It's wholesome and oddly depressing to me that Al Gore, 77, not owing anyone shit, is still criss-crossing the globe full-time warning people about climate change, raising money for climate projects, mentoring the next generation of environmentalists, and generally being obsessed with this issue.

This is a great explanation about how the #immune response works and why #vaccines are so important. The gentleman also touches on the false equivalency on risk between getting a disease and the side effects of getting a vaccine.

The CDC's website made changes regarding #autism and vaccines. This alteration, made by political appointees without #CDC expert input, now falsely claims that the statement "Vaccines do not cause autism" is not evidence-based. This is a dangerous misrepresentation of scientific consensus.

I'm proud of Americans who are standing-up for #Immigrants. People are coming-out in #NorthCarolina to protest the presence of #ICE. The amount of people doing so gives me hope that we will not slide into a #dictatorship. #Resist

This is a really interesting take on Trump's urging of Congress to vote for the release of the Epstein files. Could this be his plan?

This is good news. I know some on the left want to fight fire with fire and #gerrymander states that would give #Dems an advantage to fight back. This seems to make us just lose our way though. Let #Republicans in #BlueStates know that their votes matter too. Win the good fight here. No?

Apparently there are people in state government who know gerrymandering is wrong. Not in the #NCGop but in other places.
