A Children’s Health Defense crony who just presented a loony deck on thimerosal in vaccines with fake citations has…been hired to study vaccine safety at the CDC. Lysenkoism. Incompetents failing up. And yes: this is how much of a zealot RFK Jr is. (CNN reported on the deck. CBS on the hiring.)

Do they really think they can scare us with the word “socialist” when they are literally sending out men in masks with no warrants and no badges to disappear people off American streets? I know what I’m scared of, and it’s not a socialist.

New in PN: SCOTUS clears the path for Trump's network of global gulags "With one paragraph, the Court undercut lower court judges and consigned countless immigrants to be renditioned to a system of gulags.

My heart is breaking in ways I didn’t know were possible—but I’m holding onto outrage. Two U.S. teens were dragged from their home in SoCal as federal agents shattered windows, hurled flashbangs, & took their parents. This is cruelty. This is terrorism. And it’s happening on our soil. F*ck ICE.

RFK Jr. has just appointed another anti-vax liar to the CDC. Lyn Redwood, former head of the same misinformation factory that paid RFK Jr. to lie about vaccines, will now work at the CDC. Every day it gets worse. The U.S. government is subjecting Americans to a disinformation campaign.

And then this shit just came out. When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car. When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

One thing I really think needs to be hammered into “libertarians” & other right wing freaks is the cost of helping other people is almost always less than the cost of not helping them. Because we live in a society & we are all connected & you are SO MUCH CLOSER to being sick and poor than you think!

Not only will this likely result in hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths each year - in the most poor and underprivileged areas because it is eugenics - this will make us less safe at home as well and put us at risk for increasing disease outbreaks and increasing spread of infectious disease.

How about Democrats stop letting Republicans define any policy that they don't like (all policies that actually help non-billionaires) as "socialist?" (As they've done for a century now.) How about Dems run to their base, run to the next generation, run to their principles, run to good policies?

If people really find this to be such an easy conclusion, then Congressional authority should be easy to get. So why don’t they insist on a vote? They know this isn’t “progressive” resistance. They want to marginalize it as such because on top of this war being ILLEGAL, it’s also deeply unpopular.
