South Carolina is making national news for all the wrong reasons. This time it’s a measles outbreak.

Prasad, Makary and others who claim that COVID19 vaccines killed 10 children are not telling the truth. According to @jeremyfaust.bsky.social, the committee that worked on this question reported that there were ZERO deaths that they were certain were caused by the vaccines. Well worth reading.

Honestly hope it ends his career, and I’ve always like Liam Neeson. But children are dying and becoming disabled. Public health is gone. The healthcare system is on its knees. It’s unconscionable to glorify RFK Jr or peddle anti vaccine rhetoric.

“The longer they hold up the release of the Epstein Files, the more I think Trump may not be a pedophile,” said no one ever.

Twenty million Americans have a completely new chronic illness from a pandemic our government said was over in mid 2022, before the two highest waves even happened. And now they are ending the subsidies that allowed millions to afford healthcare. The rage I feel could birth a new galaxy.

Bring back cancel culture. I liked Liam Neeson but I am done with super rich public figures promoting anti-vaxx bullshit that will have a impact on the lives of so many.

Elon Musk just posted “no more white guilt”. The man is personally responsible for killing 600,000 people by cutting USAID. He bought an election & helped usher in fascism. He’s not capable of feeling guilt, white or otherwise.

Please stay home if you’re feeling sick. If you absolutely can’t stay home, wear a mask. There are people who can’t afford to get sick. People without paid time off, people who are disabled or immune compromised, people who are caregivers. Help break chains of transmission

It should be a crime for government officials to lie to the American public about something as critical as vaccine safety. The disinformation coming from this administration is killing people.

Covid vaccines released last fall sharply decreased the risk of ER and urgent care visits in children, according to new data released by the CDC — providing a striking counterpoint to Trump administration rhetoric about the shots Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/11/h...

Everyone is talking about how bad the flu is. Media & healthcare facilities are pleading with people to get their flu shot. To stay home when sick. To wash their hands. Very few are recommending masks. When we had mask mandates we eliminated an entire flu strain. Mask up!

Another one bites the dust. I heard Pierre Poilievre on TV yesterday ranting about the carbon tax. It was the same smarmy voice repeating the same dumbed down slogans. Meanwhile Canada is facing the threat of the Trump doctrine. No wonder this idiot is losing ground www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...

At a minimum, Prasad and Makary should lose their licenses for blatantly lying to the public about kids dying from the COVID19 vaccine, when the actual investigation found that zero deaths were certain to have been caused by vaccination. Despicable, egregious, murderous behavior. Link below.

The AV Club, Yahoo News (by extension), The Daily Beast, and Rolling Stone have all picked up our story about Liam Neeson narrating a new anti-vax documentary. Read our original report here—and consider subscribing to Important Context or donating to AJI to help us keep going!

People need to boycott the US right now. Don’t wait for these demands to go into place. Don’t go for the World Cup. Don’t go for the Olympics. Don’t go to Disney or Vegas or Broadway. It’s not safe, and your tourist dollars shouldn’t support fascism. Vote with your dollar.

Supreme Court of Canada to donate robes to mall Santas in need

ICYMI: Last night @jeremyfaust.bsky.social revealed that Drs. Makary and Prasad of the FDA have lied to all of us with their claims that COVID19 vaccines “killed 10 children”. The scientists that did the work found that there were ZERO deaths that they could be certain were caused by the vaccines.

This is one of the best synopses of Symptoms Syndrome I've ever read 😭

The number of people living with long Covid in the U.S. is greater than the entire population of Canada

Not sure those unfamiliar with the geography of Eastern Ontario appreciate how absurd it is Via forced passengers to sleep overnight at the station in Brockville Brockville is only an hour and a half drive from Ottawa. Via couldn’t get buses to shuttle them back? How is there no contingency plan?

From the guy who brought you: “I went out one night hoping to kill a random Black man”

Scientists at Canadian institutions have long punched well above our weight despite low and stagnant funding. Spending a billion dollars on external recruitment while science here is starving is exactly what Harper got wrong about supporting research excellence in Canada.

