The #brainworms out here doing backflips trying to keep track of all of RFK Jrs nonsense:

KASIE HUNT: Over the summer you said, "There's no vaccine that's safe and effective". Do you still believe that?

RFK JR: "I never said that."

KASIE HUNT: "Play the clip."

@kairyssdal.bsky.social if tariffs ultimately reduce farm exports to the global community, this will result in an increase in the domestic pumpkin supply. Is it the most economically sound thing for us as a country to all get behind the pumpkin beer?

open.substack.com/pub/historyc... I grew up in Roxbury. I met General Woody when I was a kid. I was there 1/29/25 when the Boston City Council honored him. The other day I ran into him food shopping at the Prudential Star Market. I let everyone know a hero was there. He’s still feisty at 97.

Reminds me of this 1967 glossary of "Marxist" terminology disseminated by the "Massachusetts Friends of Rhodesia," a white Christian nationalist organization.

"Discrimination: A smear term used against people or actions which interfere with communist plans or objectives."

WATCH: “ @aoc.bsky.social is 6th from the bottom in net worth in Congress, and hasn’t traded a single stock since being in Congress.”

PSA: Anyone who won’t back a ban on congressional stock trading is unworthy of your vote, regardless of party.

Let me say it again:

Trans people deserve to play sports.
Trans people deserve health care.
Trans people deserve access to bathrooms.
Trans people deserve to be treated like human beings.

This Congresswoman loves you and will always have your back.
