Trump’s focus on demanding MX return 1.3M acre feet of water they ‘owe’ us, is a distraction . Robstown, TX is in extreme drought and water restrictions. Elon’s lithium plant is expected to use up to 800M gallons of water a day. The average family uses 300… news.bloomberglaw.com/environment-...

RFK Jr. is trying to force payments to these creepy Folgers commercial siblings for junk scams before your MEDICAID WILL COVER FIRST-LINE, EVIDENCE-BASED MEDICINE. This is worse than private insurance corporations cause now they’re not just withholding access to care they’re stealing from taxpayers.

This is a concession by the U.S. government that its “arrangement” with El Salvador is irrevocable. To me this has to be grounds to argue that the arrangement itself is unconstitutional under the Fifth and Eighth Amendments

Reminder as we watch measles rates climb in Canada that this is Poilievre's attitude towards vaccination during a public health emergency. MMR vaccination has long been mandated for health care workers. Would a Poilievre govt ban the MMR mandate in health care during a huge measles outbreak?

Trump's EPA just moved to reverse state and local bans on toxic "forever chemicals" that can lead to birth defects and cancer. So much for "Make America Healthy Again." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/apr/05/trump-pfas-toxic-forever-chemicals

The measles outbreak in Ontario is impacting more than 800 people, including the vaccinated. We need to be investigating why so many vaccinated people are becoming infected. Did they miss a booster? Is Covid damaging their immune systems? A well fitted respirator provides excellent protection!

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie). Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development

Trump said he was going to let Bobby jr go wild in public health. He is. This is the biggest public health catastrophe imaginable. If another pandemic arises we are all so screwed.

With no evidence, they accused this Australian man of selling drugs and refused him entry. He had a valid visa and had left the country to scatter his sister’s ashes. They sent him to Australia with no way to gather his belongings in the US. No due process for him means no due process for anyone.

The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services has repeatedly claimed: “If you’re healthy, it’s almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times.” That is dangerously false. www.medscape.com/viewarticle/...

Looks like the increased efficiency at CDC means that it’s just not available any more for responding to health emergencies.

Another primary reason we shouldn’t have social security beneficiaries be forced to go on X is because the platform not only reinstated the account of a person who shared child sexual abuse material on the site, it now pays him to be a promoted member on the platform.
