I strongly suspect that he is about to use data manipulated by unscrupulous and unqualified individuals to attempt to falsely show that vaccines are in some way a net harm.
He simply must be stopped.
This amount of uncertainty with such drastic consequences is not about fostering creativity or resilience. It is about creating fear, causing distractions, and gaining power. It makes people fearful, causes all kinds of health problems, and puts people in constant FFFF mode./2

I just can't emphasize this enough. I listen to people all day long for a living. EVERY single person I talk with fears being homeless +/or being without medical care. People do not function well in constant FFFF mode. 47's policies are ruining individuals and society. It must end!

Iβm encouraged that youβre running for @sagaftra.org president. Would you please talk with Pulitzer-Prize nominated Bob Hennelly @stucknation.bsky.social on @wbai.org? His morning show, βWhatβs Going On,β is about the labor movement, with a focus on healthcare every Friday.

As the #BrennanCenterforJustice says, the #Emoluments Clause is in the portion of the Constitution on Congress. Thus, #Congress must do something about the #Qatar plane sitch. Or, someone needs to file a lawsuit & ensure it moves quickly (so 47 isnt out of office by the time it reaches the court).

"Strategic uncertainty" = certainty of stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, hopelessness, helplessness, unwillingness to take risks, poor health outcomes, feelings of danger, lack of feelings of belongingness.These are heavy prices to pay to line billionaires' purses.

The cruelty & sliminess of the Republican party, & 47's ego, know no bounds...to limit Medicaid services though modeling has shown the effects of doing this, to have cuts go into effect when 47 leaves office so that he can avoid the negative consequences? Too much.

The extra-extreme members of the House Budget Committee voted "present" tonight so that the Medicaid-cuts-to-fund-tax-giveaways-for-the-rich bill could pass out of committee 17-16.
Tomorrow, flood Capitol Hill switchboards to voice your opposition to this monstrosity.

More medical & environmental research brought to us through Federal funding. So, Fed funding that would show how to prevent diseases are being cut at the same time as health insurance & Medicaid is being cut. Such a travesty.
