Robert F. Kennedy can remove all the seed oils from all the food in America.

It’s not going to make up for dismantling Mercury Air Toxics standards, undoing car and truck pollution restrictions, rolling back chemical safety regulations, and otherwise covering the country in fossil fuel pollution
"Make America Healthy Again" is dead
There is nothing RFK Jr. can do at the Department of Health to make up for what's happening at the EPA.

Yes, there have long been discussions about sex as a spectrum, not a binary. This is not new. Here's my review of a book about the medieval debate. www.academia.edu/83211724/Rev...

I agree with columnist Norbert Cunningham that NB's Public Health has failed to communicate the seriousness of COVID-19. The info is vague, contradictory, and lacks transparency, confusing the public. We need better leadership and stronger protection for vulnerable populations. #nbpoli

Saving the CBC isn't just about protecting your favourite program or personality. It's about preserving national unity -- and preventing Canada from being subject to a hostile foreign takeover. www.nationalobserver.com/2024/11/19/o...
Saving the CBC is really about saving Canada
Pierre Poilievre reportedly has plans to slash the CBC's budget. That would be a disaster for national unity.

Conservatives putting forth conservative policy ideas isn’t a threat to America. It is a clear and vital challenge to progressive liberalism and the federal bureaucracy.

We're working to create the appearance of healthcare progress by expanding access to already overburdened pharmacists and useless tele-care. These multiple additional points of ineffective administration will allow us to diversify our faults and further burden our detractors.
