I'm back to masking in public because I don't trust these fools. I never stopped in airports and in planes, but I'm now reviving it for grocery shopping, crowded events, etc.
Never stopped on planes, people are discussing and their is all sorts of terrible ick on planes that can be avoided by wearing a tiny pice of fabric called an n95 to assist in the prevention. Mask up and stay safe my friend..
I am so immune compromised that if I have to go out in public, usually a hospital or doctor visit, I will wear 2 to 3 masks and keep my distance from people as much as possible. I have been doing this now for almost 5 years. I haven't caught anything so far.
Federal workers are being asked to identify the statutes and regulations that justify their roles in their federal gov't jobs. I fear this will map out what laws the administration will seek to overturn or circumvent.
Is it surprising to anyone what RFK's agenda is? The warning was given to all by Caroline Kennedy. The Republicans on his confirmation committee just closed their eyes and ears and screwed us all. Even the doctor from Louisiana. Guess the oath 'do no harm' has no meaning to him.
Rachel, proof has surfaced that Elon and Trump manipulated election results. the Election Truth Alliance has found through data analysis that the election results were manipulated in all Swing states. And that there should be an audit of Nevada. https://youtu.be/6G8fu50VRXo?si=JFuJQbG1195rA5bM
Not to cast aspersions on those who suffer from drug addiction, but only the GOP would put a former heroin addict in charge of the HHS and somehow manage to keep a straight face while doing so.
The thing about diehard addicts is they don't stop being addicts, even when they stop a substance. Listen to him for 5 minutes and you can see a very sick person. He just transferred his obsession to other "substances". He won't change.
Just because you don’t have kids, don’t think that the transmission of diseases will not affect you, unfortunately for all of us it’s going to have a lasting effect sadly..
I blame this, and all the other cabinet appointments, agency appointments, firings, etc. on the misinformation that has been fed to Faux News and Sinclair Group audiences. Why did Biden not try to get Faux News labeled as entertainment, as is in Canada. Why are we so behind in doing this?
Someone please stop this. RFK Jr is out of a fucking Stephen King movie. He's a monster, a freak, and must NOT be allowed to do this to our people and our country.
Someone out there has the ability to stop this - FUCKING DO IT.
I am also concerned about the availability of vaccines. I am a senior and with the newest measles outbreak - it is being recommended that those having been vaccinated prior to 1957 receive a measles vaccine. I hope this will be available to us.
When the birth rate goes down even more they’ll be crying. You want us to have more kids?? I need good healthcare and good social services 🤷🏻♀️ oh yeah, and my husband needs to make 6 figures minimum, if you expect me to stay at home. Fuck off otherwise 🖕🏼
interesting how most of the courage is coming from women and seasoned veterans-they are the one's taking the bullhorns and pushing back-gov. hoekel- against this stealing of our "common sense"-republicans are finally feeling some heat and still chose to lie to their people reveal trumps true plan
treason-he betrayal of a trust : the offense of attempting by overt acts to overthrow the government of the state to which the offender owes allegiance.Penalties Death, Imprisonment of at least five years, Fine of at least $10,000, and Inability to hold any office under the United States.
beware-musk's team might have been planting fake evidence in emails, bank accounts, etc of people who stood up/standing up for democracy like chaney, bidens, raskin, etc.the hit list is going to happen-there will be false charges/arrests and johnson saying the voters expect this & want it
beware that musk is taking the heat for trump-we should be protesting his cabinet choices and ultimately trump and vance not just musk. if musk disappears-we still have a corrupt supreme court and all of the incompetent and russian loving cabinet members republicans voted in-
Terminate appointments of all cabinet of Trump
Impeach Convict Remove Trump
Arrest Trump and Musk, no bail, send to Guantanamo, do not let them delay or escape justice by use of money.
Even if our nation survives all of this. In 4 years we will be so much weaker for having gone through it. In health, wealth, and standing on the world stage.
And roughly half of us will do everything they can to deny any of it ever happened. Just like last time.
Exactly. No future elections will be valid because elmo and his starlink if there will ever be any. The "jokes" about a 3rd terms? They'll shred term limits.
How in the world do we get back to normal?
You know I always thought you’d write a book titled between the barn door and the bookshelf. Then it would have been about coming back from Covid. Now it would be about finding our democracy again.
