Once again, I urge everyone who can to get the vaccine before the ACIP meeting on Sept. 18-19. RFK Jr.‘s antivax lackeys will likely further restrict who can get the vaccine.

So it turns out that the #USA never had checks and balances. And it would appear to have had a very weak constitution too.
American democracy, it seems, historically operated on a hand-shake between gentlemen.
And then it ran out of gentlemen.
