"They’re surely not like the Stephen Millers and Kristi Noems of the world, or for that matter the JD Vances and Donald Trumps....But these normie Republicans have become the willing enablers of the cruelty and autocracy." This is the problem.

Elon's legacy ranges from gutting cancer research to setting in motion millions of deaths from starvation or disease. I'll be pushing for Congress to hold Elon & DOGE accountable—for every act of corruption, every disastrous consequence, and every law they have broken.

Medicaid pays for 64% of births in Speaker Mike Johnson’s home state of Louisiana. Yet Republicans are trying to slash the program and take away health care from 14 million people — all to give a tax cut to billionaires.

After my post on vaccinating my children when they were babies, I got asked to have ‘nuanced’ convos with antivaxxers. No. I’m not platforming lies that led to the drop in vaccines, sick children with lifelong impacts and dead children. Vaccines save lives and protect health. Period.

All of this TACO business is obviously funny, but honestly, chickening out is the only thing he’s got going for him. It’s good that he chickens out on bad ideas. What happens when he doesn’t? Is he going to nuke Greenland to prove he’s not a chicken? Mentally, he’s 5. A child has the nuclear codes

Congress must immediately create and pass a bipartisan, stand-alone, veto-proof bill appropriating emergency funding for a bird flu vaccine. To do otherwise will, with high likelihood (it's a 'when', not an 'if'), lead to the death to millions.
