This does feel like a major crossing of the Rubicon – the world's best-funded and in many ways most powerful public health agency is now actively pushing disinformation.

I know there's a *lot* going on to care about at the moment, but this one really is significant, and matters well beyond the US.
The CDC website now disseminates disinformation about vaccines, claiming erroneously that infant vaccines might cause autism, when we know conclusively that they do not. It is difficult to overstate just how dangerous this is. www.cdc.gov/vaccine-safe...

This is good: With Trump/RFK destroying CDC, JB Pritzker's officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines from manufacturers and distributing them in-state themselves, source tells me.

Dem govs must step up and fill the void.

Members of my family were tortured and killed in the Holocaust because countries like Britain said it wasn't their problem. Everyone said never again. And here we are. It's sickening beyond belief.

It all starts making sense when you stop thinking of the Republican Party as a political movement and instead think of it as a criminal enterprise.

Sharp stuff as always from Monica.
The left accelerationist case for Trump paints him as a vile vessel who will, nevertheless, achieve important goals: (1) make the US less militaristic & (2) empower the Global South.

It makes intuitive sense bc Trump is weakening USG & Western alliances.

But it’s deeply naive. Here's why: 🧵

Oh look, Jay Bhattacharya, Trump & RFK Jr’s MAGA pick to lead NIH, was a member of this task force that recommends COVID vaccination should be halted. Halted 😳

Dr Bhattacharya was an early, vocal campaigner for RFK Jr—speaking at his rallies—so this tracks

51 have moved to state schools in January.

As I've repeatedly said the effects of VAT on fees are going to be minimal.

Would right wing commentators fulminating about Lou Haig as a fraudster who was mugged, thought her phone was stolen, subsequently discovered it, badly advised by her lawyer to plead guilty and discharged by the judge, care to comment on their hero Trump’s appointment of serial fraudster Kushner
"Mr. Kushner, 70, pleaded guilty in 2004 to 16 counts of tax evasion, a single count of retaliating against a federal witness and one of lying to the Federal Election Commission"
and so now he will be US ambassador to France

The announcement elevated Mr. Kushner, the father of President Donald J. Trump’s son-in-law and the recipient of a presidential pardon at the end of Mr. Trump’s first term.

Of all the horrors this man has enacted his mocking of disabled people sticks in my mind as a moral red line that should shame anyone who supports or excuses him. Other red lines are available.
How was this not the end of it, all the way back in 2015? Immoral filth. 💩 I know I always try to understand - it's my job - but I just don't get it.
