The value of a child’s life doesn’t compare to the value of a misguided, misinformed, manipulative and biased vaccine policy, does it? Even when he’s wrong, RFK Jr is never wrong.
Just as praying will not help prevent mass shootings, neither will praying help to prevent willfully unvaccinated children from dying of something as silly as measles. But come on... let us pray.
ARE YOU FOLLOWING THE MILLIONS OF PROTESTERS IN ALL 50 STATES? All of this is relevant to how the lunatics are running our country into the ground and children are dying because of a cellar dweller spreading misinformation.
The 🟧🤡 and his rich thugs are doing THE BIGGEST HEIST IN HISTORY AND WE WILL ALL PAY FOR IT SOME WITH THEIR LIVES! #plutocracy #oligarchy #project2025 #autocracy
#fdic #treasury #marketcrash2025 IS OUR MONEY in the BANK SAFE?!
And I guess the parents thank God the children are now in a better place. I cannot believe these communities are not running to get all of their kids vaccinated.
Measles in Trump's America:
1
The US govt is no longer science-centred
2
A lot of Americans lack science
3
Superstition & propaganda leads to HEALTH failure
4
Lack of vaccination causes disease spread
5
Measles leads to complications & death
6
The #RFK & TRUMP regime is oblivious
7
Disease escalates
Trump has killed the economy; is killing our commitment to science-based healthcare; and will be killing us. When will the GOP stop kissing the ring and stand up for us?
And yet we continue to listen to that MORON who does not have any medical expertise…he wasn’t even a good Lawyer!! Oh the stupidity to let our children succumb to a totally corrupt and incompetent administration. This MEASLES RAMPAGE CAN be contained and controlled with a vaccine 🤬😡
They cannot say they weren't warned. When the outbreak occured here in 2019, it spread rapidly by a traveller to the Pacific islands and killed off 3 generations of children in one family. Measles can kill and or leave a child brain damaged.
👆🏾👇🏾”Última hora: Un segundo niño ha muerto de sarampión en el oeste de Texas en medio de un brote en aumento. Es la segunda muerte confirmada por sarampión en una década en Estados Unidos.”
Their friends (probably): “Sure, it’s bad you lost your kid to a preventable disease like measles, but on the positive side RFK Jr will be at the funeral! Congrats on that.”
RFK, Jr.’s cousin called him a dangerous predator and obliquely blamed him for his own brother’s addiction to the drugs that would eventually kill him. Why don’t people listen to those who know these monsters best?! On that note, everyone should watch this: https://youtu.be/j-_o69AAAeQ?si=N3oa2YJsRSnP8GSH
A second child has died UNNECESSARILY of measles in West Texas. That child would be alive today if they'd gotten the safe, doctor recommended, and universally available vaccination. Including that one word, "unnecessarily," in your headline could potentially save lives, NYT!
The HHS and all other agencies underneath it have stayed almost silent. Where’s the surgeon general? This administration is an unorganized shitshow. You’ve heard little to nothing from them about the outbreak, but they’re quick to publicize the mass firing of necessary public health professionals
To all who attended a 50501 Rally around the U.S. and world yesterday, please hear me. The information I have is the sum-total of the signs are crying out for but still missing.

