Trump to select Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS
The choice will roil many public health experts after his years of touting debunked claims that vaccines cause autism.

I wasted 5 years of my life trying to prevent this from happening. I blame medical establishment, organized medicine, & academic institutions that looked at us like we were crazy & never joined the fight.

Just spent 2 hours figuring out the next year premiums for my family. I mean, all plans suck, some suck more than others. Coverage is poor, prices are ridiculous. 💩😡

Cheryl Hines—who has mostly steered clear of RFK’s antivaxx world—headlined a weekend gala for Children’s Health Defense. At the private party, which I watched from the back of the room, she praised CHD and hawked her book— proceeds which were promised to CHD. www.msnbc.com/news/news-an...
Does Cheryl Hines share husband RFK Jr.’s vaccine views? Now we know the answer.
The actress finally steps out as first lady of the anti-vaccine movement.

As expected, Canada has lost its measles-free status because of the long-running outbreak there. With it goes the #measles elimination status of the entire zone of the Americas, the only division of the #WHO to ever have achieved measles elimination. www.statnews.com/2025/11/10/m...
Canada loses measles elimination status — as does the entire Americas region
Canada has formally lost its measles elimination status, the country’s public health agency announced, triggering the loss of that status throughout all of the Americas.

Goodness! This is 💩.
$1455? What a deal!
My 2026 Blue Shield is $1975/mo — wife’s is similar
~$46K per year for a couple
Plus deductibles ($2600 each)
And co-pays (up to $7K each out of pocket), non covered costs etc. —
All-in $50-$60K+
Most people w/employer-sponsored plans or ACA subsidies have NO idea

Gotta hold off on donating more to the Dems. They still haven’t exactly earned the previous ones. Yet the money-asking messages keep coming multiple times a day. Maybe ask yourself what exactly you did to earn those donations.

Who can pay $1455 per month? Thats >17K per year. Thats only premiums. Add to it high deductibles, non covered costs, etc. And this is only healthcare. Then we are surprised people are not conpliant with labs, tests & meds. Because it is f*cking unaffordable to be compliant.
watching my Obamacare premiums go from $422/month to $1455/month on the Senate floor right now.

So people are just going to have to pay sky high premiums because the GOP is afraid of the Epstein files? I am assuming rates aren’t going to be fixed, so insurers can charge what they want until the government gets it shit together?

The selective silence of the media is stunning. Florida physicians are blamed for not speaking against Ladapo’s war on vaccines, yet our letter - signed by more than 1,200 verified physicians urging to keep the mandate - went unpublished by big media.
