The July 4 Texas flooding ripped our Kerr County home from its pillars, pulling us into the water and into the night. Then morning came.

I have no words. Why the war on our remarkable American civil servants?? We have great ppl working for Americans.
“We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected,” said Trump adviser Russell Vought. “When they wake up in the morning, we want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains. We want their funding to be shut down."

Marines sign up to defend our country from our enemies, not to police civilians on American soil. Using them as props for political theater is not only dangerous to our country and the people, it's damaging and disrespectful to the military itself.

This is a time when so many people are going to make so much money off of jailing and deporting immigrants. Just obscene amounts; tens of billions will be spent on contractors in the next few years.

We still have no idea who the ICE agents are. They could be insurrectionists, extremist militiamen or criminals themselves, chasing law-abiding citizens down the street for recording their kidnappings. The odds they aren't are low. Congress must raise hell about this. A masked gang runs our country.

just saw a group of masked men stuffing masked ICE agents into an unmarked car, who were saying "we're ICE we're ICE!" but the abductors shouted to the crowd "no we're ICE!" no one knew who was ICE, so no one in the crowd said anything.

Our own dystopia. Running Man. Hunger Games. The costumes and plastic surgery. #itwastold #samestory
Kristi Noem has been working with the producer of “Duck Dynasty” to pitch a reality TV show—titled “The American”—where immigrants will compete in a string of challenges across the country “for the honor of fast-tracking their way to U.S. citizenship,” according to a new report.
Noem Plots Reality Show Where Migrants Fight for Citizenship
A Homeland Security official told the Daily Beast that the show is in the early stages of vetting, though approval has not been given—or denied.

Two main ways children get hepatitis B virus:
1️⃣ Perinatal transmission causes chronic hepatitis in 90% of pediatric cases which leads to liver failure or cancer
2️⃣ contact with bodily fluids from a family member, esp for kids < 5.
HBV IS NOT *just* sexually transmitted.

Children infected with hepatitis B virus have 90% risk of developing chronic hepatitis.
30% of liver cancers are caused by chronic hepatitis B.
We have an incredibly effective vaccine. THAT’S why we vaccinate babies.
