This wasn't even lying, or hypocrisy on Barrett's part. See, she doesn't think trans people are real. She wrote that in her concurring opinion. To her, and the current HHS, trans people don't actually exist, so you can't discriminate against us (because we're not real). That's why they did this too.

FDA chief says Biden administration withheld data on heart risk from Covid vaccines Myocarditis is a known — but small — side effect risk of the mRNA Covid vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna, information that federal agencies have discussed openly since 2021.

“I certainly didn’t see any secret information or cover-up in my experience working with the FDA. We were broadcast live in real time, with public commentary, and I didn’t have access to any more information than any other American.”

In case somehow someone missed this

I have typed and deleted my thoughts about six times because it's against the rules to speak out against a government that is seeking to eliminate me and people like me from the country

The first legal name and gender marker change for a trans woman in the US wasn’t successful until 1975. Admiral Levine couldn’t even be “Rachel” by law until right about when she graduated high school. Yes, that’s discrimination. No, I can’t believe I have to explain that.

This isn’t some software update or a computer system roll-back happening as part of thousands of changes all at once, they actually paid a real person to manually remove and then alter a framed portrait

It doesn’t actually matter how brazen they make the attacks against us, there will always be a plurality of people willing to pretend the issue is too nebulous or “nuanced” to call with any certainty.

For some reason, after initially becoming insensate with rage when I read about HHS defacing Dr. Rachel Levine’s official portrait, I find myself thinking about Amy Coney Barrett pretending she genuinely believed trans people have never faced de jure discrimination in the US during Skrmetti.

This is essentially v-coding on a national scale and it’s an absolute crime against humanity.

Spend five minutes talking to someone who has survived what these policies were designed to stop and you’ll never be the same again. PREA is imperfect and often weaponized, but it’s often the only protection trans/intersex prisoners have. Everyone involved in this should never know a moment’s peace.

Every time ACIP meets, Bill Cassidy (R, Coward City) makes pathetic mewling sounds about how bad the committee is.

It is Bill Cassidy’s fault that ACIP is no longer a legitimate scientific body.

Sir, you are a fucking U.S. Senator. Impeach RFK Jr or STFU.

“In a letter to investors from earlier this year, Karp quoted a political scientist to say that the “rise of the West was not made possible ‘by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion… but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence.'”

OU alumni here. She didn’t do the assignment and this is def a coordinated effort to try and get the trans grad student fired. I can’t believe OU is “investigating” this, and they have already said the 0 won’t count against her. This sets a dangerous precedent. Boomer Sooner??

Parker nails it, as always.

Just directly to The Hague at this point.

wow they duct taped the Tylenol scarecrow together

So dodgy is this website that they inserted a totally unrelated AAP announcement linked to the AAP site on the “journal” page as if it was their content into the journal’s news feed as if AAP would ever dare be involved in something as shameful as this

• INTRODUCTION Based on overwhelming evidence, we have previously concluded that exposure of susceptible babies and children to acetaminophen (paracetamol) causes many if not most cases of autism spectrum disorder (autism). 1,2,3, 4 Further, we concluded that

The new “journal” launched by RFK jr and his merry band of human carcinogens where they declare not only is a link definitive or even that it’s causal, but that it causes “many if not most” cases of autism.

BMJ’s Coverage of Kennedy’s Vaccine Reforms Amounts to Character Assassination by Peter C. Gøtzsche Abstract: The reactions to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s initiatives to improve vaccine safety have been almost uniformly negative. I studied how the narratives were framed in a cohort of 33 articles in the BMJ of which 30 were written by journalists or the editor. I focused on whether the reporting was balanced and informative, and whether the articles saw any merit in Kennedy's reforms in his role as Secretary of Health and Human Services or supported the status quo. The reporting in the BMJ was highly biased. Much of the information provided in Kennedy's disfavour was misleading, and some was wrong. All initiatives at improving vaccine safety were condemned, without any analysis of their merits in an evidence-based fashion. Instead, the BMJ cited people who had their own agendas and who condemned Kennedy without providing any evidence in their favour while expressing faith in vaccines, with the industry mantra that they are safe and effective, although all drugs will harm some people. The BMJ did not take any interest in the widespread and lethal corruption in US healthcare institutions - one of Kennedy's focus points - but toned it down. Despite the constant ad hominem attacks, Kennedy has succeeded to introduce important changes and plans related to vaccine safety, guidance about how vaccines are used, and about avoiding neurotoxic metals in vaccine adjuvants.

The grievance blog masquerading as a "journal" founded by Trump HHS appointees (The "Journal" of the "Academy" of Public Health) is now publishing lengthy screeds about how HHS secretary RFK Jr is being treated unfairly by the BMJ and calling it a literature synthesis...

No for real, I really wish science had responded to the usurpation of scientific language to push dangerous fiction with a little more gusto than we saw in retrospect

I think people haven’t always known they were supposed to hate us as a means to a specific political end. Sure, generally they did because we were different, but even looking back on Springer— and it was BAD, it sounds not dissimilar to any given night on Fox News. Horrendous, but odiously familiar.

I don’t want to come off unnecessarily grim when I say we’re going back some fifty years, but this is from 1976. That’s how far back the clock has rolled on this.

CIDRAP’s Vaccine Integrity Project has released a major evidence review: 400+ studies/reports, 40 years of data—and the conclusion is unmistakable.

There is no evidence supporting a delay in the hepatitis B birth dose.

While those of us in the middle of our lives tend to hold the microphone, it’s always those in the early and later years of life who suffer in ways that are uniquely painful and rarely visible.

"They've been so respectful and so understanding of the decision, but profoundly sad," she said. "I spoke to one 80-year-old woman who has been in our organisation for decades, who said it was one of the greatest experiences of her life, and the only place in her 80 years where she's been treated as a woman with respect."

Stuck on this gutting sentence on the Women’s Institute decision. For young people it’s watching the world close to them before they’ve had a shot at life, for older women it’s watching half a century of progress vanish. Either way it’s grossly, unbearably cruel.

All of the UK is pretending that the UK secretly passed the equality act in 2010 that required a national bathroom ban along with a full ban of trans people from society and it was only discovered fifteen years later. It's obscene.

“I think we have to be careful with the Nazi comparisons” people are always waiting until we are five minutes until the Holocaust and then they’re like well it’s only ethnic cleansing not a Holocaust

I don’t know why I bothered but I had to check to see if the associated press had developed the ability to call water wet yet

This is an ethnic cleansing campaign

"I don't want them in our country," he said. "Their country is no good for a reason."

Is this clear enough or are we still doing that whole thing where we pretend it’s about “crime”?
