RFK Jr. likened CDC to a "Nazi death camp" and vaccinating children to "sex abuse in the Catholic church"
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. compared medical institutions like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to a “Nazi death camp” in resurfaced footage from autism conferences for parents. The roadkill collector also compared vaccinating children to “sex abuse in the Catholic church." Cool. SO excited to see what this lunatic and his chainsaw do to the Department of Health & Human Services... [RETWEET THAT!]

Trump voters feel very differently about things now that he’s won, our new poll shows
New polling by POLITICO shows that, all of a sudden, Republicans think voter fraud isn't real and the economy is great again! Also, we have always been at war with Oceania. 🙄
Take Action: Tell the Senate to confirm Biden's judges NOW!
Republicans built an ecosystem of influencers. Some Democrats want one, too
The right-wing domination of the online mediasphere during the 2024 election was overwhelming, and left-leaning influencers are starting to fight back with the creation of Chorus, a liberal influencer and creative collective spearheaded by prominent figures like Brian Tyler Cohen and Leigh "PoliticsGirl" McGowan — and Good Influence, the company that makes the newsletter you're reading right now. Pretty cool, right?
Take Action: Chip in to help get Chorus off the ground and fight the right-wing propaganda machine!
Trump picks John Phelan, a businessman with no military experience, to be secretary of the Navy
Stunningly, Donald Trump passed over far more qualified candidates like Popeye the Sailor Man, that guy who rode out Hurricane Helene in his sailboat, beloved reality TV yacht commander Captain Lee from Below Decks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield, and literally anybody else with anything barely resembling maritime experience and instead gave the Navy secretary job to some random bozo who gave him a lot of money. Yes, a private investment banker is now in charge of the world's largest and most powerful naval force. This should go...swimmingly?
"Delete CFPB": Musk calls for elimination of consumer bureau
Unsurprisingly, one of the first targets of the alt-right, billionaire bozo's Make-A-Wish "DOGE" department is the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which has recovered nearly $20 billion in money stolen, extorted, or defrauded from ordinary Americans by predatory bastards just like him. Musk appears unaware or uncaring that eliminating the entire agency would require an act of Congress — and prior GOP efforts to kill the bureau have been stymied by their own party.
Trump plots disastrous Day 1 attack on Biden legacy
350.org: A new POLITICO report shows that Donald Trump is planning to revive the destructive Keystone XL pipeline project as soon as he gets back into office — even though no companies are trying to build it anymore! This kind of short-sighted nihilism is exactly what we can expect from a Trump administration intent on extracting every last drop of profit out of the land, no matter how many people get hurt or how much permanent damage is done — which is why we need to start fighting back ASAP! Will you add your name to let him Trump know we won’t stand for the revival of the Keystone XL pipeline or the rest of his destructive, regressive fossil fuel agenda?
Trump picks Jay Bhattacharya, a critic of COVID lockdowns, to lead National Institutes of Health
Nothing inspires confidence like putting a man who advocated for a "herd immunity" solution to the COVID-19 pandemic — i.e., infect everyone and let countless people needlessly die — in charge of the nation's leading health institution responsible for responding to the next pandemic.
Democrat Derek Tran ousts GOP incumbent in California House battle
Derek Tran, a first-time Democratic candidate, has flipped a toss-up California House seat, narrowly defeating GOP Rep. Michelle Steel, who conceded on Wednesday after a protracted vote count. It's a crucial pickup for Democrats and narrows the GOP majority in the House to a razor-thin margin — which might even end up being just ONE vote, opening the door for any disgruntled Republican to completely shut down any activity in our nation's legislative branch. Considering that the current GOP majority led to one of the least productive congressional sessions in history, this does not bode well for Speaker Johnson and his duplicitous band of MAGA dolts.
Trump team eyes quick rollback of Biden student debt relief
Because sticking it to students, the downtrodden, and the economically at-risk is the American way!
Trump transition team says several Cabinet picks targeted with bomb threats and swatting
Perhaps spending YEARS normalizing and encouraging threats of political violence to advance your own selfish agenda wasn't such a good idea after all, eh, Donald?
