What if we #resist? What if RFK Jr. reacted to his cousin’s terminal cancer as JFK reacted to his baby’s death? www.statnews.com/2025/11/26/t... via @statnews.com
What if RFK Jr. reacted to his cousin’s terminal cancer as JFK reacted to his baby’s death?
When President Kennedy’s newborn son died in 1963, it galvanized research. A new Kennedy family tragedy should spur RFK Jr. to support cancer research, not cut it.

Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not
a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term.
Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms.
Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊

Congress has provided a contingency plan for SNAP to keep the program going for years in case of a shut down. The USDA sneakily took the plan down. Now blue states are suing to continue benefits for their constituents.
Where is the money going?

People should not act surprised, especially the right wing and anyone who voted for Trump.
We warned them. They did not listen. And now they choose to forget.
Don't let them.

Visited the Bridgehouse Chicago River Museum the other day. This is a unique little museum in the bridge tower of the Dearborn street bridge. I took my microbiology class so they could learn about the history and ecology of the Chicago River and its reversal.

This is what RFK Jr wants to get rid of🤦🏼♀️. In the mean time, if he or one of his wealthy friends develops cancer, they will be hopping on a plane to another country because they’re cutting cancer research here.

The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.

Really sorry about the passing of Ryne Sandberg. I have many happy memories of going to Wrigley Field with my dad and watching him play.
