US Measles Cases Reach 30-Year High Amid Vaccine Concerns

News summary

Under President Donald Trump's administration, the United States is experiencing a resurgence of measles cases, with numbers reaching a 30-year high due in part to increased vaccine hesitancy and controversial leadership in healthcare by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has expressed skepticism about vaccines despite CDC warnings. Trump’s survival of a 2024 assassination attempt during a Pennsylvania campaign rally became a defining moment that bolstered his political stature and energized his base, with the president interpreting his survival as a sign of divine favor. On the international stage, Trump is reshaping U.S. foreign policy with assertive actions including military responses in the Middle East, trade wars, and strategic alliances aimed at maintaining American dominance in technology and defense, moving away from traditional globalist stances. Domestically, Trump's administration has rolled back subsidies for renewable energy under the 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act,' citing concerns over reliability and costs, while his trade policies involving tariffs have disrupted global markets and increased economic tensions. Additionally, Trump has influenced education and historical narratives by removing references to Black historical figures and minorities from government websites and issuing executive orders targeting race-related content in museums and research institutions, reflecting his administration's controversial approach to history and race issues.
