Schrier to RFK Jr: You gave Cassidy the answer he needed to hear in order to get his confirmation vote, then as soon as you were secretary you turned around & fired all 17 members. You lied. I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every vaccine-preventable death at your feet.

Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

Important read about what's happening in Portland with mutual aid.
Last week at the community free store's Thursday distro, Portland Police arrived & began to harass community members both seeking & distributing resources. Around 6:00 PM, a group of about 4 officers approached as people were still setting up.