I love all you do. Thank you 🙏
Is anyone surprised that he lied and didn’t tell the full story at his hearing? Sens. Cassidy, Collins, Murkowski and Rand, any comments? Sens. Cassidy and Rand as licensed medical doctors, how could you have even believed an ounce of what he said? You have violated your medical oath.
Every time I see something jarring like this I think “what the hell?”. Then I soothe myself and say “finish your homework and go to bed.” I’ve been getting a lot of work done lately.
“A house divided against itself cannot stand”- A. Lincoln…those words cut deep in today’s political climate. We are more divided than ever and in big trouble. Trump and his cohorts make it impossible to stand with this administration. Cannot believe we are here again. Midterms seem light years away
Scary times. This in itself makes me rethink about being a teacher. I am in my 60's, cancer survivor, with a compromised immune system. I vaccinate yearly for the flu, esp. Being around children daily. They sneeze w/o covering and still pick their noses and wipe on anything. 😫
It’s hard to tell which of these appointments were will do the most damage. Imagine what we could’ve had. Tax breaks for parents. Money for down payments on homes. A housing initiative etc…
I wish more people would point that out and compare to this disasters.
Yes...file this under duh...Rachel we love you...but don't just report...tell us YOUR THOUGHTS on what can be done (BY US) to help. You're wicked smart and we need you more than ever!!
If this monster makes it so my family can't get flu and COVID boosters this year, we are in deep shit. And if he blocks our toddler from finishing her early-childhood series, I'm going to implode.
Defunding medical research and innovations. It takes funding to develop vaccines. The Covid vaccines took a decade to be developed. We were fortunate so much work already had been invested when it broke out.
Tomorrow the neighbors one block north are having a get together for the retiring mail carrier. I really want to get a measles vax before I go but I don't know where to look.
🤔 you mean he LIED and wants to cause unnecessary suffering, illness, and diseases to innocent people. Many of the most vulnerable Americans, including children could die or become disabled. So Pro-Life of him. 🤬
Before this is over, Brainworms McRoadkill, Fuckface Von Clownstick, and Apartheid Clyde will be guilty of mass-murder.
There is only one just resolution...
Almost all of his appointees lied to get confirmed. They were literally going to confirm Gaetz even though every single one of them knew all the shit he had done. It wasn't until everything became public, that a handful finally caved and said they wouldn't vote for him. Morally bankrupt GOP!
What I don’t understand is why, when there is evidence of what was stated in confirmation hearing, and then he or whomever shows those statements to be lies, there isn’t legal recourse. This whole administration are inept and apparently lie just like the king.
Yes very true. I wish there was more legal recourse (like being charged with perjury in a court) vs impeachment which requires individuals who actually take oath to uphold the constitution seriously vs oath to a person in office. Sigh
Without life-saving vaccines, children will die, and desperate parents will rise up in revolt. If no revolutionary army emerges—likely bolstered by defectors from the armed forces—violence will erupt,1/3
Trump, Musk, and Vance could unleash their own militia, backed by the dangerous individuals they’ve already released into society, ready to act. Yet, the sheer numbers of the many will ultimately overpower these thugs.2/3
The Trump militia should soldiers refuse to fire on civilians, or most,
will be there, and they will be ruthless!
Democrats must prepare to support what’s coming—because it’s inevitable.
People will get slaughtered in the streets if they are left with no support from Revolutionary factions.
Thank you! I have fallen into a newborn sleep schedule. Can’t decide if my fever dreams are from lack of sleep or if I’m living in a nightmare.
Please tell me it’s a nightmare.
This is so frightening, especially for those who are immunocompromised. Some of us have never stopped wearing masks in public locations. Some individuals are losing hope for a cure for the disease they have contracted since Trump took a wrecking ball to research.
Tell us more about Musk’s armed, deputized, security militia who have access to the oval office and government offices? What if they clash with Secret Service, or the slumped over POTUS who eyed Musk’s little spawn with alligator eyes? What trouble could possibly be lurking?
Actions get attention
Take to the streets America it is how we won before!!!
Force a REaction
No more being passive watchers.
We have power in our Collective One
—“One for All and All of One”. The polls don’t lie about Trump’s & Musk’s ratings… both are down!!
Talk is not cheap. Words have meaning. Speaking truth has the power to defeat lies. Taking to the streets and taking action does not diminish the power of the spoken word. Take up your activism as you choose. I will use my words as I choose. Words are not cheap.
