RFK Jr. is not even close to being done with destroying public health. Republican Congresspeople are 100% behind him in this effort. Vote for public health.

HHS wants a new Medicare code that pays doctors extra only when they attribute a patient’s symptoms to a vaccine. Vaccine critics say doctors are paid to push vaccines. We aren’t. Under this code, we’d be paid to blame them. My new piece in @cidrap.bsky.social: www.cidrap.umn.edu/childhood-va...

Trump on data centers: "I say let them come in ... you should really be cool on data centers because you can make a fortune with the data centers" (Note the total silence of the crowd during this rant!)

Is this garbage talk, or the talking point when our polls have wild inconsistencies?

This is massive cope. Every publicly available indicator suggests that in almost every state the opposite is happening in net crossover.

The reason I think Trump is only campaigning in places like Alabama and Tennessee and Oklahoma is they don't want people to boo him.

🚨A technical error at the Texas Department of Public Safety has created a major backlog of voter registration applications, with some incomplete records dating back to 2025. If you recently registered to vote in Texas, now is a good time to double-check that your information is actually on file.

The fact that Blanche refused to terminate the slush fund in writing for Trump’s criminal cronies as well as his IRS immunity deal proves that his testimony at his confirmation hearing that these things were “dead” was always a lie. They were dead only until he got confirmed.

Where’s my local Antifa group meetup spot? I want in! (Blatant sarcasm)

Colette Delawalla, PhD@cdelawalla.bsky.social

This rhetoric—selecting several examples of “Antifa” groups engaging in violence—lays the groundwork for anyone deemed “anti Christian” or “woke” to thus be “violent” in their ways. It paints anyone who isn’t “one of us” as dangerous. They have been doing it with racial groups, now it’s thoughts.

Be interesting to hear the *real* story behind the Freedom Fuel gas stations Donald is promoting. Because, after weeks of accusing everyone of being a communist, state-run gas stations would be about as communist as you can get.

If the Democrats get the majority, they will pass a law banning gerrymandering, that and it will completely screw the Republicans since they have already gerrymandered the fuck out of most of the country after the last census. District 5 (Nashville) used to belong
