🎯 The major point is that the anti-vaccine misinformation machine is worth millions. Vaccines worked so well that Polio & small pox are dim & distant memories, therefore less compelling. I did not see what it was like to live with those outbreaks or watch people suffer from complications. 🧪

FBI shows up to interrogate a U.S. citizen at his house-for writing an anti-ICE social media post. "This is about comments that you posted online," said agent.

“…exhorting derelicts, drunks and Skid Row bums.”
“Billy Graham Began Here” historical marker in Tampa, Florida. It reads:

From the sidewalk in this Franklin St. neighborhood, the Rev. Dr. Billy Graham forty years ago launched his worldwide Christian evangelistic crusade, exhorting derelicts, drunks and "Skid Row" bums. Since then he has preached to more people than any other person, reaching millions. Dr. Graham attended Florida Bible Institute at Temple Terrace, graduating in 1940. While a student here, Dr. Graham heard the "call", and prayed, "O God, if you want me to preach, I will do it."
 
Erected 1979 by Tampa Historical Society in cooperation with the Tampa Ministers' Association during the Billy Graham Crusade in Tampa.
