RFK Jr & his HHS has declared thimerosal dangerous. It’s not.

The result? US will no longer recommend vaccines with thimerosal (a safe preservative).

This lie, now policy, will ripple around the world, destroying vaccine trust, access, & uptake.

I started writing in 2016 about regressive leaders around the world, creating their authoritarian support group with speeches like these. Terrifying how the politicians go for it, even when their constituents find it abhorrent.

His treatment of universities is extortion. Not pay to play. Government extortion.

Israel’s starvation campaign ravages Gaza The cries of hungry children echo through tent camps in Gaza City, with over 50 Palestinians in the enclave starving to death in the past five days alone.

In recent days, I operated on two women who were shot by quadcopters while sheltering in their tents near one of the locations, according to the people who brought them in. One was breastfeeding her child when she was hit; the second was pregnant.
Thankfully, both have survived their injuries so far.
These women weren't even seeking aid - they were simply sheltering in areas that are supposedly
"safe" but exposed to indiscriminate fire from the IDF's weaponised hunger apparatus.

Since the start of the Gaza war, leading Israeli legal scholars have written numerous letters raising concerns over grave international law violations.

We are publishing these letters for the first time in a collected English edition, with a summary by Kai Ambos.

This sounds so much like young (maybe age 18) Stephen Miller advocating that torture is a kindness because it's not mass murder. With a smile on his face. Sociopaths are leading our countries and have captured our media outlets. It's now or never if we hope to reclaim them.

They're not just ICE. Who's carrying out out Southern California immigration raids The presence of masked federal agents is an unnerving part of life in Southern California this summer. Here's a look at who's carrying out the immigration raids.

@stephencolbert.bsky.social what say you and @jonstewart help me to form a coalition of @CATO style libertarians and progressive democrats, and we join forces to take these weath-gap capitalist, xenophobic, racist, constitution violating, misogynist, greedy, criminal MOFOs down?

Andry HernΓ‘ndez Romero, the innocent make-up artist imprisoned without trial for 4 months in El Salvador by the Trump admin, is FREE.

He was wrongfully accused of being a gang member because of his β€œmom” and β€œdad” tattoos, and illegally sent to El Salvador without due process.

It's shocking to me how often I've cited or reposted CATO in the past 8 years, but they have the goods. If they joined with progressive democrats, we'd have some real capacity.

Governor Abbott is abusing the flooding tragedy here in Texas to β€˜redraw’ (RIG) our congressional maps.

This is corruption at the highest levels of government.

He's ending it because he's hiring 10k new ICE, with 45k signing bonus incentive. Keep your eye on the fact that he is creating a massive force with extraconstitional authority, a huge weaponry arsenal, extremely low burden of proof and almost total immunity.
