We are watching Trump accuse a person of a crime then peddle lies and even fabricate evidence to support imprisoning him. That is the power Trump and his regime are openly fighting for to use against anyone. That is why we must fight back. My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/trump-fabr...

3 days ago RFK Jr. told the CDC to stop recommending water fluoridation, claiming it was a neurotoxin (this is a lie).
Turns out he also just eliminated the CDC’s entire Lead Program, and now lead poisoned children in Milwaukee are just on their own. Lead IS a neurotoxin and harms brain development
