Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪
Here’s Your Cheat Sheet for Vaccine Recommendations Backed by Science

It is not unfrequent to hear men declaim loudly upon liberty, who, if we may judge by the whole tenor of their actions, mean nothing else by it but their own liberty, — to oppress without control or the restraint of laws all who are poorer or weaker than themselves.

The Trump Administration deliberately doxxed the wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia by posting her home address publicly on X. Now she and their 3 children have been forced into hiding for their safety.
This is not politics.
This is targeted cruelty.

Toddlers are representing themselves in immigration court.
The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA), passed in 1952 & upheld in 2018, says these children don’t have the right to an attorney.
This administration is taking advantage of this.
This law must be changed.

Today, on Yom HaShoah, I read my fierce & wise friend Malena’s thread & wept. Her words remind us why we must remember. Six million lives, 1.5 million children, lost for the "crime" of being different. This is what happens when hate goes unchecked.
Never again must mean never again.

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day—Yom HaShoah.
Everyone who opposes oppression should read about the Holocaust so they understand the depravity into which hate, fascism & authoritarianism can lead us to.
I beg you to read The Light of Days by Judy Batalion.
Here you will read of true resistance.
