There's a circulating rumor that no studies have ever compared vaccinated to unvaccinated children when investigating autism risk. That's simply false. Here are just a few of the many high-quality studies that have made this comparison—and found no link ⬇️

Gonna keep repeating this: 1) Fluoride added for dental health (which improves cardiovascular health, neurologic functioning, and more) is NOT toxic. 2) Water with naturally high levels of fluoride (not added, levels are much higher) can be a risk for toxicity. He is going after 1 and ignoring 2.

This is why #DEI support matters. Shame on politicians who strike it down thoughtlessly.

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’s public health picks—Kennedy, Bhattacharya, Makary, Nesheiwat—were put in their roles to dismantle science. Because the American political right views it as a threat to business. That’s the lesson they have taken from COVID.

It’s a trap: CATCH 22—if you register, ICE will deport you. If you don’t register, you’ve now committed a crime for the first time, and ICE will deport you. Trump doesn’t care if you’ve paid all taxes and followed all laws—ICE will deport you. apnews.com/article/ille...

Ohio's own Rep. Michael Rulli was invited to attend a public town hall in his district. He declined, calling it a "pathetic event." So Tim Walz showed up instead - and answered questions Rulli wouldn't. Read the full story below, and follow for more Ohio updates.

This sucks, but also means if you want coverage, contact your paper in advance of an action. Give them quotes. Send them to folks to interview. We did this for the NOAA protests and got wall to wall coverage for a week, with frontpages, opeds, and followups.

Japan’s stock exchange has momentarily halted trading for hitting a circuit breaker after falling 8% at the open. We are seeing a global financial crash in real time that will last until Trump rolls back these tariffs or Congress fulfills its Article I of removing tyrannical presidents

I listened to this twice to make sure Aaron wasn’t overhyping it. He was not. Trump in fact does come out in favor of putting American citizens in foreign prisons.

Amazing. Lutnick says they tariffed Heard & McDonald Is. to close a loophole. He thinks, to avoid a tariff, Australia would actually ship millions of tonnes of cargo 4000km south to the Antarctic, to an island with penguins & no infrastructure. These people have no business near government.

New — I spoke to the school principal of Sackets Harbor, NY, where ICE handcuffed and disappeared a mother and 3 kids (including a 3rd grader). It’s also the town Trump Border Czar Tom Homan calls home. Cook tells me about how the small town is taking on enormous power to bring the students home:
