Accurate. His enabling of corporations' worst behaviors, his attitude toward the LGBTQ+ community and the AIDS epidemic, his attitude toward welfare and stereotypes around it are why we're dealing with such a rigged, hateful society. That shit echoes.

Watching the 1994 version of Miracle on 34th Street for the 30thish time...

The most unrealistic thing about this movie for parents is not that Santa Claus exists...

It's the perfectly quaffed (sp?) hair and forever tidy and matching outfits of Susan.

Cassidy’s “yes” to confirm RFK Jr. has to be the most impactful vote by a single senator in the 21st century, right? Only other one I can recall that comes close is McCain saving the ACA.

Americans being sick is 💯 % crucial to their Project 2025 goals.

While it would be easy to blame Trump voters, I think the blame falls squarely on two men: Mitchell McConnell and John Roberts.

They had the power to stop this and chose not to, and Americans will die as a result.

The federal vaccine committee has voted to end the recommendation that all newborns be immunized at birth against hepatitis B.

This committee has zero credibility and the process for this vote was chaotic.

Please instead follow guidance from expert organizations The American Academy of Pediatrics.

Who could have predicted this??

Um, 🙋‍♀️.
When asked on Wednesday why the panel would target the Hep B vaccine, Cassidy said of Kennedy’s HHS: “The best I can tell is that they have a prejudice against science. That’s the best I can tell.”

Umm...thanks, Bill. Any thoughts on why we are in this mess?

Based on this post alone, I'm grateful I had a conflict that prevented me from watching.

Early in this ACIP meeting, Vicky Pebsworth blamed gay men, promiscuous women, urban residents, and immigrants for spreading HBV in the U.S.

Then Evelyn Griffin said, out loud, that “illegal immigrants” are to blame.

This committee should be DISBANDED and exiled to science Siberia.

Not to mention the elimination of PEPFAR and USAID.

I loathe this administration.
Today is World AIDS Day

The disease has killed 44 million people

The State Department:

“The US Government will not be commemorating World AIDS Day this year.”

It’s disrespectful to everyone who lost their life. Everyone who lost a friend, partner or loved one. Everyone currently living with HIV.

Oh look, my ideal evening...
In Iceland, books are exchanged as Christmas Eve presents. Then you spend the rest of the night in bed reading them and eating chocolate. Sounds perfect to me.

It shouldn’t take a slur that impacts you personally, or losing your healthcare or SNAP, or being forced to sell your farm, or having to watch a loved one get unjustly detained and deported...to walk away from a madman.

Cruelty isn’t strength.

Reject it.

Always.

Unexpected upside of potty training your toddler...

Hearing "Good job, Mommy!" each time I use the restroom.

Honestly validating.

This is such an avoidable tragedy. My heart breaks for their families.
A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...
