Good News! 28 states have publicly rejected Kennedy’s vaccine schedule.
They choose to follow evidence-based guidance from experts like the American Academy of Pediatrics or the American Academy of Family Physicians.

Two days ago, we discovered Trump has engaged in the most corrupt behavior of any president in history—giving secret technology to China's ally in exchange for the Trump family getting half a billion dollars.
And nobody is still talking about it. #Corruption

I’m normally a spectator when it comes to using my #hamradio privileges but with all that’s happening in the news I think I might go attend a couple of club events this field day (1/24) and get Winlink working on HF. Good insurance if a disaster strikes.

I consider Trump-Russia to be one and the same. He's been working for RU since the '80s. Well documented: KGB/RU mob groomed him, buying Trump Tower condos for illegal activities; he laundered money in his casinos. Made it to Reagan's Iran-Contra deals. Par for the Trump/Epstein criminal enterprise.

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

Si, correcto! It won’t change the message one bit.
When Trump drops dead (hopefully sooner rather than later), let's all party and have a fun, cathartic celebration, but shit ain't gonna change, not as long as this Republican, or ANY Republican, holds power.

I picked these up today while sitting in my car.
I was using an ATS-Mini si4732 radio with a small amplifier attached to a 20m ham stick style antenna. I fed the audio into my phone via an earbud pressed into the microphone hole very high tech #sstv #si4732 #atsmini #hamradio
