Kennedy must be removed from office. He has already caused a catastrophe at HHS and the CDC.
I strongly suspect that he is about to use data manipulated by unscrupulous and unqualified individuals to attempt to falsely show that vaccines are in some way a net harm.
He simply must be stopped.

For most of my life, I had no desire to be politically active. When I started on TwiXter in 2014, it was to promote a poetry chapbook. I was politically independent, the only stance that felt justifiable. Then the next couple of years happened. (Thread)

Just to get this straight, President Tariffs Will Bring Jobs Back Home wants to pay other countries millions of dollars to take our migrants instead of giving that funding to Americans to do the same thing. Seems wasteful on top of being ridiculously cruel.

The Detroit Hands Off protest today stretched for miles, it was so powerful when we all realized that we were seeing the front of the protest looping back on the opposite side of the street when were 1.5 miles from the end. Glad a friend got video on her way to work, it really shows the scale.
