Girls ages 16 years or younger who received HPV vaccines were 80% less likely than their unvaccinated counterparts to develop cervical cancer.

Evidence from 23 studies showed that HPV vaccination lowered the incidence of high-grade cervical precancers.

This is almost word for word what xenophobes in the 1930s and 1940s said about Miller's Jewish ancestors and relatives. He's so hateful he couldn't possibly recognize that of course.

It is worth remembering that these are people who loyally fought alongside us for 20 years while Miller was enduring the harrowing experience of writing press releases

Four of Trump's five children have an immigrant mother, and the one who doesn't is married to the son of two immigrants.
Trump makes the outrageous claim that “most” immigrants, which include over 25 million U.S. citizens, “are on welfare, from failed nations, or from prisons, mental institutions, gangs, or drug cartels.”

As insulting as the “deplorables” comment, and on Thanksgiving day no less.

When you realize someone repeatedly lies, stop listening to them, giving them credibility, trusting their judgment, pursuing their priorities, investing in their vision, following their lead.
If voters had done this simple thing a few times in the last decade, America would be a far better place.

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!

Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

This admin has no solutions to difficult problems. Its psychology is that of a classic bully – find someone weak and preen about being tough in comparison.
Health care plans, ending wars, effectively managing an economy, or productive foreign relations require sustained engagement. They won't happen

The Epstein emails emphasize the importance of investigations and the corresponding devastation this admin has intentionally caused to the US justice system. The emails are an endless maze of rabbit trails, but investigators can correlate them with additional evidence to establish clear culpability.

I need everybody to read this and understand what’s going on. These are spouses of US citizens in the country legally. They have entry clearance and green cards, they’ve passed background checks and have no criminal records. ICE is taking them anyway.

While the right lose their goddamn minds about a lone wolf doing something horrendous in DC today, let’s not forget that last week in the White House they all gushed over a genocidal, journalist murdering tyrant whose country financed 9/11.

this should go without saying but if you were one of the lucky few we did get out of Afghanistan during the withdrawal and we got you out because you'd been working with us, deportation back is likely a death sentence.

Just to be clear, this administration is now aggressively attacking, threatening, and investigating people who say the military and members of the administration must follow the law.

This admin is doing everything possible to alienate people who've served. Undeserved, it had the loyalty of many, but it shouldn't continue count on it after ignoring the Constitution they swore an oath to defend, gutting the VA, and trashing veterans who use their freedoms in ways it doesn't like.

Trump has shown he's more loyal to foreign interests than he is to the needs of Americans. And Republicans have shown they'll do nothing to stop him.

So glad the president will know all this about me
Markwayne Mullin on healthcare: "What the president would like to do is say, hey, if you take care of yourself -- you don't smoke, you don't dip, you're not drinking, you're not overweight, you're working out -- then you should pay less than the guy that obviously is not taking care of himself."

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.
