Robert F Kennedy Jr.’s Health and Human Services Department is changing vaccinations for your child.

Federal health officials reduced the number of vaccines recommended for all children from 17 to 11 last week.

A major American city is under siege by Nazis.

We pay the Nazis.

Because a child rapist convinced millions of selfish fucks that trans kids and reliable healthcare were their enemies.

Have you called your reps today? It’s going to take all of us.

Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

It's unbelievable! GoFundMe is allowing people to raise money for the legal defense of Renee Good's killer. Fundraisers for people accused of committing violent crimes are banned according to company policy. So why is this happening? GoFundMe needs to take them down. app.sosha.ai/s/QrXnUI1H
No fundraisers for Renee Good's killer

Artists at the Golden Globes last night added their voices to the chorus of people across the country demanding that ICE get out of our communities immediately.

When we all band together, we can make real change.

If you're standing adjacent to front of a vehicle, and you truly think you might be run over, you'd dive/move quickly to the side – you don't shoot the driver. This is true not only in the context of law enforcement training, it's human instinct.

He's lying.

ICE can’t function without help from the private sector. So we should force the private sector to stop helping.

🚨 Look at what they did to this man’s face. What in the fuck is Congress doing? When martial law DOES break out, it will be because you sat around while tyranny ran unchecked. And, ICE won’t give a shit about A VICTIM having a seated republican family member. ICE are animals.
