The CDC just re-opened a previously shelved study that would withhold the hepatitis B vaccine from children in Guinea-Bissau, despite decades of evidence showing it is safe and effective. This is a violation of human rights, using “science” to harm some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

On October 7, 2016, in the run-up to the 2016 election, the Washington Post broke the story of the so-called Access Hollywood tape, a video from 2005 in which Donald Trump told television host Billy Bush about his approach to women.

Love this. I wish education was widely taught. I am on my porch listening to my neighbors talk about their protestant and evangelical religious ideas. They have very little historical knowledge and have parroted anti-trans views in the past. Yikes 😳 I expected better in California.

Hope so! 🤞It’s time to vote for democrats and progressives. The republicans/conservatives have destroyed the integrity of the US, have revived the know-nothing party, and degraded every single person in the US with their racist and exclusionary policies.

💔 horrific story. One of my cousins moved to Idaho from Oregon because they thought Oregon was too liberal. 🙄Idaho is unfortunately very conservative & regressive. I lived in No. Utah for 10 years & the Idahoans I knew were a sad mix of desperate & brainwashed.

amjro.bsky.social @amjro.bsky.social · 07/10/2026
Exactly. I found this to be true in the high demand conservative religion where I grew up. Everything I did was critiqued & scrutinized but perfection was impossible for me. The religious conservatives searched for reasons to exclude & denigrate. I can’t imagine it’s different in republican circles.

I'm not sure if @oversightdemocrats.bsky.social have issued a statement on this yet, but they should publicly announce that if Russ Vought tries to fuck with the election in any way they will fire him out of a cannon when they take power.

The GOP cut funding to the IRS because *audits work* and they fundamentally don't believe rich people should have to play by the rules.
Line chart titled "Revenue per audit," subtitled "In-person audits, 2010-2014." It plots average revenue and average cost per audit by taxpayer income percentile, poorer to richer, from the 0–5th percentile to the top 0.1%. Source: Boning et al. 2023, "A Welfare Analysis of Tax Audits Across the Income Distribution."

Across the bottom half of the income distribution, revenue and cost track closely, both around $3,000–$6,000 per audit. Above the median, revenue pulls ahead of cost: about $10,000 vs. $5,000 near the 90th percentile, and about $17,000 vs. $8,000 at the 95th–99th. At the top, revenue jumps to about $31,000 for the 99–99.9th percentile and about $90,000 for the top 0.1%.

Since Trump took office, the top 0.1% has gained more than 8,000 times as much wealth as the bottom HALF. And guess what Republicans’ billionaire tax giveaways are going to keep doing to this.

The Right wasn't going to take this sitting down though Backed by the military, right-wing elites formed the paramilitary Villages Scouts and Red Gaurs, and cultivated an atmosphere of right-wing intimidation Even before the massacre, several farmer leaders were assassinated in northern Thailand

Saying he'd be cool with Iran nuking my home city is pretty bad but not quite as bad as when Hillary said some trump supporters were deplorable so I can see why the media turned the latter into a major scandal and not the former
