RFK Jr. appoints 8 new members to CDC's vaccine advisory committee, including some critics of shots Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced on Wednesday eight new members of the CDC's independent vaccine advisory committee, some of whom have been critics of shots.

I know it's tempting to bring out that big tub of popcorn and watch the two circus monkeys spat today, but don't let it distract you from what 🪱🧠 is doing to our public health and response capabilities.

Here is a list of critical federal health programs for families that they want to cut.

Without these programs families will have fewer resources to care for loved ones, young and old. Those on the edge will fall into poverty.

Call your reps.

Veterans, federal workers (not named out of fear of retaliation), organizers and activists, costume lovers—thousands and thousands were out in San Francisco for the #HandsOff protest.

Bondi Suggests Signal Chat Episode Is Unlikely to Be Criminally Investigated The attorney general said the focus should be on the success of the U.S. military strike in Yemen, not on military information being shared in advance in a group text among top officials.

Here’s an unctuous toady who has zero scruples around caring about what could have happened to troops due to the morons running national security and confuses luck with what her actual job is, which is making sure people don’t have to rely on luck to stay alive www.nytimes.com/2025/03/27/u...

I think it’s bonkers that every woman I know, myself included, were told the first time they had penetrative sex it would be painful, and we were just supposed to accept that.

No one provided any solutions or strategies to prevent it. It was just supposed to be the price paid for penetration. 🥴

Graphic pulled from the video game Oregon Trail showing a prarie wagon being pulled by oxen going along a winding road with RFK Jr in the front of the wagon waving. The wagon/oxen/trail are bright green on a black background. The caption says "You have died of measles."

While RFKJ is busy making false claims about how dangerous the measles vaccine is, he forgets to mention that measles can cause pneumonias, brain swelling, and kills people. Get vaccinated. Your score per person is based on the overall health of your party.

Hunter Schafer Says She Received a Passport With Male Sex Marker After Trump’s Anti-Trans Executive Orders The 'Euphoria' star got candid in a revelatory eight-minute clip shared on social media: "It doesn't change really anything about me or my transness. However, it does make life a little harder."

History teaches us that when governments begin persecuting a vulnerable minority group while simultaneously making it harder for members of that group to escape persecution by fleeing abroad... it doesn't end well for anyone.

Hello friends. Let’s start this morning off with a pep talk.
The overwhelm, confusion, and fear you’re feeling is what they want you to feel. They want you helpless, hopeless, and paralyzed. Do not take their intimidation and do not give them your joy.
