Roseberg, Oregon PD removing June 14 flyers #NoKings

Pancreatic cancer vaccine works? newatlas.com/cancer/pancr... I don't believe in any form of a biblical, beneficial god, but I'm praying this will prove true.

I just learned from a podcast that the last morning on the Titanic, Captain Smith decided to cancel a lifeboat drill in order to have an extra-long church service instead. And fam that is kind of similar to what it’s like to be a scientist under the rule of RFK Jr.

The life-saving COVID vaccine was developed because of federal research investments at a Mass-based company. Disbanding HHS’s COVID advisory panel and targeting Moderna is yet another baseless attack on Massachusetts and example of RFK Jr’s incompetence. Vaccines work. RFK Jr should resign.

For the first time in ages, I went on "X" to see how the assault on a US senator was going down. I scrolled past 65 posts before it appeared. It came up twice in 150 posts. (Then I stopped counting). If X was my source of news - as it is for millions of people - I'd barely know it had happened.

I mean, do we want vaccines in the US or don’t we? Ask your elected officials, because that’s what is at stake while they faff about in seersucker suits.

OOPS: Attorney for Proud Boys in their lawsuit against DOJ may not be allowed to practice law because of a prior felony conviction he appears not to have disclosed, according to the magistrate judge handling the case. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Damn right!! 👊

The FBI agent at this press conference just said they arrested someone who was providing masks and face shields to protesters. Didn't realize that was a crime.

That’s not what the military is supposed to do. That’s called a military coup.

Seems worth noting that Noem's story is that "no one knew who" Padilla was. Hmmm. You're in CA with US marines in LA. CA.... I think two senators? You don't know what one of the state's two senators looks like?

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety. It's our job.

Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciary’s subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has “oversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.”

A little more on RFK's new vaccine committee: Malone - claimed vaccines cause AIDS Kulldorff - promoted mass COVID infection Meissner - opposed vaccines and masks for kids Pebsworth - worked at antivax nonprofit Levi - FL Surgeon General cited his paper when recommending not to get COVID vax

"He has claimed that millions of Americans were hypnotized into taking the COVID-19 shots. He’s even suggested that those vaccines cause a form of AIDS. He’s downplayed deaths related to one of the largest measles outbreaks in the U.S. in years." Susan Collins did this. Never forget. #MEpolitics

Excellent conversation. It would be so wonderful if we could be spending our time building a safe and productive future for future generations. @petebuttigieg.bsky.social @hcrichardson.bsky.social #artificialintelligence #policy #democracy #education #climate #stewardship

A single predator drone costs taxpayers $25-70m. Imagine what you could do for your community with that money.

Seeing RFK Jr.’s selections to replace the qualified scientists that he fired from ACIP, I very much doubt that the U.S. will have ready access to COVID19 and flu vaccines for 2025. And it could be even worse than that. Bill Cassidy is to blame for voting to confirm RFK Jr. He’s a disgrace.

Please make sure you do the following as quickly as possible, especially if you are immunocompromised: 1. Get every vaccine you need 2. Buy some high-quality masks (KF94, KN95 or N95). These fools that Kennedy just appointed are going to cause the reemergence of vaccine-preventable disease.

We are disgusted that RFK Jr. just wiped out the entire ACIP and replaced its members with people who have pushed dangerous misinformation, including critics of lifesaving vaccines. This is not reform. It is sabotage.

This is a post from Monday from Senator Bill Cassidy (R). Aged like milk on a summer day in Tucson. As I said then, he has no control over RFK Jr. That’s been proven once again. The people RFK Jr. has appointed to ACIP so far, with one exception, know nothing about vaccines except suspicion.

Jesus Christ... the *entire Fulbright Board* at the State Department just resigned rather than cooperate for a second longer with this monster and his patently illegal schemes.

BREAKING: A few minutes ago, a vehicle of three people was rammed by a truck belonging to federal immigration authorities in Boyle Heights, CA. According to security footage shown to me, they deployed chemical munitions & detained the driver at gunpoint. All are US citizens according to the wife.

$160 billion in new spending on building jails, hiring more ICE 'agents' to carry out kidnappings & flying people to torture prisons. For comparison, the 2024 NIH budget, which funds essentially all US medical research, was $47.1 billion. Funding racism instead of research.

There are more US troops in L.A. than Iraq and Syria 🙄 IS IT THE TACOS? abc7.com/live-updates...

This happened live on the show today. Independent journalist Jorge Ramos caught up with a pregnant U.S. citizen who told us she was roughed up and arrested by federal agents during a detainment near Los Angeles. Watch!

Thinking today about the Titan submersible and the failing DOGE attempt to techbro the federal government.

NIH scientist: Right now, cancer patients are not receiving novel cancer treatments and are being cut off when their only other option is hospice care—and that is the cost of what is going on due to this politicization of biomedical research.

We feed you. They hunt us.

Oh no 😞 Stay safe please Squamish, #BC apple.news/AJAsp_3LbSCy...

Reminder: The pending tax and budget bill would *vastly* expand the enforcement and detention capacity of the federal government. What's happening sporadically in cities like Los Angeles would be carried out on an unprecedented scale.

"Two young men from DOGE, one who dropped out of college, commandeered the offices of the NEH in early April and unilaterally decided, without consulting any of the experts inside the agency, to cancel 1,500 grants"

YESSSSSSSSSS. Thank you, @murray.senate.gov for strongly standing up for American science, medical research, and cures. 👊🇺🇸💅🔥 Thanks for supporting the #NIH ‘ers who want to continue the best research establishment in world history and save it from Trump. 🧪 Please watch and share, everyone!

RFK Jr justifies firing scientists on the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee due to “conflicts of interest.” Yet RFK Jr made almost $100K a year from anti-vax lawsuits and almost $90K a month from his anti-vax nonprofit. The person with the biggest conflict of interest at HHS is the one leading it.

BE AWARE: The US has another bond auction scheduled 6/12/25, $22B of 30Y bonds. Results will be extremely important to YOU! RATES are climbing! Is this too BORING to be of interest to YOU? The results will be hugely impactful to YOU even if YOU ignore it! REALITY can BITE YOU! #USDemocracy
