#RFKJr gives the game away: He's going to "find" that #vaccines cause #autism by lying about the research. This rather complex but important article unpacks his latest round of lies. https://theunbiasedscipod.substack.com/p/dont-be-foiled-by-rfk-jrs-rebuttal

Former US Surgeon General on the #CDC shootings: "This tragedy is not an isolated event. It is a dire reflection of ever-escalating threats public health workers face in a climate increasingly shaped by misinformation, politicization, and inflammatory rhetoric. Worse still, it took more than 18 hours for Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to issue a public statement condemning the violent act." https://www.statnews.com/2025/08/09/cdc-shooting-anti-vaccine-violence-rhetoric-public-health-workers/

#Trump continues thrashing the #Constitution. Didn't the U.S. once pretend to care about stuff like this? https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-census-plan

β€œWe have electricity prices going up, we have #electricity demand going up and we have the federal government preventing developers and individuals from accessing the lowest-cost #energy available [from renewable sources] and wanting to sort of turn back the clock to where we were all dependent on coal and oil and gas. That just makes no sense unless your ultimate goal is to support the oil and gas industry and to reduce competition with those industries.”
