Please tell your Senate colleagues that this is exactly the absolute worst time to cave to the GOP on vague promises of a theoretical vote on ACA subsidies.

Swing state and district Republicans are going to be scared. Bad move that crushes last night's high.

Judge Immergut quotes James Madison from the
Records of the Federal Convention of 1787: “A standing
military force, with an overgrown Executive will not long be safe companions to liberty. The
means of defence [against] foreign danger, have been always the instruments of tyranny at
home.”

Superintendent Ian Roberts of Des Moines Public Schools was detained Friday by federal agents. The reason for his detention was not clear, according to the school district.

Roberts’ whereabouts are also, alarmingly, unclear. trib.al/ifiCl4B

It’s still not clear why Dr. Ian Roberts was detained—or where he currently is.

I concur. RKF Jr. fights like hell for quackery. Democrats need to fight like hell for science, health, and rationality.
Wow. New NBC poll finds 78% support vaccines, including 72% of independents and 67% of Republicans.

As I keep trying to argue, Democrats should polarize the shit out of the vaccine/public health debate. Make people take sides. It will split Republicans and MAGA.

See this:
Trump/RFK are decapitating our public health system, a pillar of American greatness. So Dem Govs should scour every corner of the law for creative new ways to defend their people from this madness.

Dems should polarize this debate to the max.

Thoughts on this here:

It's like we're living a nightmare. We have conspiracy wackos running our nation's most important health agencies. And people are going to die.

This shouldn't be another left/right, red/blue issue. RFK Jr. has to go. And Republicans should just say what they know is true.