If they’re willing to do this then I’d bet money they’re willing to encourage/support Alberta separatism.

The Senate rejected two bills to try and extend ACA subsidies. The Dems caved for nothing. They were never going to negotiate. They never had a healthcare plan. Their “plan” is to let millions lose their insurance. It’s eugenics.

how long before he complains "people are mean and wont engage in serious debate on The Echo Chamber site"

What Steve said. There has never been a study in which high-quality, well-fitting masks were actually WORN that did not show a significant impact on disease transmission. Many mask studies failed to take account of post-allocation confounders (non-adherence + non-mask people choosing to mask).

The Federal govt sends transfers to the Provinces for Public Healthcare and Public Education, but the Premiers are dispersing it to Private facilities lately and this is a huge problem. The Premiers do not spend the taxpayers money wisely. #Alberta www.ctvnews.ca/calgary/arti...

This is a regular reminder that there are still thousands of legitimate scientists at HHS who are basically in a hostage situation under RFK Jr. Much like a virus hijacks the machinery of a cell, he has hijacked the machinery of public health.

I wonder if the people who pose with guns in these otherwise happy pics realize… how fucking psychotic it looks

So many past artists who created the iconic Disney characters had NO idea the work they created would be regurgitated through Open AI for free These people were not paid for the extraction of their labor. We need California law to catch up and @governor.ca.gov to stop this AI deal NOW 🛑

Vaccines cause adults

When ACA subsidies expire, it’ll be the disabled & chronically ill who suffer the most. They have the highest healthcare costs and are living in extreme poverty. They can’t afford the premium hikes. This is a eugenicist agenda, and every Dem who voted for it knows it

Victim blaming helps the privileged keep their power. Got raped? You were asking for it. Disabled? You didn’t take care of yourself. Getting deported? Should have followed the process. Don’t make enough money? Should have made better choices. Stop blaming the oppressed.

I was honoured and humbled to be invested into the Order of Canada by Her Excellency, Governor-General Mary Simon in the company of so many outstanding people. www.gg.ca/en/citations via @theglobeandmail.com #journalism

The Pentagon failed 7 audits in a row and is being rewarded with $900 billion dollars. That’s tax payer money. Remember this the next time they say there’s too much “waste fraud and abuse” in SNAP and Medicaid. If there’s $900 billion for war, we can afford to feed people & provide healthcare.

MAGA thought they could break us. Not a chance. The boycott is stronger than ever. Canadians are showing an unprecedented level of determination and pride. Right down to our crazy local expressions and idioms. www.youtube.com/watch?v=a32F...

The White House posted a video of Santa with a “naughty list” that includes a number of journalists. He also has many of their pictures. This is what the Nazis did. They kept a list a “problem” journalists. They ousted them in favour of loyalists. Many of those journalists were killed.

Trump threatened to withhold federal funding to the entire state of Indiana unless they gerrymandered to ensure he wins? Are we really just pretending this is ok and not blatant corruption and election fraud? No one in Indiana should vote Republican after this. No one.

A country that can give 900 billion to the military can afford to provide its citizens food, shelter and healthcare. There’s always money for war. There’s never money for social supports.

Local man would be angrier about Liberal’s undemocratic floor-crossing scheme if it wasn’t so funny to imagine Poilievre’s face

This was an unexpected surprise. I wrote a thread about what was happening with redistricting in Indiana. It’s been a wild ride. The state senate was under immense pressure from Trump to vote for a new map that would make Indiana 9-0 Republican districts. They voted against it.

www.news-medical.net/news/2025121... Anyone recall how many years ago I said C19 appeared to be reactivating TB? They’ve picked up on the concept.

I'm always amused when someone watches my Danielle Smith or Karoline Leavitt videos and accuses me of stealing [comedian I've never heard of]'s ideas. Like...do you...think they're the only comedian who thought to impersonate these well-known people? Surely you cannot think that? Surely you can't?!

