Trump is not the problem; he’s the symptom. Republicans could have chosen someone else as their candidate but they didn’t. I’m back to give Republicans hell!

My basic points are:
1- that’s not easy
2- they’ve way overplayed their hand in year one
3- even if they fail they will hurt and kill a lot of people
4- throwing them out in 2026 and 2028 won’t be enough, we need to think about what comes after www.liberalcurrents.com/we-are-going...

RFK Jr’s HHS endorsed personal belief vaccine exemptions. We’ve been here before:
2015, California.
School vaccine “requirements” let parents opt out for any personal belief. In some counties, kindergarten MMR rates dropped to 50%.

A basic principle of campaigning is to set the terms early and force your opponents to follow you. If you do it they'll almost always come out smaller. Pritzker is doing that.
Pritzker: "We don't want troops on the streets of American cities. That's un-American and frankly the president ought to know better. This one doesn't seem to. He hasn't read any books. He doesn't seem to understand the Constitution or the laws."

For decades American Politics has missed or ignored the major political challenges to the U.S. political mainstream (neoconservatism, Tea Party, far right). Even now, there is no major rethink while the use of euphemisms like “populism” and “racially conservative” obscure rather than explain things.

George Washington inoculated his soldiers against smallpox at Valley Forge by taking the pus from smallpox lesions and smearing the pus into wounds cut into healthy soldiers. The mortality rate from this method would be unacceptable today, but don’t give RFKjr. any ideas.
RFK Jr cut half a billion dollars in research funding for mRNA vaccines.
He & Marty Makary claim mRNA vaccines are “risky” so they’ll shift to “traditional, older” vaccine tech that’s “safer.”
Guess what?
We used to immunize people by blowing powdered smallpox scabs up their noses.

This is unfathomably shameful. How do we even have to debate this? Why would anyone ever again be so foolish as to trust or help the United States if this is how we treat people who risk their lives on our behalf?
An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.

The brutal handcuffing of Senator Padilla is an affront to democracy. I’m joining House Democrats to march to Senator Thune’s office and to demand that he protect his Colleagues from this out-of-control authoritarian onslaught.

I don’t think people understand narcissistic personality disorder. When you take away their ability to create drama, that is when you have the power. Until then, they control the situation. We’re not dealing with a functioning government like we did during the civil rights movement. 1/
