Also stupid is that we’ve cut research on cancer, infectious disease, Parkinson’s, etc. we are unprepared for the next infectious disease outbreak - which WILL occur.

So far the war on Iran has cost $9.4 billion.

That's $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

Thousands of lives lost.

People don't want this. They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

It's not at all suspicious that one of the guards at the prison where Epstein was held googled "how to fake a suicide" during the weeks leading up to Epstein's death.

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

The difference between the spike in global oil prices now versus 2022 is that this time the US president single-handedly caused it to happen overnight with a policy while accepting no responsibility, while the US president in 2022 was blamed for it even though he didn’t cause it.

Hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, and discrimination are viruses, magnified by suffering, carried in buckets, spilled onto the world.

We cannot eliminate them by actions that magnify hatred, ignorance, fear, greed, discrimination and suffering - only by actions that relieve them.

DOJ confirmed that 47,635 Epstein files have been removed.

That’s ANOTHER 47,635 reasons why we need ACCOUNTABILITY!

Appalling to hear D Senators caving due to RFKs stance on nutrition. Come on people! He is anti science, he lies like Pinocchio, he used Cocaine, he sexually assaulted his nanny! His anti vaccine stance is deadly. RFK Jr is not fit to be HHS Secretary ‼️

The suggestions that we can work with him or must do so are a fundamental misunderstanding of who he is, what the GOP cares about and is being pushed by a few liberal commentators, toyed with by some Democratic politicians. 20/

RFK Jr. is our Manto Tshabalala-Msimang (and you could say worse than she was, as RFK Jr. pushes a panoply of dangerous views beyond HIV). His party controls all three branches of government, and is popular with a large swath of the country. 19/

And by the way, Jay Bhattacharya, Trump's NIH director nominee has likened himself to AIDS denialist Peter Duesberg, so this rot extends beyond RFK Jr. himself. 18/

First, while you may know of RFK Jr. anti-vax views (which have been deadly in their own right--read about the measles outbreak in Samoa and his role there), he's an AIDS denialist as well. He has praised the same AIDS denialists that swayed Mbeki, suggests HIV doesn't cause AIDS, etc. 17/

What does this have to do with Trump and RFK Jr? 16/

Not through a policy of appeasement but through working with communities across the country, rallying allies in the professions, building international solidarity. 15/
