It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines.

It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States.

And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

Maria Shriver, niece of JFK:

He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial.

C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

As I covered here, it's telling that they went after the hep B vaccine first. The narrative on the right is only "dirty" women have babies who get hep B. And standardized vaccines is an insult to their purity.

(FWIW: half of infant transmission is not maternal)

The end goal is eugenicist. RFK and his ilk know that this will make vaccines more expensive and time-consuming — and therefore marginalized children are most likely to fall through the cracks.

This is about killing kids who aren't born to privilege.

The plan, which is not finalized, suggests children get fewer shots and shifts to a model telling parents to consult doctors to make their own vaccine choices.

The Trump administration reversed a Biden-era ban on antipersonnel land mines except on the Korean Peninsula.

The memo, signed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, says the reversal would give the U.S. military a “force multiplier” against enemies.

When you are priced out of health insurance, remember who's responsible when you vote in 2026.
MAGA House Republicans slammed the door on affordable health care.

By a 204–203 vote, the GOP-controlled House blocked a Democratic bill to extend ACA subsidies.

Leadership cut the vote short, even as members were still trying to vote.

The anger and outrage is real

Democrats forced the issue. The discharge petition has the votes. ACA tax credits are on the table now.

If House Republicans block this, they own every dropped plan and every spiking premium.
