Bobby Witt Jr. just put up back-to-back seasons of 10.5 and 8 fWAR at ages 24 and 25, is the best infielder we’ve seen since Arod, and has a great chance to go down as a Top 5 SS of all-time
Don’t overlook how incredible he is just because he’s “only” the 3rd best player in MLB
just as a general rule if there are a bunch of clergy peacefully protesting in the cold and you’re the one dragging them away in cuffs, there’s a 99.9% chance you’re on the wrong side of history
They zip tied naked children and arrested an entire building of US citizens so they could post this video to impress unfuckable 65 year old MAGA pigs with heart disease.
RFK Jr. just cut $500 million in federal funding for mRNA vaccine development.
Not because the vaccines failed.
Not because they’re unsafe.
But because of ideology.
Twenty-two projects - gone overnight. These weren’t fringe efforts. They included next-gen vaccines for COVID-19, influenza, RSV, and even H5N1 bird flu.
Let’s be clear: mRNA vaccines saved millions of lives during the COVID pandemic.
They don’t prevent every infection, but they do prevent severe illness and death. That’s the gold standard in real-world vaccine effectiveness.
RFK Jr. says he wants “safer” alternatives. But the scientific consensus is crystal clear: mRNA vaccines are among the safest and most effective tools in modern medicine.
Pulling support for them isn’t a safety move - it’s an anti-vaccine statement dressed in bureaucratic language.
This decision wasn’t grounded in science. It was driven by talking points from online influencers and anti-vax communities - not by the CDC, WHO, or FDA.
We’re watching political ideology override evidence-based health policy.
And the timing couldn’t be worse.
Bird flu is circulating. Pandemic risks are real. And mRNA is still our fastest route to a scalable countermeasure.
Cutting this platform means we’ll be slower, less prepared, and more vulnerable next time.
Public health leaders are sounding the alarm:
“A strategic misstep.” – Rick Bright, former BARDA director.
“A disaster for preparedness.” – Paul Offit.
“mRNA has saved lives.” – every infectious disease expert not broadcasting on Facebook Live.
This is what it looks like when science gets sidelined.
We don’t just lose funding.
We lose time.
We lose lives.
We lose the tools that protect us.
RFK Jr. isn’t making America safer. He’s dismantling the infrastructure we’ll need for the next crisis - in the name of belief over biology.
It’s not principled. It’s reckless.
@kucr8ton we can only hope KJ heals soon. Cause this team is absolutely fucked without him defensively. But all the faceless losers like @PhoggyThoughts and @RockChalkBlog are going to keep lookin at box scores and pretend like they know who impacts the game w/o understanding basketball
@tgoff11@GVBHawk@BHanni You got this @GVBHawk. 2 time Stage IV colon cancer survivor/Jayhawk here and know what you’re going through! Keep fighting and take it one day at a time my man. Here for you if you ever have questions!
@RockChalkBlog Oh no the RockChalkBlog guys are mad that the HOF coach doesn’t agree with who I think should start! The Big 12 FG% leading athlete isn’t getting enough rebounds! The box score is what I think dictates how a game goes!
@trianbitus@RockChalkBlog (Elon’s twitter sucks) The greatest college coach in the world recognizes that he has the worlds greatest chess piece and RockChalkBlog thinks different.
@trianbitus@RockChalkBlog This random ass faceless account has been calling for KJ to be benched for YEARS. The guy was on the floor when KU won the Natty as a true freshman and yet he/she/they/them has got 20k followers for promoting garbage takes and couldn’t even make a free throw.
