This is the worst case scenario that everybody was worried about
It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.

It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.

And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

Opinion | I'm Trump's former lawyer. Jack Smith should be celebrated, not vilified.
John Dowd: Jack Smith was once my adversary in a high-profile investigation of a Republican client. Smith was fair, impartial and fearlessly committed to the facts and the law.

It’s ironic that the same people who applauded DOJ for indicting Jim Comey & Tish James are complaining there was a lack of evidence to search Mar-a-Lago.

“Giving money to the people” is code for cutting a check to a health savings account.

That’s not health insurance. It’s smoke in mirrors. $2K in your pocket won’t cover a fraction of a major medical need (procedure, hospitalization, ER visit).

Don’t buy the nonsense.

And raise your daughters never to accept this treatment.
It's probably a pipe dream, but I hope that the language Trump uses (especially when talking to or about women) doesn't just become an accepted thing in political discourse in our country.

Raise your sons to be better than that.

China was the largest export market for American farmers in 2024. They bought 27 metric tons of soybeans last year. They stopped buying in 2025 when Trump started his trade war. These are simple, obvious, basic facts. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Leavitt: "President Trump convinced President Xi to continue purchasing again American soybeans, which is something China wasn't doing under the last administration because they had no respect for President Biden or the country at the time."
