President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to overhaul the childhood vaccine schedule in the United States. He says the change serves children’s best interests and gives parents greater choice. Many pediatricians oppose the plan, warning that it could leave children exposed to preventable illnesses including measles. They also point to decades of research finding no connection between vaccines and autism, directly contradicting claims repeatedly promoted by Trump and his allies.

In July, Donald Trump reportedly used a security ruse after a credible Iranian assassination threat. Television cameras showed him boarding the older Air Force One jumbo jet, but footage reviewed by the Guardian indicates he was moved minutes later to a smaller aircraft. The transfer allegedly took place through an airport catering truck normally used to carry meals and other preflight supplies. The operation concealed Trump’s actual location while presenting cameras with an apparent departure aboard the larger plane.
