Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

shit like this is the core of the damage the social internet has done to us

we have replaced actual expertise with "some dude with a podcast who makes you feel like his buddy while he bullshits into a microphone" and now a ton of people think that measles and chicken pox are the same
Yeah, this dum dum is talking about chicken pox.

Anyway, it's very cool and awesome that he has so much cultural and political influence.

1970—no fault divorce finally legalized, female suicide rates drop 20%

1974—Equal Credit Opp Act passes, women finally have basic access to finances

1993—Marital rape finally criminalized

Call me old school but countering record high suicide, financial imprisonment, & suffocating DV IS Liberation

The American culture I was born and raised in tells me that the so-called "heritage American" fucking sucks.
Once you’re an American citizen, you are in fact free to spew venom or shower praise on your American ancestors, no matter how much the pathetic legal hacks rationalizing the MAGA madness might contort themselves.

There’s no two-tiered citizenship here and anyone who insists otherwise can get bent
So what he's saying here is that Roger Taney is part of that adoptive family which must be worshipped but Frederick Douglass and David Walker and and William Lloyd Garrison and other fantastic spewers of venom against the founders were not

This has been the worst year.
• PEPFAR, the greatest lifesaving program in human history, saving tens of millions of lives, was ended.
• An actual secret police force roams our cities, snatching citizens and putting them beyond reach of lawyers and family.
• Trump has seized dictatorial powers …

Cutting property taxes for Oregonians affected by wildfires. Canceling planned freeway tolls. Pausing local new taxes in the Portland area. We have to keep going to make life more affordable for Oregonians.

He’s gilded the entire White House, slapped his name on both the Kennedy Center and Institute for Peace, installed a new Trump Gold Card, and now proposing a new “Trump class” of naval vessels.

I know we keep saying this is insane but this is seriously fucking insane.

Have to highlight the absurdity in a public discourse that holds the idea of systemic racism out as exotic and academic while also reporting that one of the two major parties in the country is making racism an explicit central pillar of their party identity.

Paramount-owned CBS abruptly canceled a story exposing the Trump administration's brutal deportations.

The reporter called it a "political decision."

Paramount needs Trump’s backing to buy Warner Bros. — including CNN.

Is that just a coincidence?

This looks like corruption.

I am not Christian and want nothing to do with Christianity, but I would vote for this man in a heartbeat.

While the media chums it up with Greene, reminder that she has a bill going before the House today to make it a *federal crime* to provide or advocate for healthcare for trans youth.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "What I'd like to see from the president is empathy for Americans. Donald Trump is a billionaire and he's the president. When he looks into a camera and says 'affordability is a hoax,' he's talking to Americans that are suffering and have been for many years now."

This is what passes for progressivism and climate policy in California. Jane Kim’s answer for elevated fire risk and actuarial risk? Put it on the public dime. Urban renters should bail out well to do exurban property owners and landlords in fire zones. FAIR plan is already a ticking time bomb!

Stephen Miller is an absolute disgrace to the Jewish people. He intentionally echoes Nazi German rhetoric from the 1930s.
