Even a decade ago I'd have far sooner predicted that the US would succumb to authoritarian rule than that it would become a state where vaccines were unavailable.

But if we don't throw RFK Jr. out on his ass, we're headed there fast.
RFK Jr. is overhauling the program that helps preserve Americans' access to vaccines
A Kennedy adviser said he wants to preserve the Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. The health secretary's anti-vaccine allies prefer it collapse.

The White House launched a page on its website, titled the “Hall of Shame,” devoted to naming and shaming media outlets and reporters that publish stories President Trump disagrees with.

“Misleading. Biased. Exposed,” the site reads.

Let him crash out after that but press him to stop doing this. It's fucking undignified for the office AND for journalism. Trump is a damned disgrace. I am humiliated daily to know that this beclowned madman is our president. In just the last week he's called women journalists piggy, stupid & ugly.

You and me both. And now folks are treating Bush Jr. like a nice old paintin' grandpa who everybody misses; forgetting the whole "lies to take us into an unnecessary war," literal torture at our Cuba concentration camp, letting the Ninth Ward in NOLA drown, mass surveillance and more.
It's cute, reading all these anguished cries: "when this is all over, these guys need to go to jail!" I remember saying that during Bush I crimes, and during Bush II crimes, and during Trump I crimes.

Guess how many of those guys went to jail.

Trump claims “any document” signed by Joe Biden is “hereby terminated.”

He calls out executive orders later but obviously “any document” would be much broader and include legislation.

(He can’t legally do that but, as always, we get to watch how far he can push this without repercussions)

Q: Do you plan to attend Sarah's funeral?

TRUMP: I haven't thought about it yet, but it's certainly something I can conceive of. I love West Virginia. You know, I won West Virginia by one of the biggest margins of any president anywhere.

TRUMP: If you look at Somalia, they are taking over Minnesota.

REPORTER: What do the Somalians have to do with this Afghan guy who shot the National Guard members?

TRUMP: Ah, nothing. But Somalians have caused a lot of trouble. They're ripping us off.

Trump has built the most racially and gender-exclusive administration in modern U.S. history: 84% male and 90% white. While saddening, it's NOT shocking. This is the result of an administration undermining racial equity and committed to rolling back DEI at every level.

Trumps America is pretty barbaric in my opinion. Executing fishermen like this terrorist. Torturing people in ICE detention, or sending them to barbaric places which we pay to torture. I bet those two soldiers would appreciate you shutting up. 🙏