JFK Jr. and republicans are killing children in America. They themselves are fully vaccinated yet they keep spreading conspiracy theories about vaccines. It’s very sad that there’s no laws in America to prevent this from happening in 2025.
I’m sure that mother said…. It was God’s will and they double down on anti Constance because it only harms your immune system and cause cancer 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
I feel sorry for kids or those that can't due to medical reasons. who didn't "have a personal choice" to get vaccinated or not. They're the true victims of science deniers, conspiracy theorists, and misinformation.
Getting vaccinated for a disease that can kill your child or others should NOT BE OPTIONAL! Either get your child vaccinated or keep them isolated from everyone else!
The 8-year-old girl died early Thursday morning of “measles pulmonary failure” at a hospital in Lubbock, Texas, according to records obtained by The New York Times. It is the second confirmed measles death in a decade in the United States. -
#MAGA Please vaccinate your children for your own sake!
I'm sorry but some people are simply too stupid to live in society. With the simple treatment known as a vaccine, allowing this to happen should at least be charged as manslaughter.
#WethePeople hold RFK Jr., the GOP senators that confirmed him & Trump responsible for these deaths.
When #Truth no longer matters, well-established science is rejected & facts are replaced with propaganda for personal/political gain, there are tragic consequences.
PEOPLE OF TEXAS - IF YOU LOVE YOUR CHILDREN PROTECT THEM!! DO NOT continue listening to a HEROIN ADDICT with ZERO medical expertise or knowledge it WILL go badly and your babies will pay the ultimate price!
This is tragic and entirely preventable. It is incomprehensible to me that RFK Jr. was confirmed. He is a public health menace. He needs to be removed from his position immediately.
Another texass mom had her own “parents rights” ahead of her kid’s well being. Is this one also claiming she’d do it again? That suggests malice a forethought (aka murder)!
You are complicit shitbags who helped cause this to happen. Many children will die of measles because you sanewashed the election. Accept what you have done and resign. Then find a way to try to make up for it. Your sense of guilt is real. Shitbags.
This is just awful. People are taking the word of third-rate politicians over people who have studied medicine for decades. They're willing to let their children die rather than be disloyal to their hero. Cult? What cult?
Your country has one of the worst health policies in the world. People there d1e of flu, measles, diabetes, high blood pressure.
It’s more likely that latin immigrants vaxed more than your compatriots
This is sad but not surprising. Remember a Trump lies Covid lies and antivaxing propaganda lead to estimated hundreds of thousands of mostly avoidable deaths. This is a political death cult. They simply don't care about life.
My pediatrician’s office will only let families delay vaccinations a limited time before telling them they have to find a new practice. Between that and some immigrants fearing seeking health care will get them on government radar (they accept Medicaid) the volume of patients has sharply decreased.
Ignorance and stupidity again. To think we all but eradicated this virus to now allowing it to resurge is mind boggling. All for a warped belief that vaccines are not safe. Come on parents what is more important to you a stubborn stance or a living healthy child?
You can blame Trump and his administration and you can blame Robert Kennedy Jr since he's since those are the idiots to blame one needs to be impeached the other one should be charged with murder every child or every adult or teenager that dies in this country from the measles
This being unvaccinated bullshit needs to stop now! The people who are not vaccinated are putting everyone at risk. Stop the fucking nonsense and go get vaccinated! And get your kids vaccinated also!
The GOP led by Donald Trump and his denial of science continues to damage the county. Of course when you whole life is spent in luxury townhouses or on golf course your world view becomes very small. We are all living with this diminished mental and distorted view of the world.
You are SO wrong. Do you have a medical degree or did you do your own research? Red states have the worst health outcomes. Don't you Russian bots know how to do research?
TX..you keep electing fuckers like ABBOTT and your corrupt AG and idiots in healthcare that allow this fucking BS.. you kill kids with GUNS and now with lack of vaccines.. what family values is this..effing sick fuqs.
So totally unnecessary.. My heart cries out for the child..
Both my children are vaccinated and they are around 30.. and they are not autistic or anything related to that at all..
People will die under this administration. Trump does not care about the people of America, he just wants to rule as a dictator. Those that have allowed him to get to where we are at need to fight now for the people by telling the truth.
So sad! I know the parents believe they were doing the right thing for their child. My heart breaks for them… How have we lost the ability to rely on scientific, factual knowledge and information?

You have to pass a test to get a driver's license.
But any idiot can have a child.

Is this Harris’, Biden’s, Obama’s fault or Clinton’s emails?

MAGA
MEASLES
ARE
GREAT
AGAIN
MAGA
It is a modern tragedy how people are rejecting a medical miracle because of ignorance.
Both my children are vaccinated and they are around 30.. and they are not autistic or anything related to that at all..
Funny thing is, it’s their constituents and their children who will suffer.
Tell us again how the MAGA party loves children!?
