For real tho…

RFK Jr. has long peddled the unfounded idea that HIV does not cause AIDS. This runs counter to the science. And now he’s acting on his fringe belief. This is dangerous.

Public Health DISASTER!

A Johnson County,Texas Deputy used nationwide license plate readers to track down a Texas woman who was seeking an out of state abortion. The reason as stated on the warrant” had an abortion-search for female” This should scare the hell out of all Americans. Big Brother is here. #ProudBlue

Unbelievable! Today, San Diego witnessed a government-sanctioned kidnapping. ICE stormed Buona Forchetta in military gear ripping workers away, then unleashing tear gas and smoke on the terrified community. Full on police state, fascism now used on American citizens. Stay aware. #OnYourSide