You miss read….i meant Trump/Musk words are cheap — not yours. Language always has power if it’s used in the right way. But it also has power when it uses misinformation as truth. Keep up the fight— i got you👍🏼
WHY? RFK cannot make these decisions. Measles can be an epidemic,life threatening. If he had scientific background and read the history of communicable diseases it would be obvious.
He is a total idiot. But that's what the Chump Administration celebrates- being completely unqualifed for one's job- from the "president" on down. Can our democracy survive? Only if the Judicial Branch holds. God Help Us ALL
Would someone please ask him how he’s dealing with the Texas measles outbreak and why after decades of eradication it’s back! #rfkisnuts @rfk-junior.bsky.social
Even from measles.. People don't think these diseases are life threatening..
Even flu.. Estimate 36,000 die from it annually.. Generally the young and elderly but like covid, not always that
America currently has bird flu, tuberculosis & measles outbreaks in several states. The HHS Secretary is an anti-vaccine conspiracy nutjob! 🥜Thoughts & prayers, you're going to need 'em! 😢
Oh, I also read that they have found a new strain of Coronavirus in Chinese bats apparently!
Your show tonight put it all out there. It’s gonna be wild with dueling armed Secret Service and Elon’s armed private security in the White House. What could go wrong?
+See Bernie. (Sanders) Fight Oligarchy!
He was in Omaha, NE 2/21!
Had 2 get a bigger venue/there were so many people!
Spread the news Join him!
Iowa City today.He said he&his team will be going 2 every corner of this country. He says Trumpisim won't be defeated inside DC, but by the people!
In the US, prior to 1963 (when a vaccine was not yet available) measles accounted annually for:
-550,000 cases (reported)
-400 to 500 deaths
-48,000 hospitalizations
-1,000 cases of measles-induced encephalitis (swelling of the brain)
And also important he will limit or overlook vaccines that are currently being sought. Before the public knows, the transaction will be declined and purchased from other countries.
The health crisis that is about to hit the US through RFK Jr.'s mismanagement of HHS is about to become greater and more deadly than the first Trump admin's bungling of Covid-19. That's not so much a prediction as a common sense observation.
These cranks can entertain stupid ideas precisely because people have spent decades getting vaccinated. They are living the good life thanks to other people being immunized.
Bingo. We have actual serious issues to work on, but these bozos want to focus on lies about vaccines causing autism and some kind of personal vendetta against anti-depressants.
FAFO. Let him. We won’t see the masses align until it hits close to home.
I’m an extremely immunocompromised person and need others to get vaccines for herd immunity. It scares me but some MAGA are still drinking the Kool-Aid
We walked into our pharmacy this week for the pneumonia vaccination late in the day. The pharmacist told us that they were very busy and there was a wait for vaccine shots most of week. Guess a great deal of people don’t agree with RFK jr on this.
These jackasses in Congress totally knew he was lying, but they just didn’t care. As long as they’re making Trump happy that’s all that matters to them. They deserve a special place in Hell.
Here is the problem. Yea. He won't take the vaccines. BUT he has control over the reporting system and all. So all he needs to do is start listing *Symptoms* of vaccine injuries and make them court litigation eligible.
The companies start losing money and thus stop providing vaccines.
Not to mention not getting reports of cases.. Remember if you don't test, then you don't have cases..
Public.. Us won't know where cases are to protect ourselves..
I'm afraid there won't be enough meds manufactured to treat people.. Like with covid.. It's a huge issue to get enough if it gets bad
They are still operating under PNAC doctrine. One of those operatives is to lower the population by whatever means possible. Since theirs voters are the stupidest on earth they will blow their base out of the water.
Good, we must all make these contacts often.. As new issues to bring up every day..
Call or email representatives often and post to dems here often..
Boycott anti DEI companies, big tech, tesla
Protest!
Gotta help save ourselves!
The Ninth Iteration of Project 2025, Russell Vought's "Unitary Executive Theory," is what Trump is brazenly executing before our very eyes. It is also the Theory the 6 MAGA SCOTUS Justices will use to catapult the USA into a full blown Dictatorship a la Russia. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/dangerous-vision-presidency
I Love Bluesky. It focuses, like a laser, the power of TDS and combines it with Rachel Madcow Propaganda and targets what's left of Leftist braincells and obliterates its target. DIOBOLICAL. 🤪🤡😁
The 'face of MSNBC' was there early #MorningJoe for RFK Jr.. Joe, a weather vane, the promoter of conspiracy theories and the hardcore MAGA[see voting record in Congress and how he earned his political stripes] is quoted as saying cable TV news viewers have the 'memory of goldfish.'
