Lost my CDC contract after a visit from DOGE. I feel like I’m in the dirt (or TBH eating a pint of ice cream on a couch crying). But here’s the thing: Pushing people down—especially those with heart, purpose, and love for public service—doesn’t mean they stay down. It’s literally against their DNA.

NYTimes adding insult to injury in this tragedy. The “treatment” was for autism, which isn’t a thing, and was being done by someone with no medical training who charges cash for expensive bogus therapies. And now a 5-year-old is dead because of the grift.

The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Musk’s staffers. America, please stand with us—we are fighting to defend this country!

RFK Jr’s long history of conspiracy theories, reckless disregard for public health, and racist, crazy ideology make him among the most dangerous of Trump's cabinet picks. He is unfit to lead our HHS.

I love this update so much. To alleviate my pre-election anxiety, in late October I wrote 400 postcards to voters in #CA13 to help flip this seat. All the way from deep red Oklahoma to California…

Caroline Kennedy on her cousin Robert Kennedy Jr: “Bobby Kennedy’s views on vaccines are dangerous. But I don’t think most Americans share them. I grew up with him and I’ve known all of this for a long time and others are just getting to know him.”

Anyone else remember when Dr. Oz said that it was fine for 2–3% of schoolchildren to die? Yeah, he’s in charge of Medicaid and Medicare now.

Pay attention to Oklahoma. Bibles in classrooms isn't the big story. The same legal teams behind the seeding of Dobbs are driving a case to create religious schools fully funded by the public & they've already petitioned the Supreme Court. Understandably, everyone was focused on the election.

It was really disrespectful when Michelle Obama promoted some very basic healthy eating ideas, but RFK pushing raw milk and ivermectin while signal boosting vaccine skepticism is freedom and liberty
