I'm a nobody on here. No one cares what I say or how hard I've fought. I will not be missed. There's no reason to stick around for the tsunami of vitriol headed our way. I enjoyed following you. I owe it to myself & my family to step away from social media. Peace out.

Hey Salty! Thought of you when I saw the news of that giant tuna caught near Cabo this weekend. Was that you?

Have you ever watched a baby die of pertussis? I have. Several.

This is what it looks like:
A newborn baby can’t stop coughing. They can’t catch their breath and they can’t eat. They get dehydrated and stop peeing. They sometimes have pauses in their breathing. Parents are terrified so they come to the ER.

In the ER, labs show they have a dangerously high white blood cell count. Their blood has become thick from the white blood cells and doesn’t travel through organs like it should. Less oxygen gets delivered to vital organs. They start to seize. Imaging reveals they had a stroke. They can’t pump blood to their lungs and body.

A breathing tube gets placed in their trachea. They get put on a ventilator. A plastic catheter is placed in their veins and arteries to give them medicine and measure blood pressure.

If they are lucky, they can make it to a #PedsICU that provides #ECMO, or full heart lung bypass. They are attached to machines that take over all their body functions.

But it’s too late. Their hands and feet turn black because they can’t perfuse their bodies. Their faces turn grey/green. They won’t stop seizing from the brain injury.

They are attached to too many machines to hold while alive and parents lay their bodies on top of them and cry until they fall asleep then cry again.

There is nothing to do but stop the machines. Antibiotics to treat pertussis were given but were no match for the infections effects on a newborn baby.

Parents finally hold their baby after the machines have turned off and their baby is cold and lifeless.

Is this what you want? This is what RFK Jr will bring to American families.

@buitengebieden You know, I do the same thing. I mean, not curled up under a table, but sit *at* a covered table in the rain.

@DougWahl1 No, I don't. I believe we're fucked and there's nothing we can do about it. I believe the next four years will be living hell for women, POC, LGBTQ, and non-evangelical Christians.
