NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got. My column: enterprise-sharing.ft.com/redeem/75e5e3d… And some utterly damning charts. 1) at *every* point on the income distribution, Americans live shorter lives than the English.

Believe it or not, in the years 1950-1951, the A. C. Gilbert Company distributed the Gilbert U-238 Atomic Energy Lab, a toy kit allowing kids to make nuclear reactions at home using actual radioactive material. It was taken off the shelves in 1951 [more: bit.ly/2BTzsZW]

10% of Trump supporters make 90% of the noise. The enablers make the most noise, because it's become their livelihood. But make no mistake, the smart RW donors and true GOP strategists know two things most about Trump - he can't win a general election, and he can't be trusted.

Finally about to find out;
