Sidenote about mumps: swollen (painful) testes in ~15-30% of teens and adults, also swollen ovaries (~5%) and mammary glands (~30%) and encephalitis (~1%), so let's hear people say "natural immunity" is superior to getting vaxxed.
Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading.

Now we’ve got mumps rolling up.

Expect more.

This is just the beginning of RFK Jr.’s successful infectious disease reintroduction plan.

While Trump’s second term has been defined by attacks on democracy, it’s also seen an obliteration of reproductive rights led heedlessly by the GOP.

And Republicans will not stop, because they're dead set on controlling all freedoms, Planned Parenthood’s Lauren Blauvelt writes.
Abortion bans have always been part of the attack on democracy
The Trump administration has been laying the groundwork for obliterating reproductive rights from the start.

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

I think I found a cheat code.

Last week in the ER I was waiting for a doc to call me. I answered my cell & it was a Dem candidate. I angrily unloaded & said I was working in the ER, take my work phone off the damn list because they were interfering with patient care.

I haven't heard a peep since.

I just ordered #GirlScoutCookies from a transgender scout

And it's about supporting trans kids now when they are being actively targeted by the federal government. Not at all because Tagalongs and Thin Mints are basically crack cocaine. It's only about the kids.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.

We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

Leaked video from one of the regime’s black sites, shows victims being crammed into small detention rooms designed for short stays indefinitely. More than 50 people at a time, including US residents and citizens. They report beatings, torture, and food deprivation. #3E #GoodvsEvil

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

They put this five year old boy in a concentration camp.

Every. Single. Person. Who is working for ICE now needs to be prosecuted for crimes against humanity. I don't care if you are a secretary or an HR person who just does payroll. You are complicit in these atrocities.
