Senator Raphael Warnock destroys RFK Jr. who said he supports the work of the CDC:

"You have compared to the CDC's work to Nazi death camps. You've compared it to sexual abusers in the Catholic church. You also said that many of them belong 'in jail.' For me, those are disturbing characterizations"

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive
