Hey y’all. My sister & I are facing an urgent housing crisis. Because of a major snowstorm, we haven’t been able to work, & now we can’t cover the full cost of our temporary housing for tomorrow. We’re doing everything we can to stay safe, warm, & stable, but we need help to get through this moment.

without birthright citizenship in the united states, you don't have a democracy and you don't have rule of law.
revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.

I realize the NYT is pro-plague, pro-fascism, pro-neo-Nazi and pro-TERF and pro-genocide, but writing about Prasad and refusing to mention his minimizing, anti-mask, anti-vax crusade for the past several years is journalistic malpractice.
This is not just some genteel scientific disagreement.

NEW: The F.D.A. announced in an internal memo that 10 children died "because of" the Covid shot. Other experts want to see proof.
“This is a profound revelation,” Dr. Prasad's memo said. “For the first time, the U.S. F.D.A. will acknowledge that Covid-19 vaccines have killed American children.”
