Could someone please tell RFKjr that PFAS cause autism. Tell them you read it on the internet.
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 PFAS — also known as "forever chemicals" because they don't break down easily in the environment.

Just out of words for how disheartening it all is.
Trump just ended a rule limiting a type of pollution that causes heart and lung disease.
The rule was expected to save thousands of American lives every year.

This is identical to Russia invading Ukraine. Illegally invading a country for their resources and likely killing thousands—if not more—is immoral and should not be supported by anyone with any shred of moral conscience.

Grim was the world and grey last night:
The moon and stars were fled,
The hall was dark without song or light,
The fires were fallen dead.
The wind in the trees was like to the sea,
And over the mountains’ teeth
It whistled bitter-cold and free,
As a sword leapt from its sheath.

Safety rules are written in blood. Scrapping them is generally a decision to kill people to increase profits
Trump’s Dept. of Transportation has:
• Scrapped possible limits on train/bus driver hours to keep them from falling asleep
• Delayed a rule to help prevent 9/11-style cockpit takeovers
• Proposed exempting school bus child-restraint systems from crash-protection rules

The Geiers were famous for using Lupron (a medical castration drug) on autistic boys to “ take the wolf out” as they put it in a long -vanished article that used to be on the NYT website. Vile and evil men.
The study in question was conducted by anti-vaxxers David Geier, who Kennedy hired to study vaccines and autism, and his father, Mark.
Neither one has a medical license. Mark is a former physician but his son, David, is not.
Both were disciplined for practicing medicine without a license in MD.

And everything that led to it feels way too familiar right now.
