What are these people so afraid of?

The demolition of the federal system for evaluating and recommending vaccines is going to test the ability and willingness of states and civil society to do the right thing

Great job, Donnie! 🙄🙄🙄

Wow! The Supreme Court basically just said, if you want to do racial gerrymandering, have at it.

Let’s be clear, what Texas did was racial gerrymandering, plain and simple. SCOTUS just opened the floodgates.

We’ve posted a lot lately about CDC denying reasonable accommodations to disabled employees -- e.g., telling a paraplegic person who normally teleworks to report to the office immediately or use leave.

Yes, that’s really happening.

Let’s talk a bit about why everyone should care.

Egg producers suspect bird flu is traveling through the air.

After a disastrous Midwestern outbreak early this year, we tested that theory and found that where the wind blew, the virus followed.

Vaccines could help, but the USDA hasn’t approved them.

This highly contagious "winter vomiting disease" is surging across the country Norovirus can cause extreme cases of vomiting and diarrhea.

We all know it's soup season, but did we also know it's 💩season? Norovirus causes 🤮 and 💩 and cases rise in the winter. It's transmitted the "fecal-oral" route -- that's what you think.

🙌 Wash your hands, people!

Ya well, Admiral Bradley should heed the words of Mark Kelly and others: you do not and must not obey illegal orders. But I guess he preferred witnesses/survivors to rule of law. They are all culpable.

Are you surprised Chris? Force a vote? These people are malicious, heartless and most certainly do not care about the American public.

ours is going from $982 a month—which we already couldn't afford—to $3200+. We are married, two independent business owners, 55. No children. Non-smokers or drinkers. Yoga goers. We live in a rural area and if we get a cheaper plan, no practitioners in our area will take it.

An update on the fight over health insurance premiums:

Later this month, Senate Democrats will force a vote on this - one last chance for GOP to do the right thing.

Today is the international day of persons w/ disabilities. Recognizing disability as a universal human experience is essential. Traveling has emphasized to me the interdependence that we have not only w/ those in our communities, but those around the world & across history. #IDPWD

Mr. Mamdani, can we get organizations like The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children involved? The regime is being led by a possible child trafficker and parents deserve answers (and their children returned!)

My statement on FBI request for interviews.

Dr. Nirav Shah, who served as the C.D.C!s principal deputy director for two years before resigning this year, called Dr. Abraham "unqualified" for the post and said when he learned that he had been appointed, "My jaw hit the ground." "A large part of the principal deputy's portfolio is emergency response," Dr. Shah said. "Delayed notifying of the public of at least two pertussis deaths is not just unacceptable, it's shameful," he added.

C.D.C. Quietly Appoints Doctor Critical of Vaccines as Second in Command

Last year’s flu season was quite bad, and as flu cases surged, Louisiana Surgeon General Ralph Abraham forbid the health department from promoting flu vaccines!

Lucky for us here at CDC, Abraham is the latest grifter to be appointed to leadership as the new Principal Deputy Director at CDC 🆘🤢

I know we’re programmed to shop. It’s easier for us who are always in poverty to do this whereas others have become accustomed to just clicking buy whenever they want to watch or play or eat something.

ICE is using a new app called Mobile Fortify to scan people's faces and determine their immigration status.

The government's use of biased, unreliable facial recognition tech to supercharge its mass deportation campaign endangers all of our rights.
