The NIH shutdown isn't temporary. It's the first step in stopping all research on infectious diseases and any other research that RFK Jr dislikes.
I think the better strategy is to relentlessly hammer the truth:
1) RFK Jr. is going to stop research into lifesaving cures
2) And he has no experience managing massive, complex programs like Medicare & Medicaid that provide the care you/your family rely on

The only people who've ever held Trump meaningfully accountable over the last nine years have been ordinary Americans and they've spent that entire time being lectured to and berated by elites who've failed to do anything.

Yes, I know that guy still stands a good chance of winning the election in November, but this is your regular reminder that you can't fight a long fight without stopping to enjoy your victories or you will burn out to a cinder.

12 random citizens just risked their lives and the safety of their families to stand up for democracy.
if you don't think that's even a little inspiring, I don't really know what to say.

Verstappen was a great villain when other teams had slightly better cars but now that he has the best car, he is simply a charisma black hole that F1 should mildly sabotage for the good of the sport’s narrative and watchability imo

Yes to this! I stopped saying it around certain people because they always thought I must’ve meant this.
The people who say "'bless your heart' means 'fuck you' in the South" must not be Southern. "Bless your heart" is contextual, often sincere, and contains multitudes.
