I knew it was coming, but I’m still pissed. Universal recommendations for kids for Covid, flu, RSV, meningitis, and hepatitis vaccines…gone. I’ve been a nurse for 19 years, a public health nurse for the last 4. This will affect both access and uptake. This will kill more kids. Heartsick.

It’s Meningitis Monday! Meningitis for all!

Do you see a pale house? And his name that sat on him was Death.

Robert F Kennedy Jr has just decided that our children should not be immunized against several diseases, among them meningitis.

Meningitis spreads FAST and kills 1 in 6.

Moulton: "When we had briefings on Venezuela, we asked, 'Are you going to invade the country?' We were told no. 'Do you plan to put troops on the ground?' We were told no. 'Do you intend regime change in VZ?' We were told no. So in a sense, we have been briefed, we've just been completely lied to"

Tonight, the President of the United States has launched an unconstitutional war of aggression, dooming another generation to spill their blood for oil, and lay waste to a sovereign nation.

I demand that Congress exercise its power, halt this conflict, and impeach this war criminal president.

No one will stop me from defending our freedoms.

Home Depot wanted holiday cheer, got a whole-ass choir calling out their partnership with ICE instead…

I don't want to hear any complaints that anybody was insufficiently reverent about the memory of Sarah Beckstrom after this human trash Trump said this about her funeral

Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

CDC Quietly Turned Off Its Vaccine Search Tool. It’s Not Clear When It’s Coming Back. “I have heard that they are planning to ‘update it’ and shudder to think what that will mean,” Demetre Daskalakis, a former member of CDC leadership, told NOTUS.

🧵 1/3 Anyone else notice that Vaccines.gov the federal vaccine locator is just… broken?

And honestly, would any of us be shocked if it never comes back, given that HHS took it over from CDC this summer?

A Babson College student wanted to surprise her family for Thanksgiving. She was deported instead. - The Boston Globe Any Lucia Lopez Belloza was at Logan to catch a flight to Texas when immigration authorities detained her as she was about to board the plane.

I feel much safer today knowing that we deported a Babson College student back to a country where she hasn't lived since childhood.

She wasn't even flying internationally. She was flying to Texas.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Rep. Stansbury: Families are about to lose their food assistance YouTube video by Rep. Melanie Stansbury

Just flew in from Albuquerque and had to come down to see the White House for myself.

As our communities are facing a crisis—Trump is CHOOSING to cut off food assistance to 40 million Americans—while building a $300 million ballroom for himself.

Cruelty is the point.

Let this sink in…

“At least one expert now predicting this could trigger greatest hunger catastrophe in the U.S. since the Great Depression.”

📌 The Dept of Agriculture posted a notice on its website saying federal food aid won’t go out on November 1.
