I urge others to similarly support our patriots at NIH who use their training and talents to improve human health and position the US as the world’s leader in biomedical discovery, innovation and technology development 🙏

And as I always harp on when this comes up— not just cervical cancer! HPV causes penile cancer, anal cancer, head and neck cancers. It is important for people of every gender to get the vaccine, and in the US you can get it up to age 45

If your boss tells you to lie to teachers, hide your identity, and steal 1st graders from their schools you have a bad job and an evil boss and you should say no
BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

For some reason, I was just thinking about how Trump’s former chief of staff tried to warn us right before the election that Trump was a fascist who wanted to rule us like a dictator … and the New York Times put that story on page A12

this is why local news in so many of its forms is so important. people in media who serve a community, not a national audience, who can build up decades of credibility. it's not just that he's speaking up but that there's a possibility people might listen. this is what's lost when you gut local news
