🧵 1/ RFK Jr as our new HHS secretary is just the start. MAHA isn't just about health but aims to destroy public welfare through disinformation entities (people/orgs).

Hence the "Quacks, Cranks, and Liars Block List"

Here’s an example of what happens when the unregulated supplement industry meets the multi-billion dollar fitness/wellness market - high levels of lead in widely-used protein powders.

You’d think 🧠🪱’s MAHA movement would want the FDA to do something about that…

A lot of people have been making claims about H5N1 being on the verge of “going pandemic.”

We don’t that, or how or if a pandemic with H5N1 would occur.

But we do know what the virus would need to do & there are ways we can stop it.

The celebration of Charlie Kirk exposes a fundamental shift that defines our era: While shame once bound society together, it has lost the ground that gave it power—and there’s no going back.

Why Shame No Longer Works in American Politics

While it once played a role in binding society, shame has lost its power—and so have the liberal tools that depend on it.

My son just had surgery, and for the first time ever, we had to depend on a GFM for his medical care.
Because Mike Johnson, Trump and maga MOC hate America and her citizens.

Trump announces he's drone killed 27 Venezuelans on boats, claiming without evidence that they were "narcoterrorists," & refusing to answer what gives him authority.

NEW: Pentagon officials are forcing staff to watch Pete Hegseth's "Warrior" speech he forced generals to listen to.

Officials are even "testing" staff to see if they watched — and are threatening consequences if they lie about watching it or if they mock it, sources tell @swin24.bsky.social and I.

The Pentagon Is Ordering Staff to Watch Hegseth’s ‘MAGA Garbage’ Speech… Or Else

Defense Department sources tell Zeteo that staff have been warned that if they don’t watch or read the speech, or if they speak negatively of it, they could face severe consequences.

A new report of crime data shows that ICE impersonation cases have reached record highs in 2025—more than the number of such cases in the last 4 Presidential admins COMBINED.

Democratic Governors need to order their State police to arrest alleged ICE fascists who conceal their identities. Period.

The more GOP officials and right-wing hacks try to spin and pivot from their Young Republican leaders praising Hitler and racism and gas chambers for their enemies, the more it puts the story in the spotlight.

My favorite Struzan story is that he was doing the poster for Indy at Disneyland, but they didn't have the rights to Ford's likeness. Fed up with working around the problem, Struzan just called Ford and was like, "hey, can I use your face for this," and Ford said, "if it's for you, absolutely."
