Few nations have not committed genocide. The good ones however have in recent times apologized and committed not to do it again. Hopefully America will soon return to that version of itself rather than the current childish, resentful and unpredictably violent version.
Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

If we're finally going to crack down about lying to Congress under oath, I think there are several Cabinet members and a few Supreme Court justices whose testimonies might need revisiting.
Rep. Dan Crenshaw: "This is about lying to Congress under oath, and Comey needs accountability for that. He doesn't get to just walk through the woods and write poetry and do other weird things and post on Instagram anymore. He's gonna actually have to face it."

The FDA statement ends with a paragraph undermining its own warning.
They signal parents to avoid acetaminophen. Except sometimes. And then:
No “causal relationship… established” with ADHD or autism
AND
Alternatives to acetaminophen have “well-documented adverse impacts.”
