@vanhollen.senate.gov @repaprildelaney.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov @alsobrooks.senate.gov Decades of safe public health programs are being demolished. #ImpeachRFK ! 🛑 this anti-science nonsense!! 21782/01 constituent in health care is asking you PLEASE ACT!!

Following #ACIP - apparently, ACIP combined the immunization schedule and hepatitis B workgroups - a change not reflected in the ACIP workgroup list, and it was chaired by Dr. Vicki Pebsworth, a director in an anti-vaccine organization, the National Vaccine Information Center.

ACIP co-chair and rabid anti-vaxxer Robert Malone keeps silencing ACIP members Meissner and Hibbeln because they are DEMANDING evidence of the false claims being made by radical anti-vaxxer and climate scientist Nevinson and radical anti-vaxxer and Harvard MBA Blaxill.

"The problems are immense, but the solutions are immense too." I loved this short documentary about botanist Hugh Wilson, who spent thirty years protecting and growing a forest in New Zealand. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VZS...

Going to be an awful day for anyone who appreciates vaccines, as Kennedy's ACIP meets today. The agenda is up and even the person representing CDC in the first session is a hard-core antivaxxer (Mark Blaxill). Starting today at 8am Eastern.

Trump’s “Media Bias Tipline” asks Americans to snitch on journalists for “left-wing lunacy.” The real bias? A government trying to police the press. Mark NC has a better idea: report Fox News.

people, you have the chance to put my book ahead of Olivia Nuzzi’s on the bestseller list. put aside all other considerations and think how objectively funny this would be. #1, that Mountain Goats guy. #2, Antivax Man Has My Heart. funniest list of the century. We can do this if we try

Once again I am calling on @postopinions.bsky.social to byline the editorials ascribed to the editorial board, because readers should be able to make fun of the specific person who wrote this dogshit and thought it was smart www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

You do you, boo. 😏

I really appreciate @markhertling.bsky.social ‘s clear, thoughtful explanations of how it’s supposed to work. Most civilians don’t know.. some misemployed reservists, as well. O_o

Worthy of a post Don't know who did this but made me LMAO🤣🤣

Forget Whether Or Not DOGE Exists: Will Anyone Be Held Accountable For 600,000 Deaths? First, let's dispense with the theater: the question of whether DOGE "still exists" as a formal entity completely misses the point. The always-misleadingly-named "Department of Government Efficiency" was never…

“Delaying the first hepatitis B vaccine dose beyond the newborn period introduces risks that have lifelong detrimental consequences and no measurable health benefit.” Important and timely piece by an amazing team - Mike Abers, Angela Ulrich, & Rochelle Walensky. 👏👏 jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

A Threat to Evidence-Based Vaccine Policy and Public Health Security at the FDA: former FDA commissioners call out Dr. Prasad's departure from previous standards in @nejm.org www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

Hoping this is #FrontPage and context for all journalists and editors writing about the demolition of the FDA and CDC by antiscience.

This is really important. Both in the fact of IMLS reinstating grants. (Which have been *crucial* for libraries and civic life across the country. Notably in rural areas.) And in the example that the overall stalwartness and rigor of federal district/circuit courts has made a huge difference.

@VoteVets so say we all.

@europarl.europa.eu @weareoversight.bsky.social @pogo.org @oversightdemocrats.house.gov We cannot ignore the illegality of Witkoff, whose actions are inappropriate & illegal! thechrissampson.substack.com/p/a-crime-in...

Did you know Trump has added 2.2 trillion to the national debt since taking office 10 months ago?

Republican and Democratic lawmakers, in the House and in the Senate, today demanded that Pam Bondi brief them by Friday on the full contents of DOJ's files on Jeffrey Epstein -- including new info DOJ has. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Legal analyst Andrew Napolitano, Pete Hegseth’s former Fox News colleague, says it gives him “no pleasure to say” that the defense secretary must be prosecuted for war crimes.

@schiff.senate.gov @reptedlieu.bsky.social @raskin.house.gov @repvindman.bsky.social @ec.europa.eu Witkoff is violating multiple acts & statutes, including the Logan Act. It cannot continue. thechrissampson.substack.com/p/a-crime-in...

So, let's play make-believe and pretend that Prasad has rock solid proof the vaccine killed 10 kids. He is now sitting on it, refusing to give doctors on the ground the information they need to inform their patients. The opposite of radical transparency. endpoints.news/fda-says-it-...

Current US Policy: If you’re suspected of trafficking a small amount of drugs with no evidence, we will murder you, but if you’re convicted of trafficking an enormous amount of drugs with copious evidence, we will pardon you. Because we are currently a very stupid country.

With this week’s shakeup at the CDC’s vaccine advisory committee, an ivermectin-promoting anti-vax group is well positioned to influence vaccine policy in the U.S. Both the new chair and the existing vice chair of ACIP have ties to the so-called Independent Medical Alliance. Full story:

BREAKING NEWS: Pentagon IG says of Hegseth's use of Signal, "The information could have imperiled American troops." If Hegseth values our troops as much as he says he does, he should resign and allow someone more experienced to lead the Department of Defense.

The efforts of the Trump administration are the latter, creating uncomfortable & unsafe working conditions for federal employees who either practice a religion that is not Christianity—or no religion at all.”

Oh.

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

@tedlieu.bsky.social @schiff.senate.gov No. Just no.

@markhertling.bsky.social Knows the way. I will follow. So say we all.

Hey, remember that line about fascism being wrapped in the American flag? lnk.thebulwark.com/3XZz9aF

Mark Kelly Reveals ‘Graphic’ and ‘Violent’ Threats He’s Received Since Trump Lashed Out at Him

DHS’s post suggesting “if you help kick people out of the country you’ll be able to afford housing” is OG Nazism.

Great news and a win for public health! We need pillars like Planned Parenthood around to continue providing quality accessible sexual and reproductive healthcare. And a friendly reminder that today is Giving Tuesday should you feel so inclined to support any of your favorite worthwhile causes.

I thought Pete was pro-war crimes back then? And then very upset about the very idea of soldiers not following illegal orders just last week? It's hard to keep up.

My mom used to live in West Nashville and I briefly dated a girl from Clarksville, so if any national reporters want the Inside Scoop on TN-7, hit me up.

From a sharp friend: “I left the room before they killed him” is the new “I did not have sex with that woman.”

Hilariously, this will not only affect Melania and Barron, but Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and Andrew Tate.
