RFK Jr. is about to testify before the Senate again, after what could arguably be called the worst month in the history of the US Health and Human Services Department. Here's a non-exhaustive timeline of Kennedy's war on vaccines:

To prevent my cancer from returning, I was advised to eat more beans. No one ever mentioned booze. "One of the reasons that doctors don't like to talk about it is that doctors like to drink."

LA City Attorney: Businesses are empty and shuttered. The city’s law enforcement personnel have received countless 911 calls about what, for all intents and purposes, looks like a kidnapping. That’s what it looks like — individuals who will not identify themselves.

House Dems blast Labor Department for abandoning disabled workers
Rand Paul: "The reason we have trials & we don't automatically assume guilt is what if we make a mistake and they happen to be people fleeing the Venezuelan dictator? ... off our coast it isn't our policy just to blow people up ... even the worst people in our country, they still get a trial."
Great news for everyone who wants to force the Justice Department to release the Epstein files!
Yes, Samuel… Those motherfucking wind farms! (Said with pride and admiration)
King Donald says the Epstein scandal is a “Democrat Hoax.” I mean, just look at all these radical liberals trying to push their Epstein Epstein Epstein propaganda… 🙄
Ossoff: Absolutely RFK JR should resign. He should have never been confirmed to begin with. He is utterly unqualified. This is someone who has embraced every piece of quackery and pseudoscience that he’s come across.

The guy that ordered 8 fighter jets to perform a low altitude fly-over in an effort to drown out Epstein survivors is the same guy who wants you to believe he's innocent.
As a sexual abuse survivor, I need to talk about my anger. I'm so angry about the government not stopping Epstein when they had the opportunity, causing hundreds more girls to fall prey to him because of inaction. I'm enraged about the cover up. And I'm furious about lack of care for young girls.
RFK Jr. will face "hard questions" over CDC shakeup, according to Thune. The Senate majority leader expressed frustration over the firings of recently confirmed officials.
Ossoff: "It's been extraordinary to see the Speaker of the House reduced to lying in order to cover up sex crimes"
In a massive victory for Harvard University, a federal judge ruled Wednesday that the Trump administration violated Harvard’s First Amendment rights and federal law when it froze nearly $2 billion in federal grants because of the Ivy League school's handling of antisemitism on campus.
The president is using the military to dismantle cities that didn't vote for him The president is using the military to distract from women speaking out against his and Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuses. We are not living in ordinary times. Extraordinary responses are called for.

AOC: Millionaires are very overrepresented in congress… If we want a congress that reflects the actual country we seek to represent and fight for, we need to have working class people who work here
Such an odd thing to read in the newspaper www.nytimes.com/2025/09/03/u...
About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”
Ossoff on RFK Jr: "Absolutely he should resign. And he never should've been confirmed to begin with... in any normal Senate, he never would've gotten so much as a hearing. This is someone who throughout his public life has embraced just about every piece of quackery & pseudoscience he's come across"
When you stand up and fight; sometimes you lose and sometimes you win. But do you know what happens if you don't fight at all? Nothing.
These are a gem. My old town had a tool library, my new town has a sewing library. Gifts. 🎁
It's Time to Release the Epstein Files. People who fight this hard to hide something have something to hide. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

After a decade of efforts and tens of millions of dollars invested, the Corpus Christi City Council moved to cancel a contract for a seawater desalination plant in a 1 a.m. vote Wednesday.
To the brave women who spoke today about the horrors of Epstein/Maxwell, I say this: For any legal concerns about speaking the names of people who sexually abused you and others, have no fear of legal expenses; I'm sure plenty of angry Americans will help fund you. Count me in. Get it done.
Next they'll be rewriting textbooks to say Japanese American internment camps were delightful summer resorts.
Holy shit‼️ Epstein’s survivors are compiling their own list, because they know exactly who the predators are.
Guess which network is ignoring the survivors? Fox isn’t news.
"For so many years, it felt like Epstein's criminal behavior was an open secret." “We’re not going away. We’re not staying quiet. We’re not going to give up.” Annie Farmer (Epstein survivor)
More of this.
REP. @yassaminansari.bsky.social on the bipartisan demand for the Epstein files: “This is the most corrupt administration in 🇺🇸 history, and this story shows it more than anything.”
A victim of convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has revealed how a group of survivors is compiling a client list of their own.
Am I wrong?

Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez: "The reason the “90-year-old hippie” women are the ones out in the street with signs is that they remember what it was like to live in the kind of world MAGA is dragging us back into. They fought like hell once before to get us out belib.org/9lUNGgA
"Our democracy is only as strong as the people willing to defend it. State and local officials are on the frontlines of this work, and they must stay firm in the tough battles ahead — for the systems they manage and the voters they serve. The stakes couldn’t be higher." -- Pamela Smith
Texas loaded busses with desperate migrants and dropped them off in Chicago like trash in the middle of winter. We welcomed them into our communities. Now Texas is sending its National Guard to terrorize them on our streets. In our neighborhoods. What the fuck.
Watching people intentionally act stupid while spreading nonsense about wind and solar energy is enraging. They are loathsome creatures denying the climate crisis that is unfolding, RIGHT NOW. Malicious intent to mislead people seems like it should be a crime.
You'd like to hope the Energy Secretary would know that his own Department has an entire web page devoted to explaining how batteries work "Batteries and similar devices accept, store, and release electricity on demand"
Another protest in Washington, D.C.!!! Women dressed in red lined the street for almost a block!! What a strong statement by women who took time off to protest on a Tuesday!! Thank you so much!! 💗
Putin slammed mail in voting. Looks like Trump is following his orders to slam it too. BS accusations of fraud backed up with zero evidence is Trumps brand. Seems his ridiculous lying to American voters about the safety of mail-in voting is malicious and intended to suppress voter turnout.
Trump on moving Space Command to Alabama from Colorado: They went to all mail-in voting. So they have automatically crooked elections. When a state is for mail-in voting, that means they want dishonest elections. That played a big factor also
@advocacywarrior.bsky.social Welcome to the conversation. Toronto Star knows.
Thank you on this labor day!!
Pritzker: "He has no idea what's he's talking about. There is no emergency that warrants deployment of troops. He is insulting the people of Chicago by calling our home a hellhole, and anyone that takes his word at face value is insulting Chicagoans too."
Massie is an a MISSION!! Epstein WE WANT THE FACTS!!
Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"
"The AIDS epidemic was a society-altering catastrophe, one that inspired legions of future doctors—gay and straight alike—to pursue careers in infectious disease. Today they make up a disproportionate share of the specialty’s senior ranks."
Remember, when a cult leader dies, the cult doesn't disappear. It fragments. The high-ranking members under the leader will have their own supporters, but none have the majority, and without majority rule, the smaller factions can not retain control. Even a child of the og leader is never the same.
Pritzker: "It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try to disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear -- the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here."
Corporate media has disgracefully failed to provide actual journalism and instead features clickbait headlines and screaming, overtly partisan overpaid BS panels to deliver the days news. Insulting and shameful!
👇🏼👍
Release the Epstein files.
Republicans gleefully embrace sexually abusing children for the pleasure of sick white fucks!
I don't care if Dump announces that he died and was replaced by a body double or abducted by aliens. I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHAT IS IN THE EPSTEIN FILES!!!
Chicago strong! Resist! This is what democracy looks like.
"That is why I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it." Yes, there is a difference.
Prophetic words!
“Get it all on record now. Get the films. Get the witnesses. Because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.” Dwight D. Eisenhower
It's NOT about high crime, if it was, he'd be sending troops to Tennessee and Louisiana just to name a few RED STATES with HIGH CRIME
Wow!🤩
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"

I used to read books like Lord of the Rings or watch movies like Star Wars and think the villains were unbelievable. And of course, now watching the tech oligarchs (who could not spend all their money if they tried) destroy civilization for power, I’m like, guess I was wrong. People are that awful.
I love this guy
BREAKING: The Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges. This is a blatant expansion of military power into a civilian judicial process, a dangerous erosion of the separation between the two. Every day, we inch closer to fascism.
