I’ll never get over how, in an era when women’s rights and status are being attacked and eroded in law and culture alike, we were incessantly told that it was boys and men whose suffering we needed to attend to.
“I don't think people should be taking ... medical advice from me”, said RFK Jr. during his first hearing this morning.
I agree 100%, but since this the case, he should be removed from office by close of business today.

RFK Jr. says he would "probably" vaccinate his children for measles today
Kennedy contended his opinions on vaccines "are irrelevant."
The reason people constantly suggest that Dems "adopt moderate social positions" (which... end up not being "moderate" at all) is because they think that Dems won't lose votes by moving to the right. They are wrong in thinking this.
I’m calling on Secretary Kennedy to resign.
We are sick of it. He must go!
Spread the word. RFK Jr. is committing

I was reading the comments on a local news article about Medicaid cuts and a Missouri woman called having access to healthcare a “lifestyle” that isn’t meant for folks who can’t afford it.
I have never read anything more sad, or American, in my life…
"Only rich people deserve medical care" is something you would only hear in a backasswards country like America. Our civilized allies think this is shocking and sad.

My daughter’s speech therapist went out of business because Medicaid reimbursement rates were too low. We do not have Medicaid. I’m going to keep posting this until people understand that when Medicaid gets cut *everyone* loses services.
Still waiting for a single reporter to step up and point out that Biden was fixing this problem and Trump cancelled all the progress and new hires.
I expect I will die disappointed.
Duffy: "By the way, during covid, when people weren't flying, that was a perfect time to fix these problems."

this guy is out here proudly being a eugenicist freak while people at mainstream and "respectable publications" make excuses for him or even muse about whether he has a "few good points"
RFK Jr talking about the need for doctors to know how to treat measles for those who are unvaccinated.
“Only very sick kids should die from measles.”
No. They shouldn’t. That was the point of the vaccine. We eradicated the virus so children didn’t die.
Sick & disabled kids are not expendable!
So, I wrote up my "bookmark this response" to the "it doesn't matter" folks.
My response: It does matter.

Congress is considering H.R. 845, a bill that would remove Endangered Species Act protections for gray wolves across the lower 48 states and block any judicial review, effectively opening the door to hunting that could drive the species toward extinction.

(1/3) A string of Northern CA counties have recently passed or called for emergency resolutions asking the state to give local sheriffs the power to kill wolves. These actions are concerning on many levels, + these counties continue to churn out misinformation (+ blatant lies) about wolves.
At this point it's almost annoying listening to journalists trying to constructively engage with anyone in this shitass administration. You should only be talking to them in the voice of a circa 2004 Daily Show correspondent

Stephen Miller, White House deputy chief of staff for policy, has begun baselessly claiming that birthright citizenship is a massive welfare scam.
Miller has previously endorsed a theory called “remigration” that refers to the forcible removal of non–ethnically European immigrants.
