This frustrates me to no end...

We shouldn't be subjected to a moron who thinks Tylenol causes Autism to say the least...
The hard truth is that right now, our Secretary of Health is one of our nation’s biggest health threats and largest sources of health disinformation.

Realistically, we need RFK Jr. to be FIRED. At a minimum, he needs to answer to Congress for his attacks on public health.
Under RFK Jr., the CDC provides a megaphone to the anti-vaccine movement
Common anti-vaccine talking points were on display as the CDC’s immunization advisers repealed a hepatitis B birth vaccine recommendation and scrutinized the childhood schedule.

It really bothers me to see that people think that Trump is the messaih.

Getting a photo-op with a disabled person to make himself look better is classic.

This is why MAGA worships the ground he walks on.

There is absolutely ZERO excuse for this!!!
My constituent, Wilmer, was mauled by an ICE attack dog despite the fact that, as he has consistently explained, he was not resisting arrest or trying to flee—his wife and young children, all U.S. citizens, were forced to watch helplessly as Wilmer was violently attacked and dragged away.

For the life of me I cannot understand how, as a society, we can let our fellow human beings be so willfully cruel to other people who don't share the same values.

It bothers me that people who need the coats are being stripped of them for those who don't need those coats.

I am starting to wonder if our lawmakers may actually be starting to see eye to eye with this administration.

More and more I am hearing about a bipartisan effort to call out people who are trying to destroy what we have spent so long to maintain.

If we can just take the politics out...

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

One of the things I am learning about neurotypical & neurodivergent children is that parenting is vastly different and people tend to aside with traditional parenting because that is what they know. 9 years later I am still trying to find the manual for my Autistic son.

Isn't it weird how DOGE was supposed to eliminate wasteful government spending and yet we are hemorrhaging money now because of the loon in the Whitehouse who has left a path of destruction in his wake?

Tonight I was reminded that misinformation and disinformation is all around.

Remember to educate yourself and others.

I was reminded tonight by my mother-in-law who refuses to believe what I say when I even can provide proof.

Back in 2014 before my dad, who was a staunch Republican (plus conspiracy theorist & doomsday prepper) warned me about what is going on at this very moment in time.

It's up to our lawmakers to uphold the law & to back the voters at the same time.

I almost feel bad knowing that we will be enjoying one of Tom's relatives on Thanksgiving.

Yep, I hope Tom can forgive me.

Today would be a great day for Pam Bondi to release the Epstein files.

Senator Elissa Slotkin is sounding the alarm on how the Trump regime may be attempting to use the CIA on American citizens. Guys, this is another serious story.

I think it is safe to say that Trump would be best referred to Agent Orange given his increasingly unhinged and dangerous rhetoric.

Those of us who live with complex trauma in our lives end up bottling it up and it's not because we want to, it's because we feel that we are not heard, we are not seen, and we are having to live in the shadows of society just to survive or cope. #mentalhealthmatters #CPTSD #PTSD #selfpreservation
