To the surprise of no one, Head #antivaxxer still pushing debunked theories and causing public harm, hysteria, and disinformation.
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. personally directed the CDC to update its website to contradict its longtime guidance that vaccines don’t cause autism, he told The New York Times in an interview published Friday. https://cnn.it/3Xbt4rq

No surprise as the entire current political environment is built entirely on racism and blaming “other.”
Republicans are at odds about how to handle the white-nationalist influencer Nick Fuentes’s encroachment into their ranks, @alibreland.bsky.social writes. He asked Fuentes about being the center of a crisis in American conservatism:

President Trump’s move to drop tariffs on groceries such as coffee, beef, bananas, and tomatoes — contradicting his claims that the levies weren’t raising prices — shows he is on the defensive over his signature policy initiative.

This is real. Our govt is Tweeting like a 14 year old and calling Americans imbecilic morons. We worry about children being bullied but this is the example set by the U.S. GOVERNMENT. This is so shameful. I’m embarrassed for any of you that think this is okay or make excuses for it.
