RFK Jr & his HHS has declared thimerosal dangerous. It’s not.

The result? US will no longer recommend vaccines with thimerosal (a safe preservative).

This lie, now policy, will ripple around the world, destroying vaccine trust, access, & uptake.

Since the start of the Gaza war, leading Israeli legal scholars have written numerous letters raising concerns over grave international law violations.

We are publishing these letters for the first time in a collected English edition, with a summary by Kai Ambos.

@stephencolbert.bsky.social what say you and @jonstewart help me to form a coalition of @CATO style libertarians and progressive democrats, and we join forces to take these weath-gap capitalist, xenophobic, racist, constitution violating, misogynist, greedy, criminal MOFOs down?

Andry Hernández Romero, the innocent make-up artist imprisoned without trial for 4 months in El Salvador by the Trump admin, is FREE.

He was wrongfully accused of being a gang member because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, and illegally sent to El Salvador without due process.

It's shocking to me how often I've cited or reposted CATO in the past 8 years, but they have the goods. If they joined with progressive democrats, we'd have some real capacity.
In Lackey v. Stinnie, #SCOTUS made it harder for civil rights plaintiffs to recover fees as prevailing parties. But Congress can and should change underlying law, argues Cato's Thomas Berry, to designate a party "prevailing" if it wins a preliminary injunction before a case becomes moot.
Congress Should Restore the Proper Incentives for Public-Interest Litigation
The Supreme Court weakened the incentive to bring public-interest litigation, but Congress can easily solve that problem.

Governor Abbott is abusing the flooding tragedy here in Texas to ‘redraw’ (RIG) our congressional maps.

This is corruption at the highest levels of government.

We have to pay attention and fight this scheme. #txlege

And, crucially, he's confident that he's destroyed or captured the other branches of government and any (or enough) checks on his power.
Re: stripping citizenship, look. There is no legal mechanism for him to do it. The very fact that he is talking about it tells you, yet again, what he is. He’s an aspiring totalitarian who wants absolute power over people’s lives and to use it to reward friends and punish enemies. That’s really it.

They dont have arrest authority, so "resisting arrest" is not in fact the justification they think it is. Nor do they have jurisdiction over criminal law (like assault).

The problem is they do have an extremely low burden of proof on immigration stops (reasonable suspicion).
Another ICE "assault" case unravels. Border Patrol and ICE are arresting US citizens and then after they find out that they are US citizens, they are charging them with "assault" to justify their actions. This is clearly DHS policy at this point. We've seen it repeatedly now.

Billionaire Peter Thiel installed JD Vance into the Senate and placed him in the VP position.

Epstein invested into Valar Ventures founded by Thiel which was hidden, until recently.

Is there a connection to the missing #EpsteinFiles?
