The EPA is starting to allow the use of pesticides containing PFAS on food.

The move is part of an effort to roll back the regulation of what are called "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.

MUST SEE: Congresswoman Schrier nails conspiracy theorist and unfortunate HHS Secretary, RFK Jr., on the value of vaccines—and it’s glorious.

Schrier also happens to be the first pediatrician in Congress.

“Aligned with national priorities”. How very authoritarian of them. What could possibly go wrong. I will never forgive those who voted for this, and those who stayed home.
No more waiting to get a drug approved in the US.

All you have to do is bend the knee.

FDA commissioner will now issue vouchers to companies he finds aligned w national priorities to shorten their drug application review time to 1-2 months instead of standard 10-12 months.

See how fascism works?

Hey there Scott Walker. I noticed you deleted this after learning that in fact the shooter was from the right. I don’t think it matters either way, violence is violence, so I’m waiting for you to tweet the same thing with corrected facts?

Cuz you’re uh, to use your words, “being silent.”

States that are committed to following science - REAL science - should form joint interstate task forces to help craft sensible policies to protect our public health.

We are still at risk of another pandemic. With the CDC being destroyed from within, we need state departments of health to step up.

One consequence of tolerating pseudoscience is that people die when its legitimatization becomes baked into our culture, health care systems, and institutions.
