Jr. speaks behind President Donald Trump during an executive orders signing event in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington, DC, on May 5, 2025. (Alex Wroblewski / Getty Images) New data from the CDC suggests a grim back-to-school tradition emerging: In 2024, kindergarten vaccination rates declined for the fifth consecutive year.

At the end of December 2024, I discovered the most heartbreaking news about my supposed boyfriend. In hindsight, I should have listened to my gut. There were signs that he was up to something shady, but I was dealing with a lot around that time. I was battling some health issues, so I was always in and out of the hospital.
