RFK Jr. has a long, disgraceful track record of peddling conspiracy theories on vaccines that have caused parents to question the safety and efficacy of vaccinations.

I will continue to hold him accountable for outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases like measles.

ATTN FEDERAL WORKERS: It has come to my attention that several agencies are now offering WiFi for you to use with your PERSONAL devices. If I were you, I would NOT use that WiFi. I suspect it's a way for DOGE to monitor your personal communications.

RFK Jr. Takes a Sledgehammer to Two Major Vaccine Developments Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is already implementing his dangerous anti-vax views at HHS.

NEW:

β€œKennedy paused a multimillion dollar project to create a new Covid-19 vaccine in pill form on Tuesday, and the Food and Drug Administration canceled an advisory committee meeting on updating next season’s flu vaccine.”

That was the original goal post. That and making the government non functional so some could be replaced by for profit components. It's all about profits.

One Word Describes Trump A century ago, a German sociologist explained precisely how the president thinks about the world.

Many of Donald Trump’s actions appear senseless to onlookers, writes @jonrauch.bsky.social. They have left many asking, β€œWhat exactly is Donald Trump doing?” The answer is simple. It’s corruption:

Trump wants you to forget that he gutted the Aviation Safety Committee and ousted the FAA administrator during his first week in office.

Don’t forget.

Republicans consider cuts and work requirements for Medicaid, jeopardizing care for millions Republicans are weighing billions of dollars in cuts to Medicaid, jeopardizing health care coverage for some of the 80 million U.S. adults and children enrolled in the safety net program.

The Regime wants to put in a work requirement to receive Medicaid, a medical plan that covers people with disabilities. At the same time, they want everyone back in an office, and they’ve killed DEI efforts. So their message is β€œgo to hell, people with disabilities”. apnews.com/article/medi...

Top Social Security Official Leaves After Musk Team Seeks Data Access The departure of the acting commissioner is the latest backlash to the Department of Government Efficiency’s efforts to access sensitive data.

Donald Trump is selling out our seniors to Elon Musk.

He is handing over control to sensitive Social Security information to an UNELECTED billionaire.

Is Trump too weak to tell Musk no?

Is he using Musk to cut Social Security so he doesn't have to take the blame?
