Portland Update. Oct 5: TLDR: Now that trump is wanting to send BOTH CA andTX Natl Guard into Oregon: there has been more Court action. 14 Day TRO.

He learned his lessons well... TY!!

The Portland Navy is arriving

At one point this guy is like “I’m not arguing the merits of it, but the politics” and why the fuck not dude?! Maybe the problem with the media is that you’re NOT ARGUING THE MERITS OF IF SOMETHING IS TRUE OR NOT

So many of us have family and friends who will be affected... We need Universal Healthcare!!

Hard to decide who was more embarrassing today: Hegseth or Trump?! I doubt the Generals and Admirals were favorably impressed.... What a F'n waste of taxpayer $$$

👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👍

Trump's cult of followers are attacking & making vulnerable another woman of color simply for doing her job. It is dangerous & despicable. The normalization of these threats cannot stand. We must speak out against them every single time & demand accountability every single time. @jayapal.house.gov

Once again, Edward does a thorough job of explaining the actual facts.

This IS DISGUSTING!! I hope the Good People of Albuquerque raise their voices...

Right? wtf? It’s right there in their faces.

Wrong on every single point!! In case you didn't know: the MMR components are not even available separately....

Opportunity to raise your voice... print a postcard, mail by Oct 24th and Sen Wyden will have proof we care!!

Must read 🧵: Roald Dahl on Measles: "Olivia, my eldest daughter, caught measles when she was seven years old. As the illness took its usual course I can remember reading to her often in bed and not feeling particularly alarmed about it.

😱

Ooop!

David Rose, the police officer and Afghanistan veteran with a wife and 2 small children, was murdered by a white, right wing extremist man a month ago over antivaccine conspiracies pushed by RFK Jr. and this administration. He did not get recognition from political leaders or even much news coverage

On the bright side: witnessed the beautiful conjunction of the crescent Moon and Venus this morning: 2° apart

Kind of feeling like we're in a Star trek style parallel Universe.. and I sure hope the crew figures out how to transport us back to sane reality again...soon!!

it is *infuriating* to listen to RFK Jr. slander CDC workers — including his comments that they kill children — when this is the way his stacked, handpicked panel handles the actual responsibility of children’s health

Meissner is dead wrong about this. This ACIP is illegitimate. It does not warrant the attendance of professional medical societies to indulge its conspiratorial, uninformed ramblings. Every single professional society should be doing what AAP is doing.

Who would have thought we will see the day that the #ACIP meeting sounds like a plenary at an anti-vaccine convention? The primary emotion I feel is sadness. We are losing so much in real time.

Good to know. Good to share!!

It's amazing that ICE can use the color of your skin to profile for your arrest, but universities can't use it to understand the background that you grew up in.

This came across my feed tonight. It is most timely, as I approach 2 years after losing my son unexpectedly. I'm proud to say his Legacy is a good one. 💔💝 Reach out to those you live often... the future is not a given...

Kaiser Permanente in both Southern and Northern CA will be offering 2025-2026 COVID vaccines to those 6 months and older starting September 15th. Kaiser told the 🧠🪱, Malarkey and The Prasad to 🖕. healthy.kaiserpermanente.org/southern-cal...

Hard to decide who's more deranged...Trump or rfkj?! I grew up in sane decade: we never had guns at school...norcwere we encouraged to bring them. Blatant Lies!

“The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.” — Spock

FYI - if you are looking for the 2025-2026 vaccine manufactured by Novavax at CVS, ask them to look up the actual vaccine name: Nuvaxovid (They will not find it in their system if they look up “Novavax”)

The US regime is conducting ideological purges of the federal government, deleting entire agencies because they dared touch inconvenient topics, prosecuting political enemies.. and fools like Nate Silver are still complaining that LIBERALS are too close-minded and censorious????

How frustrating.

Trying to decide on The Picture Of The Week that best shows the worst side of America... a) sleazy decrepit trump in front of burning America b) bag of chips...new Flavor: " Bribe"

Every single member of this administration is just a cheap huckster trying to grift the American people. Undocumented immigrants aren’t the ones leeching off your tax dollars; Kristi Noem and her stupid friends are.

Strange!

Today's Great Read: Malaria and potential mRNA vaccines.

WASHINGTON STATE.... are you listening?!

This is an excellent commentary that exposes the hollowness of RFK Jr’s claims about mRNA vaccines. There is an explanation for why no respected scientist supports his policies, and it’s the obvious one.
