12 former FDA chiefs unite to say agency memo on vaccines is deeply stupid
Prasad’s arguments “misrepresent both the science and the regulatory record.”…
Without evidence, Prasad claimed COVID-19 vaccines have killed 10 children in the US, and announced unilateral, sweeping changes to the way the agency regulates and approves vaccines, including seasonal flu shots.
A dozen former FDA chiefs say that's deeply stupid.

We keep hearing how many GOP electeds don’t approve of a lot of what felon is doing but that they’re too scared to say anything. Voters have got to start electing people with a proven record of having a spine. Across the board. No spine, no vote.

Pastor Black: While I was in the middle of using the words of Jesus, they opened fire on me. It was so clear that they had been so poorly trained, or — the alternative — that they had been deliberately told to escalate violence against peaceful protesters.

Way back in fifth grade (I am 74 years old) I memorized this fact: “Cobalt is a mineral that looks like nickel and is used in making jets.” Every time I see cobalt mentioned I think of this 1965-era factoid. Tnx for the post. And the good recycling news.

Hi @DHSgov,
We're the folks who reported the facts you're now dismissing.
So just a reminder:
We found 170+ cases of immigration agents detaining U.S. citizens this year. In dozens of cases, charges have never been filed or the cases were dismissed.
Among the detained: nearly 20 children, including two with cancer. propublica.org/article/immigr...

Stop fear-mongering. ICE does NOT arrest or deport U.S. citizens.
If a U.S. citizen is arrested, it is because they have obstructed or assaulted law enforcement.
What makes someone a target for immigration enforcement is if they are illegally in the U.S.— NOT their skin color, race, or ethnicity.
Secretary Noem has been clear: rioters will not stop us or slow us down.

This is patently false.
The Trump-Noem DHS is detaining American citizens....
This didn’t age well from yesterday… the gaslighting is on overdrive with DHS.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth called Admiral Alvin Holsey on the carpet to address the admiral's refusal to carry out fishing boat attacks in the Caribbean.
Admiral Holsey expressed his concern for civilian casualties.

The fact that four hostile drones tried to hit Zelenskyy’s plane & it’s barely a blip in the news cycle should terrify everyone. We’ve been dragged so deep into the chaos era that an attempted strike on a world leader doesn’t even break through. When this becomes normal, the world is in real danger.

Next November, the story is going to be that Florida’s voters—not the candidate—flipped this state for the first time in 30 years.
We have the power to choose a new direction and create a movement that cannot be stopped.
Florida’s next. Will you be a part of this?

Upcoming events – People Not Politicians
One of the unique things about Missouri is our ability to veto legislation passed without our consent. This outrageous mid-decade redistricting should be thrown out. This is the last week to sign the petitions to put it to a vote. Sign a petition now! We pick our politicians, they don’t pick us!
