The holidays are supposed to be a time to come together and celebrate with your loved ones, but we all know how that goes with a MAGA relative.

Having these #Thanksgiving convos can be intimidating, but after a year of Democratic wins, you should be ready to share the truth and help teach others.

A year ago, flyers promoting vaccines were prevalent across the Navajo Nation.

But as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has put his stamp on federal immunization policy, the Indian Health Service’s messaging on immunizations has taken a stark turn.

The Indian Health Service Is Flagging Vaccine-Related Speech. Doctors Say They’re Being Censored.
Officials have deemed terms like “immunizations” and “vaccines” risky “buzzwords” that require approval to be used in social media posts, pamphlets and presentations.

Despite knowing Clint Massie was abusing girls for years, church leaders never reported him to police.

“what happens when treatment is started even before Alzheimer's symptoms are evident: ‘If u look at the ppl who are treated in these trials, …the earlier stage u go, the better off they do. Some of them actually have been stable. And so, what this suggests is that timing is critically important’.”🧪
🧪A clinical trial for Alzheimer's has shown that removal of amyloid plaques in early stage of the disease slows cognitive decline; in particular, a 30% improvement. However, it doesn't stop dementia, it slows it down.

This comes at a time when budget cuts have affected research on this disease.

If the Biden administration had sent federal agents to do a law enforcement operation 10X milder in a white suburban neighborhood in order to apprehend a serial pedophile and violent domestic abuser who happened to be a white Christian pastor, the MAGA crew would have reduced the country to rubble.
NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.
