“Vote on thimerosal containing influenza vaccines” means they are planning to take away influenza vaccines from the most disadvantaged people. Thimerosal (thiomersal) is only in multi-dose flu vaccines. It’s not in single-dose, prefilled shots. It’s also been proven completely safe since the 1990s.

🚨 So what do we make of the story in Ohio this week that lawmakers plan to push a bill to ban all abortions, IVF, miscarriage care, and other aspects of reproductive freedom? 1/

Really think we are the point where everyone just has to fact check him in real time. “ACTUALLY, Russia was kicked out of the G8 for invading Ukraine by illegally annexing Crimea. And the PM of Canada wasn’t Justin Trudeau. It was Stephen Harper, who was a conservative. Wanna try again?”

I'm trying to imagine a Democratic president saying openly and proudly that he would be sending federal agents to target the 'Republican Power Center' in Texas, Florida, and Tennessee. We would be in the midst of a civil war before he'd finished saying those words.

A leader of the MN House Democrats is murdered by a Republican pro-life activist. Rather than condemning political murder of his opponents, Elon Musk spreads the conspiracy theory that it was done by Democrats. Journalists don’t need to use any social media site. But they really shouldn’t use X.

I lost my dad in 1973, my stepfather in 1997, and my 3 kids’ father in 2020 because of cancer. But this Fathers Day I’m grieving for the children of Melissa and Mark Hortman, who shouldn’t have to face this truth that right wing political violence, promoted by government leaders, made them orphans.

I've spent the last few months examining the +1,450 grants terminated at the NIH, including reading hundreds of abstracts. Many were studying how to solve or improve health disparities – not just identify or explain them. Some of the terminated grants (h/t to @scott-delaney.bsky.social + team)

RFK Jr’s ACIP pick, Martin Kulldorff, said one of the most disturbing images from the pandemic was a toddler crying about having to wear a mask. I see toddlers cry about everything all the time, and I found it far more disturbing to see refrigerator trucks full of body bags outside of the hospitals…

NEW: After firing expert scientists on the CDC's vaccine advisory committee, RFK Jr. has named their replacements. The new committee contains many figures known for spreading disinformation about vaccines and COVID including Robert Malone and Martin Kulldorff. This is bad.

To be in public office right now is to constantly ask yourself: How do I make sure I'm standing on the right side of history? There's a simple answer. The wrong side of history will always tell you to be afraid - the right side of history will always expect you to be brave.

Hot take. The government isn’t subsidizing university budgets. Universities are lending subsidized expertise to research and development that contributes to the public good. It’s called partnership.

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

Republicans must begin manufacturing evidence for campaign hot buttons before MAGA buys a clue. Innocent immigrants will be smeared with Trumped up charges, our government ledgers will be whited out and rewritten to invent fraud, and minority communities will suffer unfair scrutiny. Believe nothing.

Aggrieved whites pretending they only lost out because of "unfair advantages" to minorities is an old script. The Bakke ruling against racial quotas came after Allan Bakke was rejected by 12 different med schools. He sued the one that had a racial quota, arguing that and that alone kept him out.

This seems like a great day to remind Bluesky that Stephen Miller lived four doors down from me freshman year And our student council person asked him (and everyone) to sign a birthday card for our dorm’s janitor And he threw a tantrum and wrote an op-ed about not socializing with “the help.”

The wildest part of the Biden auto pen controversy is that Trump wants you talking about that instead of how his budget bill will cut $1.3 trillion from Medicare, Medicaid and SNAP to fund more tax breaks for himself and his friends.
