RFK Jr. has suggested that the FDA & NIH should review mifepristone's safety.
How does that work when Trump has allegedly made moves to slash funding for both NIH & FDA?
Decades of research show the abortion pill is safe & effective.
Talk about waste! Where's DOGE?🤔

Measles cases rising in a Texas County. Measles hospitalizations rising, all in unvaccinated patients. Most are children. There are many things that RFK Jr could do to try to control this outbreak. I suspect he will do none of them.

When you’re disabled, friends & family tell you to “try harder”
They gaslight you & act like if you really wanted to get better, you could
Just do yoga, eat better, touch grass!
I worry RFK Jr will take the “try harder” approach & apply it nationwide. Catastrophe for those with disabilities
