Children in Texas are coming into the hospital with liver damage and other adverse sequelae as a result of overdoses of vitamin A parents believed would cure measles.

Who suggested dosing kids with vitamin A?

Pubmed is down. Will muskrat let it come back? Are the Christian right purging all research they find challenging? Is RFK Jr pulling all research on effectiveness of vaccines? Are all pronouns being purged from the articles? The Dark Ages 2.0 started in the US.

The only reason Nazis are being so vocal is that they think they have the backing of the State, which traditionally has a monopoly on violence.
We don’t have to put up with this.
All it takes is a little focused violence enacted by more people than can be easily arrested.

1/ View as a veteran and a person who has done work with contractors for USAID. The lies being told about this agency serves two purposes - 1) to lead the US to war and the 2) target internal opposition to dear leader (think the 1918 Sedition Act).

Can we dispense with this “unfounded claims” shit finally?

He lies, pathologically.

Period.
President Trump amplified unfounded claims on Thursday that the government had paid Politico and other news media outlets for positive coverage of Democrats. The conspiracy theories appear to have been generated by records showing that agencies paid for subscriptions.
