On four separate occasions, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Health and Human Services secretary, has suggested that the measles outbreak in Texas, which is now over 500 cases, is beginning to subside and grow more slowly. But a review of state data indicates there’s no decline yet in the pace of cases.

Vaccines do not cause children to have autism. Vaccines cause children to be able to grow up to be adults, because children can stay alive instead of die from vaccine-preventable diseases like measles. Also: autistic children are delightfully amazing and we love them. ❤️

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Trump’s chances of uniting developed nations into a solid front against China’s unfair trade practices is zero now. He has done nothing but chase other countries into China’s loving arms. Trump is the new world bad guy to countries that used to be our friends.

The Trump administration is going to look even more incompetent (if that is possible) if they can’t bring back to America someone they are paying another government to hold for them for a specific period of time.

The House is voting on the Save Act tomorrow Thursday April 10th. If you haven’t called your reps yet, do it early in the morning. This bill could potentially disenfranchise 69 million women who go by their married name. THIS IS VOTER SUPPRESSION. TELL YOUR REPS TO VOTE NO.

Not one reporter asked about the Executive Orders targeting Chris Krebs & Miles Taylor during today’s Cabinet press conference. Not one. A president using DOJ to punish those who spoke out? That’s banana republic territory. I waited. The question never came. Why? Has the fear already taken hold?
