Remember: RFK Jr. fired his last CDC director because she refused to ram through his anti-vax agenda.

Yesterday, RFK Jr.’s handpicked vaccine skeptics threw out DECADES of settled science — and Donald Trump gave a thumbs-up.

This will hurt American kids and families.
CDC advisory panel rolls back universal hepatitis B vaccine recommendation
The change upends decades of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidance and goes against widespread public health consensus.

It's been a number of years since we've been to Chicago. Definitely a better trip now with kids. ♥️

Visited most of the museums again this time around. We are all going to miss the great food!

A few days ago, President Trump issued an executive order seeking to block all federal funding to NPR, the latest in a series of threats to media organizations across the country.

Another half marathon in the books!

Running is such a humbling activity. You can't do better than your own best and you're given the opportunity to learn and improve with each run. Running also forces you to sit with your thoughts - however difficult. ♥️

May I suggest something radical? Have mercy on people. Even on here.

What’s happening is unprecedented, so politicians, journalists, public servants etc are doing their best to adjust. Not doing exactly what you think they should doesn’t mean they’re giving up or giving in.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too.

EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them.

My heart breaks for the victims and families of the passengers and crew from last night’s midair collision between an American Airlines regional flight from Wichita and a military helicopter outside DC’s Reagan National Airport.

May God bless them all.

One problem that plagues most American churches is they use a collection of documents written 2,000+ years ago in multiple ancient languages as a 21st century English how-to guide by quoting tiny snippets instead of asking what the narrative, historical, and social context of those words might be.
Considering how strongly the Bible is anti-wealth, pro-immigrant, anti-power, pro-empathy, and very socialist, it’s curious just how many self-identifying “Christians” stand in opposition to that.

Just finished watching The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live and loved it. The Walking Dead felt like it has matured a bit.

We used to watch The Walking Dead together in college.. This felt like meeting back up with old friends. 🙂 #thewalkingdead #theoneswholive

There's something sad and beautiful about real Christmas trees. Amputated husks that we decorate, celebrate, and admire in passing.