Sen Magaziner to Noem: “A purple heart recipient A military spouse A father of 3 marines Children with cancer Mothers with babies in the NICU US citizens You don’t seem to know how to tell the difference between the good guys & the bad guys” This is what happens when you’re filling quotas

Pierre Poilievre right now:

Republicans have voted 13 times against extending the Affordable Care Act subsidies. They’ve said 13 times that the lives of low income Americans don’t matter. That the lives of disabled or chronically ill Americans don’t matter. That healthcare is not a right in America.

Saddest thing is that Neeson’s late wife Natasha Richardson was a AIDS advocate and AmFAR spokesperson and now he’s palling around w anti-vaxxers and AIDS denialists.

After the 2023 comms debacle I called on the Liberals to take VIA fixes seriously. The Liberals are still in power and VIA is still the same and I have a very hard time convincing my mom to take the train up from Windsor to see her grand kid.

Covid boosted 🥳

The measles outbreak in South Carolina is “accelerating” with no end in sight. A once eradicated disease now surging. Preventable illness, disability and death. This is RFK Jr’s legacy. Children paying the ultimate price. Get your vaccines.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith confirmed today that her #UCP government is keen to help provide provincial post-secondary accreditation for the Peterson Academy, the online school of controversial psychologist and bestselling author Jordan Peterson. @charlesrusnell.bsky.social reports. #abpoli

Lol. This is exactly how we've ended up with two conservative parties and how we'll end up with a Conservative government soon. Partisan politics melts partisan brains.

Every time I see an interview clip from a US House Committee hearing it's like Representative: Did you build six orphan mills last year Republican Politician: I did not how dare you Representative: Behold this 15-part David Attenborough documentary of the six orphan mills you built last year

RFK Jr: We shall rebuild Trust in public health. Chorus: How, how will you do that sir? RFK Jr: We shall lie to the people of the United States about vaccines Chorus: Oooh, so clever sir, but won’t you get caught? RFK Jr: If we are caught, we will make up the data. Chorus: What the fuck man?

Family member told me they would only stop drinking alcohol if I stop masking and "living in fear." Im tired of being blamed for someone else's substance use issues

This is extremely bad.

All hail Queen Elizabeth May

I'm really glad Canadians aren't subject to Trump's proposed five-year social media rule because I just don't have it in me to explain Doug Ford to an already-angry Customs agent

“Danielle Smith is a traitor and a majority of Canadians agree. She has on several occasions met with individuals who want to annex Canada. Smith also committed election interference by asking Trump to interfere in our election to benefit Pierre Poilievre.”

The Conservative MP from Markham Unionville has crossed the floor to the Liberals Carney is one seat off from a majority 😳

some studios are pro-junk and AI-slop now i guess not surprised. but at the end of the day, the only thing that will end this is you and your dollar. if you want human-made art and animation, it’s up to you, the customer, to prove it. rip Hollywood. the next iteration of you will make more sense.

Local woman wakes up, is named person of the year for telling people to not rely on generative AI for everything and use critical thinking skills, makes oatmeal.

I’m still kinda miffed that The Guardian basically rewrote our story without crediting us and is now getting cited like they broke any part of it.

What were Ford’s thoughts about work from home etc?

The FDA under charlatans Prasad, Makary, and Hoeg wants to put a black box warning on COVID19 vaccines in order to please their anti-vax audience. There is no reason to assume that RFK Jr. will not force COVID19 vaccines off the market in the US. And then he will just keep going down the list.

I have a choice of staying on my plan for $400 more a month , dropping to a plan that doesn’t cover any out of network providers (which includes all of my long covid doctors), and dropping to an HMO where I’d lose all my specialists. Doing this during a pandemic is truly evil on a deep level.

“Covid vaccines administered last fall sharply decreased the risk of emergency department and urgent care visits in children… [cutting] the risk of needing medical care in the first six months after vaccination by 76 percent in children under 4, and 56 percent in children 5 to 17.”

Has anyone noticed clothing companies are going back to SUPER thin models? Quince ads are bothering me. We are not doing this again. Not just for representation. Most people shop online now, and I’m not buying jeans for my size 10 body having only seen them on a 00.
