Kevin Kruse blocked me for saying people should blame Republicans in Congress.

What's unfortunate is that he knows better, he knows GOP has the majority!

But the engagement on "yell at Dems" is higher than on reminding ppl that they need to hold the GOP to account for their actions.

100% wear a helmet.

The odds are obvious as to what happens when one doesn't, to the degree that there's a morbid sort of "medical tourism" that's understood in travelling to particular US states as a result
This is why a family friend went to Arizona; they lived in Seattle, needed a lung transplant & were told to they would have far better odds & a faster timeline there as there’s no helmet law. Gruesome.

And…yep. They got a lung transplant there 😶

Yep. And Lizza didn't bother to bring any of this up during RFK Jr's confirmation hearing either.

Per Lizza's own admissions here, BOTH Nuzzi & Lizza bear responsibility for RFK's role in the administration destroying public health and spreading conspiracy theories that are killing people!

Too cool and edgy to request the book at the library. He might see his mom there.

Lauretta Jean's is the best! I especially love the quiche.

I drove by them on Monday morning 10 minutes after they opened and the line was down the block—I know they sold out of Tday pies, so it's possible ppl were trying to buy them out of the case that soon.

The CDC has not addressed this and is largely pretending it isn’t happening. Meanwhile they’re taking steps to actively reduce vaccination rates.
Pertussis cases in Texas are 10x higher than all of 2023, and 2x as high as last year — 4x for the same period. The official count is higher by a 1k than it has been in more than a decade. Last time it was over 2k was 2014 with 2,576. It’s past 3,500 for 2025.

Pertussis outbreaks have been predictably happening everywhere there are low vaccination rates, and infant deaths have happened in multiple states. In many places they’re the highest in a decade or more.
This may not sound like a lot compared to Texas but WV is roughly 5-6% the size of TX. This is a big deal.

There’s no nice way to say this: promoting anti-vax bullshit while kids are dying of vaccine preventable illnesses is tantamount to murder, and should be treated as such in the media and the courts.

Yep. We have millions of ppl that believe it's just that "shitlibs don't want to" impeach him

(math?🙄)

They tell their followers that it's lack of willpower & FIGHT that Dems aren't doing more

& then, rather than FLIPPING seats, they work to oust currently blue seats🙃

Burning resources w no GAIN

To them,"white man" is neutral. It is the baseline. Normal.

Whomever is NOT that is wrong, or bad, or unappealing—for they're not their "neutral, normal."

"White male" is the most histrionic, self-regarding identity in politics, forcing THAT identity's demands & grievances on to everyone else

That she was hired in the first place, after her egregious breach of journalistic ethics became known, is the real issue!

Vanity Fair should be looking into the guy that hired her 🙄
