Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?
Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.
And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.
Reading American history will break your heart a thousand times but it will also fill you with such admiration and awe for all the people who were excluded from the protection of Americaβs founding principles and fought to promote, protect and expand them anyways

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.
He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. Heβs referenced 38,000 times.

Just completely gob-smacked to hear the Minneapolis Emerg Response Director compare what is happening now to some of the worst global conflicts zones she has worked in- AND THIS IS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. π
Watching live in Minneapolis- tear gas and agents deploy into the cloud with guys drawn.
And what are they learning? Experts on the formation of internal security services in authoritarian regimes point to a sense of impunity as a warning sign. Regime officials abuse their power when they know they will be protected, and even praised, for doing so. Over the course of weeks and months, we have seen images of DHS officials abusing American citizens and immigrants alike, including killing them. What we do not hear is regime officials calling for credible investigations into such abuses, or even expressing any concerns. Renee Goodβs killer was announced innocent, and both Good and her wife was instead the subject of an investigation, a perversion of justice so obvious that an FBI agent and half-dozen career Department of Justice prosecutors assigned to Minnesota resigned.
What we are watching is a paramilitary force learning that they can kill with impunity, that the regime will smear the victim and defend them. Unless politicians and the legal system exerts accountability, it will not stop. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/past-the-b...
Wtaf- another ICE shooting in Minneapolis, minutes ago. Zero training of βofficersβ seems evident when you seen their uncontrolled response to shot fired by (likely) an officer, as detained person had had 4-5 people pressing him into the ground and hitting him in the face?! THIS MUST STOP π₯
