We need to call the shooting at CDC what it is - an act of domestic terrorism, stoked by antivax rhetoric.
We are beyond enraged at RFKJ's "leadership" and that the President still hasn't even acknowledged the attack.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

The bad news: many have this despicable banner attached to them. We will be getting into misconceptions in gender ideology in a later post. For now, we are hurt and ashamed, and we stand with the LGBTQIA+ community.
