Quite a few of the "anti-vaxer" parents I have crossed paths with have actually vaccinated their kids to some extent, which is surprising to me, and perhaps a sign of the mixed messages they are receiving. All the more reason why this administration will be damaging.
Clearly RFK Jr. is not aware the individual pediatricians he thinks parents should discuss vaccines with are the same pediatricians who have been collectively calling out his bull$hit for decades.
Vaccines are safe and effective.
Pass it on.

There's been a lack of trust in government for a long time. The irony is that with increased political polarization there seems to be a greater willingness to cheerlead for one's side despite this mistrust. The double irony is that the Epstein issue is as nonpartisan as it gets these days.
Ro Khanna: "They look weak. They look duplicitous. They look like they're concealing things. And they look incompetent…It's horrible for government. The biggest issue in this country is a lack of trust in government…This is the kind of thing that erodes that trust."

I’ve been told this is impossible and Latinos simply do not identify with each other enough across national origin or geography. Maybe so. But if I was going to imagine how to do it, I’d probably start with a government that uniformly attacked Latinos regardless of their preferred identity.

These idiots have no idea that the coast north of San Francisco is extremely rural and isolated. I have a better idea, put all the wackos in Shasta County and let them do Shasta County. This is the no masks unless you are ICE crowd.

#Antifa will not jump out of the back of a Penske rental truck dressed in uniform. #Antifa is everywhere around you in the determined faces of normal people. MAGA just inadvertently rebirthed the warriors of WWII, of the Civil Rights movement, of the American Dream.

Interesting evolution of the Kirk shooter story with Governor Cox stating Robinson had a trans girlfriend. Imagine being a gay kid growing up in a MAGA family? This is why you lead with love, not hate. The GOP will continue to target and marginalize the "other," now probably more than ever.

@bsky.app got a spanking from Governor Cox: “Discord, 4chan, Twitter, Bluesky—these things are really hacking our brains and hijacking our agency."
I guess a bunch of liberals in one place is pretty scary. And I do get a lot of cat posts in my feed, which as a dog person is unsettling.

Several social media posts erroneously claim that Mayor Brandon Johnson deployed the salt trucks along Chicago’s expressways to block ICE operations. But that's not true.

The salt trucks were positioned in Grant Park for the Taste of Chicago festival and weekend protests. Several social media posts are erroneously claiming Mayor Brandon Johnson deployed the salt trucks along Chicago's expressways to create a block ICE operations.

There is a lack of understanding of discipline here that any school administrator could see right through. If the approach is to be the Enforcer, when the Enforcer isn't there, the behavior problems will return. Trump will state "Mission Accomplished," move on, and nothing will have changed.
