Hey bozo, the average pay is higher in blue states than red states. Did you think of that? Stop this plutocratic gaslighting.

Another—more accurate—description of “scientific orthodoxy” is “fact.” It's shameful that the country’s medical policy is being led by a worm-brained roadkill-eating cook. And it's shameful that the paper of record helps sanitize this.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

Everyone - and I mean EVERYONE - who faces any consequences whatsoever over their association with Epstein and participation in his network, is a step in the right direction. Maybe not the step we're most excited about. But a step is a step. And I'm gonna savor every win, no matter who.

The Epstein Files bill has a lot of protections in it to prevent Bondi from doing what we all suspect she's going to do: hold back or redact because of an open investigation or national security concerns. If she improperly withholds, she'll be sued, and SCOTUS will eventually decide.
