Surely they’ll do something about the hundreds of thousands of kids who have died or ended up with serious medical complications because of COVID19 then, right??? RIGHT!?!?
Vinay Prasad of the FDA claims that he has proof that 10 children died from COVID19 vaccines, so the FDA will now target flu shots, look at whether people should receive multiple vaccines at the same time, and make the vaccine approval process significantly more difficult.
FDA to impose strict new vaccine requirements, claiming child covid shot deaths
Vinay Prasad, the nation’s top vaccine regulator, said his team concluded that coronavirus shots were linked to children’s deaths, necessitating a new approach.

Three babies in Kentucky have died of whooping cough.

They weren’t vaccinated and neither were their mothers.

This is RFK Jr’s legacy. A trail of dead kids who never had a chance.

They didn’t get to decide about vaccination. Adults chose for them & they paid with their life.

Sarah Hurwitz is so close to getting it "Anything you try to say to [younger Jews], they are hearing it through this wall of carnage. So I want to give data and information and facts and arguments, and they are just seeing in their minds carnage, and I sound obscene."
I'm struck by this clip of former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz saying Holocaust education has backfired in part because people Palestinians as victims: "They think the lesson of the Holocaust is…you fight the big powerful people hurting the weak people."

Today, after the Coast Guard lifted a ban on swastikas and nooses as symbols of hate, and after President Trump called for the execution of members of Congress, it is time for every American to decide. Who will you be?

Trump's DOJ confirmed 97.4% of people ICE has been arresting in Chicago have no criminal record whatsoever.

The state is using its power to terrorize a community. Worst of all, Chicago is not an isolated example and these abuses are not stopping at U.S. borders.

She was a perfect example of why other people need to wear masks even if they don’t personally think Covid will hurt them”

THEY PEPPER SPRAYED A BABY

Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago
Arianna Sofia Veraza and her parents were driving to Sam's Club for milk, eggs and diapers yesterday when they heard helicopters and horns blaring yesterday. They had turned around to leave when a federal agent pepper-sprayed them through a car window.

By the way, this has been the Democrats party for decades. They’ve skated by for years on this “at least we’re not republicans” bullshit, meanwhile enabling them at every turn.

This is just the time during which you can ill afford their feckless ways.

this morning, ICE went into a Spanish language immersion daycare and took a teacher from the building in front of screaming and crying kids and parents at dropoff and the daycare had to shut down for the day (near Lane Tech, where they were yesterday). Really hoping today's "theme" is not "daycare."

O'DONNELL: Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?

TRUMP: No. I think they haven't gone far enough.

I hope Portland and Oregon appeal en banc ASAP. This is a ridiculous ruling.
Two Trump-appointed judges of the Ninth Circuit let Trump send the troops into Portland, pausing another Trump appointee's TRO.

The only non-Trump appointee denounces the "political theater" behind the deployment, calling for an en banc review to stop it. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Notice the difference?

Also Israel has killed dozens of Palestinians since this “ceasefire” began. Including a beloved journalist named Saleh Aljafarawi who was only 28 years old.

He spent this genocide chronicling life in Gaza. And they murdered him while claiming peace.

The acting CDC director has finally signed off on the vaccine advisory panel's recommendations for the COVID vaccines.

While the CDC is trying to sell this as a win for antivaxxers, in reality this means that COVID vaccines will be more accessible than they have been in recent weeks.
