RFK Jr.'s claim that COVID vaccines are deadly? Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. In this new extraordinarily large study, vaccinated individuals had a 74% lower risk of death from severe COVID-19 and a 25% lower risk of all-cause mortality compared to those unvaccinated. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

I don’t accept it ….because it was based on lies.
Keir Starmer, "The Brexit vote was a fair democratic expression, and I will always accept that"

"The idea that leaving the EU was the answer to all our cares and concerns has clearly been proved wrong"

"That same spurious argument is now being made about the European Convention on Human Rights"

British sailors rescue German sailors from the Bismarck, because failure to assist survivors after a battle is a war crime. And ordering them killed is also a war crime. Yes, even in the "Gulf of America."

Great urgency in reviewing Epstein files. Then silence for three months. Then the July 6 “nothing to see here” memo.

Wonder what they found that led to panicked silence then attempted cover up?
The docs also reveal the number of hours the FBI devoted to the project, which required some agents to work nights and weekends. The FBI paid personnel $851,344 in overtime for working on the Epstein files between March 17 and March 22.

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

The SNAP contingency fund holds around $6 billion.

Trump refuses to spend it on the American people.

The same guy who just fast-tracked $40 billion to Argentina.

Trump thinks Argentina deserves our money while he lets Americans starve.

Some charts for those who don't know the extent of the US public (and private) investment in research (particularly in biomedical research) compared to other countries and institutions. The destruction of the US' scientific institutions has global implications.
