250+ year history of vaccines and inoculations having side effects and being better that not doing so. Ben Franklin blamed himself for his son’s death from pox because he didn’t get home in inoculate him.

Bernie Sanders and AOC are breaking records with their ‘Fight Oligarchy’ rallies.

AOC is knocking people over with her true words about Trump and his love of his billionaire friends.

Listen to her and RISE UP and speak out against Trump's obsession with making the rich richer and the poor poorer.

I just watched the Rachel @maddow.msnbc.com
Interview with Daniel Berulis and I have never seen anything so compelling, brave & terrifying in my life.

I'm afraid for this man, but so blown away by his courage.

Rachel lays out the story so clearly. We have traitors in the government.

"In Germany...antisemitism is used as a means of intimidating the population at large. It is a way of showing that the system is ruthless and will stop at nothing. Politically speaking pogroms are aimed at the onlookers. To see if anyone raises a finger."

TThis is getting ridiculous. So, your grant proposal might be discarded because you hypothesize that “we expect to find a more diverse B Cell Receptor repertoire in women under certain conditions” (I made this up).
