A lie—
told again & again—
doesn’t grow true.
It only grows louder.

AI—
threatens jobs with healthcare—
the very care
you just cancelled.

Children—
raised by adults
who’ve been taught not to think—
are not the future,
but the past.

You will understand these things.
But by then—
too late.

“…if you’re okay with masked agents hauling people off the streets with no names, no faces, and no accountability—you’ve crossed a line. That’s not conservatism. That’s authoritarianism.”
If you need a mask to enforce the law, you don’t deserve a badge.
Federal agents are snatching people off the streets—faces covered, names hidden.
This isn’t safety. It’s secrecy.
It’s not America.

A beautiful piece written by a former classmate and native Oklahoman on preserving NIH funding: “I made a promise to never forget the people I love whose minds have been decayed by this disease.”

What happens when you *read* the studies behind the bold claims? I walk you through an HHS report & three of its citations in ~ 5 minutes. I hope you think it’s worth the dive into HHS's FAQ on new vaccine recommendations distributed to members of Congress.

This feels like a "spot the logical fallacy" quiz. Low uptake--one of the major justifications given for this change--is not and should not be a criteria for vaccine approvals.

If you think funding has simply shifted from acute, infectious disease research studies to chronic disease research, think again. Funding has simply disappeared for nearly all the research into all the cures for all the diseases.
Funding for the University of Washington’s Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center’s expires at month’s end, amid an unprecedented stall in federal research funding.

Patient care, long-term studies and 4,000 brains donated for research hang in the balance.

Fraud, waste, and abuse at the NIH? Not in my experience.
Every organization can improve, but calling federal agencies corrupt without evidence? Not cool and definitely not evidence-based.
