'Most effective way' to prevent measles is vaccination, RFK Jr. says, in most direct remarks yet Health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Sunday that "the most effective way to prevent the spread of measles is the MMR vaccine,” his most direct statement yet on the issue.

LOUDER FOR THE ANTI-VAXXERS AT THE BACK…. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Sunday that “the most effective way to prevent the spread of measles is the MMR vaccine,” his most direct statement yet, following the death of a second child in West Texas.

Tonight we learned that it was indeed Andry, the gay man sent to El Salvador because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, who an American journalist saw sobbing as guards slapped him repeatedly and shaved his head.

He is an innocent. And Trump sent him to a torture prison.

Bring them back!

Fragile white men afraid of women ,DEI, trans people, education, and vaccines have wiped people's futures and safety net out. And all the folks who want this whiteness who voted for Trump helped them.

An emotional and financial deadbeat manipulator who has the nerve to fashion his mouth against the ordinary Americans who worked hard their entire lives and paid into a fund to ensure they would have subsistence to live on in their old age.

Stand up Americans.

YouTube video by LastWeekTonight ICE Detention: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

Not to brag but I may be the dumbest person you'll ever meet, yet it seems like the smart thing to do would be to abolish for profit private prisons and ICE, and work with Mexico and Central America to help these humans that are just trying to have a better life.
