Omigawsh you guys. Skip the Senate, this lady needs to be Surgeon General and Secretary of Keeping It Real.
We went so viral this week I’m worried RFK Jr. is going to start telling people to take vitamin A and ivermectin to get rid of me.

Spoiler alert: it won’t work for the measles and it won’t work for me

🧡 It's National Gun Violence Awareness Day. Women in the US are 28x more likely to be killed by guns than women in other high-income countries.

TODAY, I #WearOrange to honor the victims & survivors of gun violence + bring attention to this uniquely American crisis.

I am wearing orange today to express my strong commitment to ending the gun violence public health crisis.

Gun violence is the leading cause of death for our kids and teens. This is NOT acceptable. We can and must do better to make sure our kids and communities are safe. #wearorange
