This is really awful. The CDC’s page stating vaccines do not cause autism (reality) has been zombified as a platform for conspiracy theories saying they do. Such a crime to dissuade parents from these safe vaccines and bamboozle parents of kids with autism on the causes www.wsj.com/health/healt...
CDC Changes Webpage to Say Vaccines May Cause Autism, Revising Prior Language
The text on vaccines had been a focal point for both vaccine skeptics, who criticized it, and public health advocates, who wondered how far RFK Jr. would go to change it.

The Department of Education wants to limit what degrees count as “professional”, impacting people’s ability to access loans.
Unsurprisingly, it’s women dominated professions being targeted.
It’s also a disability rights issue as they’re targeting paramedical programs. NPs, PTs, SLPs & social work

Steven Crowder is a millionaire
That didn’t stop him from taking out 70k in PPP Loans at the beginning of the pandemic
He didn’t pay it back
Apparently those kinds of government handouts are “ok”… but feeding hungry kids? Disabled people? Folks living in poverty?
That’s where he draws the line

I really hate it when scientists keep saying that “we need to rebuild trust in science,” because it implies that scientists are to blame for the mistrust rather than the millions of dollars of dark money that have funded political attacks on science in order to advance a far right agenda.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

That they will lose their medical insurance
