WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

Just a reminder before the “big announcement” today.
Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of Autism came in 1943.
Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s.
Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes Autism isn’t someone that should be taken seriously.

I took Tylenol as needed throughout my pregnancy. I am a doctor. I order Tylenol for pregnant women regularly. Tylenol is safe in pregnancy. RFK Jr is ignoring a huge recent well-done study because he doesn't like the answer it gives. There is no causality between Tylenol and autism.
You have no idea how much I despite these anti-science dipshits for making pregnant women terrified of taking (safe, mild, proven) pain relief.

🧵Jonas Salk's son, Jonathan, was a neighbor and good friend of mine.
I spent many nights hearing about polio and how it had crippled America.
His father was old by then, but I've never forgotten the many stories they shared of the terror and death that had raced through our nation.

"Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 1950s & 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone." — Michael Okuda

Shock announcement: NC Senator Thom Tillis just announced he is retiring, less than 24 hours after he opposed starting debate on his party’s mega bill.
His seat is up in 2026, and having it be an open seat sure changes the calculus and Democratic chances of flipping it.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Kids as young as 9 can get it; our son is 9 and we’re arranging for him to get the HPV vaccine. RFK Jr and his kooky anti-vaxx ACIP folks are coming for it 😢
Do not wait to get your kids the HPV vaccine. It prevents several cancers, and it is a favorite target of anti-vax grifters, including one of the new members of ACIP.
Get the vaccine while you still can.
Get the vaccine while you still can.
‼️ Kulldorff is getting rich from anti-HPV vaccine litigation:
“At a deposition in October, Kulldorff testified that the plaintiffs paid him $400 an hour & he had already billed for ~ $33,000 in legal work on the case through late September. He said he also received a $4,000 retainer in the NC case”
