I know people are rightly going to be worried about child health, their own health. But we also can't afford this. Like, John Hopkins did an estimate (next link) and every measles case during outbreaks cost on average $43,000 to treat. That kid who got tetanus cost $1 million dollars to treat /1
BREAKING: RFKJr directs that the US instantly stop recommending all vaccinations for children. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...
Under RFK Jr., U.S. plans to stop recommending most vaccines, defer to doctors
The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

AI consumed as much water as the water bottle industry this year.
It also created as much carbon pollution as New York City, according to a new study.

Everyone involved in this, including the reporter and Mother Jones, should be ashamed of themselves. And the fact that Maddow boosted any of this bullshit and thought it newsworthy shows her own lack of credibility.

Users of Gen AI climb on the backs of actual creators and stick flags between their shoulder blades, treating them like territory. Us and our work are just ladders to them. The only work they really want to do is to climb over us and claim our talent and abilities as their own.

If SCOTUS tears down the 14th Amendment, there can be no moderate position for ANY Democrat. If they tear it down the Constitution of the United States, SCOTUS should be deemed lawless and the Democrats must go to war with lawlessness.
The fact that SCOTUS is going to tell us who's an American and who's not is THE REASON why the Democrats must stop playing around. It's time to defend immigration as a universal good and in terms of liberty and justice for all.
Accepting rightwing lies as if they're true is how we got here.

One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.

The problem with this is that the AI bubble WILL burst. It's not a matter of if but when. And as bad as it's going to be the consequences if it didn't would be sooo much worse.

Do you know how beloved that guy used to be and how loathed he is now? I think that right there should answer your question.

An understated reason figures like Newsom are so dangerous is because what really advances the most violently reactionary parts of the American state aren't just the openly far-right rulers, it's their successors entrenching what they did. Newsom types aren't an end to fascism but its completion. 🧵

Bernie is a lifelong misogynist himself, why would it be a surprise to anyone that he defends indefensible rape comments? When are we finally going to acknowledge Bernie as the criminally ineffective bag of hot garbage he actually is?
Bernie about Platner,
“In all due respect, all right, what I'm worried about, 50,000 Americans may die unnecessarily? And you're worried about a tattoo?"
When I asked about his comments about sexual assault, he said "Have you served four tours of duty?" I said "I have not."
Bernie: "Ok"

The best time to abolish ICE would have been in 2021. The next best time is if we win in 2028. At this point, any Democrat unwilling to abolish ICE must be drummed out of the primary.
ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.
The President is building an army to attack his own country.
