Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

Donald "No Responsibility" Trump is trying to blame Biden and Pete Buttigieg for current air traffic control problems.
Meanwhile, back in the real world . . . Republicans in Congress REFUSED Buttigieg’s call for funding more air traffic controllers. And Trump/DOGE then stepped in and fired many.

If you don’t understand biomedical research, the claim that “fetal tissue” is in vaccines may sound scary.
But it’s a lie.

Breast cancer diagnoses rose by over 300% between 1973 and 1992.
Was there a breast cancer epidemic?!
NO.
Mammograms were implemented for screening in 1976.
PREVALENCE is a function of being able to correctly diagnose something.
This is also about autism.

Autism doesn’t need to be “cured” - that’s ableist. And it isn’t an epidemic.
We are better at recognizing autism today, esp less stereotypical cases.
Using health agencies to spread dangerous lies is egregious. RFK Jr is wholly unqualified and should be removed immediately.

hi, cis folks!
if we *are* going to talk ACA, RFK's HHS proposed a rule to remove *all trans care* from ACA essential health benefit status.
~25mil people are insured by ACA & if 1% are trans, that's 250,000 people who'd lose access to care.
that's bad! take 2 minutes to stand with trans people.🧵

-You cannot legally deport people without due process.
