This was today… Sotally tober… NYT clearly way off base…

I urge everyone to read Unbreaking’s new page on everything the govt is doing to destroy & diminish medical research funding. It’s the best thing I’ve read on this topic: @lizneeley.bsky.social & co have such done an incredible job. unbreaking.org/issues/medic...

730.no @730no cyborg eller mushrooms? A drug addict was given inappropriate access to our personal data and authority to fire thousands of federal workers indiscriminately. An example of this corrupt administration intention to destroy the country.

“Gold standard science” The top tier medical journals are “corrupt” Our report with many fabricated references had “formatting issues”

RFK Jr.’s ‘Make America Healthy Again’ Report Cites Fake Studies Was it AI, general incompetence, or malicious dishonesty from Trump's fringe health experts? gizmodo.com/rfk-jr-s-mak...

“If you’re among the vast sea of Americans who remain enthusiastically grateful for vaccines, the time for pushing back against Kennedy isn’t later, when he’ll likely be ratcheting up his program to “reevaluate” longstanding pediatric vaccines. It is now.” www.thebulwark.com/p/rfk-jrs-wa...

1/2 Buried in the GOP’s budget bill is a dictator clause—a sneaky provision that would let Trump ignore court orders without consequence. It guts enforcement of contempt rulings unless plaintiffs post a bond, making the judiciary toothless. This would crown Trump king. 🔗 tinyurl.com/Crown-Trump

@jaketapper.bsky.social when did your research begin for Original Sin? If it was after the debate then I think folks equating you to Woodward sitting on info to make money on a book are doing false equivalance either dishonestly/willingly or unknowingly (fault logic).

The Free Speech Administration throwing down arguably the biggest sledgehammer against free thought and association in my lifetime.

Someone should just bribe him to resign

We will share and discuss the latest ME/CFS & Long COVID genetic findings in a free webinar on 6 June, hosted by @actionforme.bsky.social. Speakers include Steve Gardner, Audrey Ryback, and Sonya Chowdhury. 🎟️ Register: precisionlife.com/webinar-upda... #MECFS #LongCOVID #precisionmedicine

A small part of me believes (well hopes) that somebody somewhere in the middle of this craziness is recording/making notes of all of this. Because we all know that they are fundamentally breaking the law. Completely breaking with best practises and fundamentals of public records.

It’s generational damage

National Review Condemns Trump for Acting Like a ‘King’ With ‘Ominous Threat’ https://twp.ai/4imvbJ

On average, 300 Americans are still dying each week from COVID19. A major part of the reason is that they are not vaccinated. Another is they’ve been led to believe that COVID19 isn’t serious and don’t seek care or test for it.

RFK Jr. is now taking COVID19 vaccines away from people who are pregnant. Infection during pregnancy increases the risk severe disease and potentially preterm birth. The CDC itself lists pregnancy as a condition that puts people at risk for severe disease. The science doesn’t support this.

We sued HHS and its administrator RFK Jr. for illegally shuttering the CDC office that turns over records to the public. We're going to keep pursuing public transparency for as long as it takes.

Our current president is severely mentally unwell, and the media needs to cover it now.

5 years since the start of the pandemic and it is frustrating that we still need to keep repeating: vaccines, masks, tests, and cleaning the air all play roles in reducing transmission. Wrongly claiming that any of these layers isn’t important is an anti-science stance.

"Kennedy said in the video announcement that there was no clinical data to support additional shots for healthy children" LIES. Examining more than 386,219 kids and teens, scientists have shown that #COVID vaccine reduces the chances of developing #LongCovid by 20% www.thelancet.com/journals/ecl...

Note to liberals: If you're enraged about RFK Jr. removing access to Covid vaccines you should also be enraged that Biden declared Covid over & made everyone stop caring about masks

“A CDC report found that among pregnant U.S. women infected with COVID-19, about 1 in 80 deliveries was a stillbirth — the loss of a fetus anytime after 20 weeks. That’s compared with 1 in 155 among uninfected women” Pregnant women need access to Covid boosters. TW for photos of Covid placenta:

Phang: We don’t need the Ten Commandments hanging in Texas schools. What we need is common-sense gun legislation—so the kids can live. If my kid goes to a public school in Texas and they can’t come home alive, I don’t give a shit about the Ten Commandments being posted on the wall.

