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

Young people, please watch Harlan County USA. It's a documentary about miners' fighting to become unionized. These conditions in 1973, is what Trump and the GOP want for you now; to them it's the good ol days. Support union workers. Without them, we're all in trouble. youtu.be/6PfaE4R4eA4?...
