A regime that can only imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever, is scared to death of the power of art to document the terror the regime inflicts on its most vulnerable.

SANDERS: Nah. Uh uh. I didn't ask measles. Do vaccines cause autism?

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?

ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.

I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

Controversial US study on hepatitis B vaccines in Africa is cancelled $1.6m project drew outrage over ethical questions about withholding vaccines proven to prevent disease

Remember that exploitative and unethical clinical trial of HepB vaccine in Guinea-Bissau that RFK Jr. funded?

It’s been cancelled.

In 2026, let’s convince Mamdani to do like Sadiq Khan and invest in clean air for NYC schools!

NY is currently in an ALL-TIME HIGH flu season.