Crockett: It is time for Republicans to start calling him out and start questioning his mental acuity, and whether or not he is equipped to serve mentally. We know when it comes down to his criminality, he is not qualified to serve, but this is just absolutely deplorable.

Wearing a mask is not “living in fear”, it’s adapting to reality. Covid changed things. It’s a multi system vascular virus that spreads through the air. Its killed & disabled millions. A well fitted respirator is one of the best ways to live your life while safeguarding long term health.

Rand Paul: "Somebody has to stand up and yell, 'the emperor has no clothes.' Everybody is falling in lockstep on this -- 'Pass the big beautiful bill. Don't question anything.' Well, conservatives do need to stand up ... if we don't stand up on it, I really fear the direction the country is going."

@nbcboston.com that was not a black Hawk helicopter at the seaport

Why did six House Republicans who promised to oppose Medicaid cuts vote for the "big beautiful bill"? It could be because the bill now contains an expanded "pass-through" tax deduction that would personally benefit them. Follow the money.

Anyone want to remind me that Cøvid is all good for kids? ... No biggy? Let's re-open schools and get back to the office? This ☠️☠️ 👇🏻👇🏻 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

If you want a covid booster (I sure do) this is FDA Commisioner Martin Marakay’s contact info. I think we need tell him how wrong he was when he said Americans don’t want the covid boosters.

This is terrifying.

Correct. The first booster dose proved itself via an RCT. Makary and Prasad didn’t care. They mocked and ridiculed anyone who wanted it. It was all a big joke to them. They are antivaxx, not motivated by data and evidence. youtu.be/LB2VRT3H-Co?...

"Trump is unique among the nation’s presidents in having no interest in presiding over a functioning govt, let alone building institutions that will survive his term in office. That's why the analogies pundits have tried to draw between the early periods of other presidencies fall entirely flat."

I realize posting this here is preaching to the choir. But after the Grok White Genocide thing & Ye essentially launching an exclusive Neo Nazi single on the platform... I felt motivated to write about X and how bizarre it is that so many people (news outlets, celebrities, politicians) use it

Phang: It’s time for federal judges to acknowledge that they have lifetime appointments—and that should give them the courage to uphold the rule of law, but also to put some damn teeth into the court orders they’re issuing. it’s time that we start seeing action from the judiciary. Grow some balls

Kristi Noem made an understandable error—she thought Harvard university was a dog.

“Vaxx and relax” was never a good strategy for Covid. The vaccines are great at keeping people out of hospital, but they don’t stop transmission and they don’t prevent Long Covid. Those of us who know this never stopped masking. With the US restricting vaccines, it’s time to mask back up!

Another quote from the MAHA Report that should set off alarm bells all over the U.S.: “Unlike other pharmaceutical products, vaccines are unique in that all 50 states enforce some form of vaccine mandate for public school enrollment”. This is because they PROTECT CHILDREN FROM CONTAGIOUS DISEASE.

The U.S. has officially accepted a luxury jetliner from Qatar as a gift, and slated it to become a new Air Force One. Experts say that overhaul could take years and cost hundreds of millions.

If the Yale School of Public Health can't figure out to wear masks/respirators to avoid covid, we are doomed. PH is the first line of defense. It absolutely must set the example! Without it, we stand 0 chance of avoiding the harms of covid and long covid.

Important story and 🧵 by @juliametraux.bsky.social that needs more attention. “On Tuesday, the Food and Drug Administration announced that Covid booster shots will be limited to people over 65 and those with pre-existing health conditions that would put them at higher risk of acute complications.”

The Republican bill is cruel and deranged. We need a groundswell telling Congress to vote against it. act.link/gi-faclm youtube.com/shorts/skMpN...
