This is exactly what churches should be doing, calling out injustice.

📌 Lake Street Church Nativity: a bold social justice statement with ICE-like Roman soldiers, the Virgin Mary in a gas mask, baby Jesus zip-tied, Joseph on the ground, pushing viewers to think about immigration.

This really is grotesque: they went through years-long citizenship processes and are now being denied simply because if the country they are from. It’s formalized bigotry.
“She showed up as scheduled, and when she arrived, officers were asking everyone what country they were from, and if they said a certain country, they were told to step out of line and that their oath ceremonies were canceled.”

IRW — a Pulitzer-winning nonprofit newsroom at American — and @thebarbedwire.com traced the history of anti-trans legislation. Houston conservatives realized homophobia didn’t fly anymore, weaponized girls’ safety, and parroted segregationist language. It worked.

TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded

A lot of actual vaccine policy is set by states, not the federal government. We -relied- on ACIP, but we don't have to rely on it.

This is obviously bad, but it isn't "measles for everyone!"

2.) Insurance companies have said that they will continue to cover vaccines covered in the schedule in 1 - you will just need to be more active with your pediatrician to make sure that they're working with you.

3.) Blue states are not meaningfully changing vaccine requirements for schooling.

I do want to note three things that have happened in the wake of what ACIP is becoming to hopefully put some panicked nerves at ease.

1.) The American Association of Pediatrics is publishing their own schedule that matches the one before this goat rodeo.

Watching everybody freak out over this while just sipping coffee thinking “I know this sucks but we dodged such a bullet that the Paramount bid didn’t win.”

A sale was happening no matter what. And would you folks honestly prefer Comcast or Para/Skydance won? WHY?
