Remember Andrew Wakefield?
Here he is with his friend RFK Jr. in 2020.
Wakefield is the guy behind the fraudulent, retracted MMR–autism study. He lost his medical license for subjecting autistic children to unnecessary invasive procedures.
Now, with Kennedy in power, he’s getting a second act.

Too many people still consider rape a property crime, not an assault on an individual. Once you understand that, so many things about Epstein, the MeToo backlash, etc. start to make sense.

There's no softening, there's no internal conflict. She hasn't changed & she gets no sympathy
Sucks for her the dude she slobby knobbed for years has turned on her, but lie down with dogs and all that.
We can be appalled she's getting death threats and still think she's a POS we don't want around.

One of those things that no one tells you about getting old as a woman is one day you're going to get a phone call that your aunt has died and you suddenly realize that you're now the oldest living woman in your family.
And you're barely 50yo.

I still want to know if every single President is on that wall or if it's conspicuously missing the last three Democrats and possibly the last five presidents altogether. It's not like he had any love for the Bushs.

When you understand the two core beliefs of evangelicalism - "Lies in service of the Lord are not a sin" and "the Lord sends his most imperfect Messenger to spread his word" - you understand bullshit like this and people like Mike Pence and Mike Johnson.

Well they got exactly what they voted for; someone who would run this country like a business. Too bad the country's not a fucking business and is not meant to make a profit.
So he’s saying all the tariff money we took in is gone and we won’t be able to pay it back. There was always a possibility he could lose this lawsuit and have to refund the tariff money. We didn’t prepare for that possibility? He’s running the govt like he ran his casinos.

I'm actually okay with this. It was a bullshit propaganda move from the Bush, Jr. Admin that should've died years ago. We don't need to keep singing God Bless America during the 7th inning stretch either.
Veterans Day is Tuesday, and unlike previous years, there will not be honor guards and military service members unveiling American flags, in addition to the lack of a flyover, at the 13 NFL games on Sunday and Monday.

They are doing this because they are getting away with it. And they will continue to get away with it because if any of them get arrested Trump is going to pardon them. Literally the only way these guys stop is if we treat them how we would treat anybody else who did this. We fought a war over this.
