Every lie Trump and Republicans are telling right now is meant to distract you from this.
Fever itself can endanger fetal developmentโwhich is why Tylenol remains an important tool for protecting moms and babies.

Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband.
Today they attacked two journalists.
We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.
I canโt believe Iโm watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
I know we are โused to itโ but it is absolutely insane
Portland isnโt โwar ravagedโ.
Chicago doesnโt need โsavingโ.
Tylenol doesnโt cause autism.
People still care about the Epstein files.
Escalators breaking down is not news worthy or an emergency.
Medbeds are not the answer.
Keep resisting fascism. Ignore the distractions. Fight back.
Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.
Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.
Four giants control 80% of meat processing.
A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry.
The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.
Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move.
1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year.
Reminder that Starbucksโ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1
CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1
CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1
Trickle-down economics was always a sham.
Nothing has ever trickled down.
Could we all agree - at least outside the US - that a guy who has no medical or science training whatsoever is not the right person to discuss medicines with on tv? And if you put him on to spread doubt in medicine without a scientific basis itโs worse - you are literally endangering public health?

If you think that adults taking Tylenol hurt kids, just wait until you read what the adults in the Epstein Files were doing to them.

Why Wonโt Farmers Rebel Against Trumponomics? Because Theyโre Rich.
The majority of โfamily farmersโ arenโt working-class strivers. Theyโre affluent, politically connected businessmen who know when their next bailout is coming.

Because Tylenol is one of the most studied medications in history. The facts remain unchanged: over a decade of rigorous research, endorsed by leading medical professionals, confirm there is no credible evidence linking acetaminophen to autism. Acetaminophen is used worldwide as a first line of defense for pain relief and fever reduction, at the recommendation of independent public health and leading medical professionals and in accordance with the product label. High fevers and pain are widely recognized as potential risks to a pregnancy if left untreated, especially in the first trimester. Remember to talk to your doctor. We prioritize science as the core of how we provide care, and that will never change.

This autism press conference is an insult to science and medicine. It is a bunch of shameless male quacks shoveling bullshit at pregnant women, families and people with autism. This is a historic embarrassment for America and it is wildly dangerous.

Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors.
Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.
Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Our problem isn't a lack of resources.
Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.
There goes the First Amendment.
