Yep - there’s a homicidal maniac presiding over public heath and he’s readying for a slaughter. His murder of 230,000 Americans and 83 Samoan children isn’t enough for his blood lust. www.huffpost.com/entry/cdc-va...

"Proposed recommendations regarding thiomersal..." Ffs how many times do we have to have this discussion with these morons. 1. Most US vaccines have had thiomersal removed for literally decade+ 2. We need to discuss again the difference between ethyl & methyl mercury... From my old website:

“Vote on thimerosal containing influenza vaccines” means they are planning to take away influenza vaccines from the most disadvantaged people. Thimerosal (thiomersal) is only in multi-dose flu vaccines. It’s not in single-dose, prefilled shots. It’s also been proven completely safe since the 1990s.

Bisbee is a tiny artsy town (less than 5000 population) with a vibrant queer community near the AZ-Mexico border and a bunch of Border Patrol agents rolled up to Bisbee Pride this weekend and snatched people up right as the parade was about to kick off.

Check out this cool and totally random book on climate change I found on the shelf while out and about today that I've never ever seen before. You should buy it for your primary school aged children! (Genuinely. It's great, and @constababble.bsky.social did an incredible job. Buy it twice!)

I have one of the best jobs in the entire world. It's beyond cool to get to travel and meet everyone excited by the vision of public power and universal electricity for all. People's faces literally light up at the idea a better world is possible and they have a part to play in bringing it about.

I don't know if anyone has written about this, but the thing where Google's engineers have designed this software program to spit out text that simulates contrition, grovelling apology feels like something close to admission that they've designed a program they KNOW is fraudulent +are covering it up

If you're sending troops into cities for ideological and political reasons, that makes those cities occupied regions

Political scientist says: when millions protest, it’s not destabilizing — it’s democracy functioning. Portraying peaceful dissent as a threat? That’s a hallmark of authoritarian-style governance. The people know the difference. zurl.co/31cDH #StandUpForScience #NoKings

Let's all be very clear that ICE and regular cops refusing to identify themselves in any official or legible way is creating a situation that allows murderers and non-state kidnappers to successfully impersonate law enforcement. We had kidnappers do this in Philly this week in ICE costumes, too.

Anyone who has ever lived in LA county will not be surprised it was the sheriff's department that escalated

Before the cops in LA started escalating things for no reason it was funny how my main takeaway was how much people were looking out for each other in really helpful ways. I’ve never seen so many people with carts giving away free water, sunscreen, snacks, and masks to total strangers.

Seriously, MSNBC’s David Noriega and Jacob Soboroff were doing such great reporting from the main LA protest, from different spots, that they showed how law enforcement instigated trouble that just wasn’t happening.

This is the first act of violence I have seen today and, it is LAPD against an elderly man.

When you hear the whining about "police injured on duty" in LA today: the people actually listening to the scanners said LASD fired rubber bullets at LAPD so LAPD tear-gassed LASD. The protestors are gonna get blamed for it, but it was entirely self-inflicted.

In March, VA officials across the US warned that their cancer-tracking databases were no longer being updated. Officials in the Pacific Northwest noted DOGE had marked its contract to maintain a cancer registry for “immediate termination.” By @ericumansky.bsky.social‬ @vernalcoleman.bsky.social‬

"Documents obtained by ProPublica show DOGE officials working at the VA ... prepared an outline to 'transform' the agency that focused on ways to consolidate operations and introduce [AI] tools to handle benefits claims. One DOGE document proposed closing 17 hospitals — and perhaps a dozen more."

Right before Trump gets ready to speak at his vanity parade, police are using tear gas and pepper spray on LA protestors. There was NO violence to provoke this.

I’m heartbroken by last night’s attacks in Minnesota. There is no place for political violence in our country. My thoughts are with the families of Representative Hortman and Senator Hoffman, and with the people of Minnesota during this tragic time.
