Turns out not being mad that a far-right hate influencer got shot is NOT a fireable offense if you are a teacher or professor.

1A wins again.

Thankful to live in NY! Was able to get my Covid vaccine without script from doctor. I’ve had students already tell me they are out of class with Covid. I’ve been masking all this time on campus!

Trump DOJ is now looking at ways to ban transgender Americans from owning guns. Worth noting that the Nazis did the exact same thing to the Jews. Also worth noting they have no plans to ban right wing white supremacists from owning guns, even though they commit a vast majority of all mass shootings.

BREAKING, from NY Playbook PM: New York Gov. Kathy Hochul will sign an executive order allowing pharmacists to prescribe and administer Covid vaccines to New Yorkers who request them.

Sesame Street will be putting a huge collection of episodes on YouTube starting in January 2026

This is a fantastic way to educate children

It’s a form of resistance.

Shows like Sesame Street teach love, tolerance, acceptance & more.

These lessons are crucial for the long fight ahead.

Fascism and anti-science movements always walk hand in hand because they have widespread ignorance in common.

CNN put together a clip of RKF Jr denying today he linked antidepressants and mass shootings, followed by a clip of RFK Jr last week linking antidepressants and mass shootings

RFK JR: We're not going to recommend a product for which there's no clinical data for that indication—is that what I should be doing?

Warren: What you should be doing is honoring your promise that you made when you were looking to get confirmed in this job.

It's great that states are forming regional public health alliances to ensure people still have access to vaccines. They should take it one step further & include distributing free masks & tests, installing clean air infrastructure etc. The best way to prevent outbreaks is with layered protections!

As a survivor, I can't think of a more fitting metaphor than a rapist creating loud noises with planes as a survivor tries to tell her story. I mean... just wow. Nevertheless, she persisted.

If the lack of data
makes it difficult for you to know
exactly how bad
the current Covid wave is,
just look at the newspaper
of record’s recent headline:
“Covid is spreading again
this summer,”
and remember
if they have to admit
the virus isn’t gone
this wave must be pretty bad.

Wtf

There’s no conversation I’m willing to have with people spouting lies around the COVID vaccine

Not only am I an epidemiologist who SPECIALIZES in infectious diseases, but my 31 y/o brother thought COVID was bullshit too until it put him in a coma for a week before killing him.

Trump and RFK Jr. to Ban Covid-19 Vaccine ‘Within Months’ A close associate of the HHS secretary claims the U.S. government will soon pull COVID-19 mRNA jabs from the market.

Covid has killed upwards of 20 million people.

400 million suffer from Long COVID.

It’s not over and is still causing serious harm.

RFK Jr and Trump plan to ban the Covid vaccine in the US.

Get your boosters now. Stock up on N95 masks & hepa filters. Protect each other!

There are lots of rumors flying around about what might happen to COVID vaccine access, but please note we still do not have any official news yet.

While we wait, there are things you can do:
1️⃣ Wear a mask to prevent COVID transmission
2️⃣ Push your elected officials to speak up about vaccine access

Covid no longer kills you in two weeks, unfortunately it does damage your brain, arteries, and immune system. Puts you at risk for stroke, heart attack , an aggressive cancers. It literally is the perfect predator because most of humanity thinks it is just a cold now.

God I love Mexico!!!

When Trump ordered the border wall painted black to absorb the sun's heat and make climbing harder, Mexico responded by painting beautiful murals on their side

In Families, Women Still Do Most of the Cognitive Work How can we reduce gender inequities in household labor?

Research finds solo breadwinners or men with higher earnings almost always took on much less cognitive work. But most women in similar circumstances still took on more cognitive work.

Pirro: Oh stop it!

I developed mRNA vaccines. RFK Jr is endangering US public health Katalin Karikó says the health secretary’s decision to pull research funding for the technology is akin to ‘dropping a bomb on the US’

Nobel Prize winner and scientist behind mRNA vaccine development calls out RFK Jr -- my version of this headline

www.thetimes.com/us/news-toda...

Dr. Katalin Karikó who won a Nobel Prize for developing mRNA vaccines responds to RFK Jr:

"When you are sick, you wouldn't ask for advice from a lawyer like Kennedy. You ask experts, your physician, for advice."

WE DON'T NEED NUCLEAR REACTORS ON THE MOON!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

🔴 THREAD: RFK Jr. just canceled 22 mRNA vaccine projects.

TL;DR: mRNA vaccines saved millions of lives. Ending these projects puts us at risk and leaves us unprepared for the next big outbreak.

Here’s what RFK Jr. did — and why everyone should care. 🧵

I just need one member of the media to ask Trump how much a $500 drug would cost after a 1500% discount.