Whether it be mean-mouthing President Carter[RIP] saying he allowed nuclear weapons in North Korea or aided in Iran taking hostages, WMD, praising Palin, poor-mouthing Obama to the point he spoke of being a Trump VP, #MorningJoe, the owner of 29 hours per/week of airtime is omnipresent.
This was the 1 nominee that was clearly, in my view, not a fit for such a role. To me, an HHS Secretary should be a former executor like a governor or an MD. Someone with his views and background is alarming. I don’t care who his family is. Bad choice
Like you said the other night on your show how (t)rump wants to destroy $500 million worth of Covid test kids. In his mind..If you can't test then you can't have Covid. No need to stay home or seek medical care..now get back to the salt mine so you can buy my junk on line and Make Me Great Again!
Please, please get in touch with @briandeer.bsky.social He's the journalist who busted Andrew Wakefield and his MMR scam. Wakefield now lives in Austin, Texas.
RFK Jr. clearly has severe brain damage, no scientific knowledge, and attends daily Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. People are going to die because he is incompetent. Remove him now. We need qualified medical professionals.
When President Trump state he will withhold Federal funds from states who do not comply with his requirement…the states should withhold the funds going to the federal since there is no support.
This should be dominating the news cycle …who was the republican senator who is a doctor who gave along speech about how he would put him thru because RFK said that they would work hand in hand ?
We need another Luigi Mangione to deal with RFK Jr trying to kill us all. We need an army of Luigi’s to warn them to stay in line and stsy out of our healthcare! I mean this crackpot RFK killed a bunch of Samoan children by lying about the measles vaccination & caused their deaths & yet denies it!
PLEASE STOP TRUMP AND MUSK FROM HARMING AMERICA. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT PEOPLE. AMERICA DESERVES BETTER IN A PRESIDENT. AMERICA.... HOME OF THE BRAVE...LAND OF THE FREE. I REJECT TRUMP 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸♥️💟💙🇺🇸🗽🗽🗽🇺🇸
I’m sorry but I’m sick of people believing these asshats when they feed them bullshit in these confirmation hearings and campaign speeches. They lie. We know this. Stop giving them credibility by asking them questions to just get more lies
I don’t have the words to express my anger at the horror of jr. being in charge of the nation’s health. Have all of the Senate Republicans had themselves and their families threatened with violence?
The purpose of putting RFK Jr. in this job is to "Delete" healthcare and healthcare expertise in order to allow Trump to dictate health-related policies unencumbered by science.
Weekends are really bad for Democracy since January 2025. When Americans leave their government jobs on Friday at 5, the wrecking crew comes in. They spend the weekend guzzling energy drinks, eating take out pizza, and inserting themselves into “protected” software!

Get this useless fucker into a rehab center as soon as possible.
Take the world stage and punch a nazi.
You’re absolutely correct. He’s done absolutely nothing to deal with the compulsive behavior. He displays stinking’ thinkin’.
Most people use that caveat to excuse their lack of empathy towards children or parents.. I was just making it clear, that I wasn’t doing that.

I wish more people would point that out and compare to this disasters.
aghast at the acceptance of it.
And each year's flu and COVID boosters have to be approved every time.
He's such a douchecanoe.
a) Bring an impeachment motion in the GOP-controlled House. Pass it.
b) Hold a trial in the GOP-controlled Senate. If 2/3 vote to convict, he's out.
The problem is the GOP-controlled part.
Make sure your children are vaccinated. NOW.
Vaccines will be extremely limited or completely unavailable in the United States in months or weeks or days.

Was a quid-pro-quo tor dropping out and endorsing Trump.
If that doesn’t bother people, then they are so normalised to corruption that they are beyond help.
It's wild how many people agree with him and want to get rid of MMR vaccines. I guess when their kids start dying then they'll care?
Even flu.. Estimate 36,000 die from it annually.. Generally the young and elderly but like covid, not always that
He'll kill this project

-400 to 500 deaths
-48,000 hospitalizations
-1,000 cases of measles-induced encephalitis (swelling of the brain)

Not a good idea.
Both seem like existential issues that many don't seem too concerned about.
That's what worries me.
