I wonder how God feels knowing Eric Trump had to save him.

Eric Trump: "We're saving Christianity. We've saving God. We've saving the family unit. We're saving this nation. I mean, DEI is out of the window, Benny. You no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national anthem. You no longer have Budweiser going woke as hell. All of this is dead."

Update: After WGN-TV producer Debbie Brockman was thrown to the ground, arrested by ICE, and accused of throwing objects at them, she was released without charges. It's all about intimidation, and Brockman did not relent. Thanks for being brave!

Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.
