A nice thread in which an actual expert patiently explains why the Secretary of Health and Human Service is not simply a liar, but an especially stupid one.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

Brian wrote the book There is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America.
You can't write a plot twist this obvious.
A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.

When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.

This is outrageous.

Elon Musk appointed 19-year-old Edward “Big Balls” Coristine, the grandson of a KGB lieutenant colonel to DOGE. He was instrumental in cutting funding for the United States Agency for International Development, which directly resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of poor people overseas.

Climate change terrorist Russ Vought is not done destroying America until the Heritage Foundation tells him to stop. He is working nonstop to dismantle Earth and climate science across the board. Another thankless job, you’re welcome.

Robert Reich: According to the Arizona Mirror, the administration’s goal, ICE acting director Todd M. Lyons said, in April, is to deport immigrants as efficiently as Amazon moves packages: “Like Prime, but with human beings.” open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
The Brazen Cruelty of the Trump Regime
Its plan to warehouse immigrants has shades of Nazi concentration camps and America's shameful imprisonment of Japanese Americans during World War II.
