Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.

Jeffrey Dahmer was very good on refrigeration
Nancy Mace claims on CNN that she supports Matt Gaetz because he's "very good on civil rights and civil liberties issues"

An antivax secdef is crazy. Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of human civilization than disease.

For my first post I was torn between posting a pic from the mountains, a pic of my cats, or expressing my election anguish. Enjoy this photo of my cats while I wrestle with existential panic.
