RFK Jr has cut Alzheimers research.

Alzheimers.

One of the most devastating, urgent and increasing health problems we face today.

He's not interested.

He's a nasty piece of work.

We don’t have an innovation problem.
We have an understanding problem.

Scientists invent.
Engineers build.

Then activists, influencers, and politicians convince the public to fear it.

The bottleneck isn’t technology.
It’s trust.

There is no safe level of lead for anyone,

but especially children.

The Equal Pay Act was a crucial first step, but it had major structural limitations that kept the wage gap from narrowing for more than a decade. Following its passage, the median annual gender wage gap for full-time, year-round workers stubbornly hovered around 59% to 60% until the late 1970s. /7

The EPA originally excluded most white-collar positions, a gap fixed by the Education Amendments of 1972. Furthermore, it only mandated equal pay for women who already had a job. It did not stop companies from refusing to hire women or refusing to promote them into higher-paying roles. /8

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Donald Trump's former economic advisor just admitted on Fox News that inflation is being driven nearly exclusively by bad decisions that Donald Trump has made. Wow.

@AZAGMayes What has @krismayes done to protect our children?

There is no safe level of lead. Period.

Tell us about the time you stole billions from Medicare, Rick.

If you haven’t taught in a classroom post-Covid, you don’t know what it is like to teach the modern student.

The students have changed.

Teaching has changed.

You have to be in the classroom daily to understand what I mean.

This is Trump’s Watergate.

Today, the @nytimes released a truly stunning report on the Epstein cover-up by the White House. 

Collusion, breaking the law, evading subpoenas—it’s all in there:
- Trump quashing the files
- The VP, COS, DOJ, FBI, and others colluding in the Situation Room to stop their release and compliance
- Officials lying to the public 
- Admin in-fighting and exits
- Officials who appeared in front of Congress during this time

Read the report here: https://t.co/prgyF2Isfg

Jill Biden has a new book out on life in, and after, the White House. "Well, it's not exactly a quiet life,"

In this candid interview, she talks about Joe’s cancer, the 2024 presidential race, the Biden family, grieving over the East Wing, and much more.

Tell her she is much loved and much missed @HunterBiden! 💙

The idea that “natural = good” falls apart the moment you learn what nature actually is.

Arsenic is natural.
Botulism is natural.
Smallpox was natural.

Insulin, vaccines, and clean drinking water are not.

Nature doesn’t care if you live.
Science does.

[Chris D. Jackson @ChrisDJackson]

I hope you’ll join me in wishing Ashley Biden a very happy birthday today!

Her work lifting up others, especially those too often overlooked, reflects the very best of the Biden family: empathy, resilience, and a deep belief in people.

Wishing her a wonderful birthday and year ahead. 💙

HOLY SHIT: Hunter Biden is about to have ONE MILLION followers in the next day or two on Twitter. And he just joined Twitter. NO ONE could do this, but Hunter. Holy shit. 😂🤣😂

Unbelievably sad to see this, thanks to you at least he learnt during 6 months how life was meant to be. But it was so short, the realization of how cruel dogs are treated is simply heartbreaking.
It makes me look at my own dog in a different way, treasuring every moment with him and also realizing how lucky both he and I are!

CAITLIN CLARK FOR THE LEAD WITH 1.2 SECONDS LEFT‼️

[Darren Rovell @darrenrovell]

These people have been waiting an hour to get into Madison Square Garden.

Here is a first person account:

“They routed everyone down to 34th and 8th.

Police barracade.

Through metal detectors to a point about 200 feet from MSG.

Then they came and apologized and said they were confused and instead we needed to exit the barracade and go to 34th and 7th.

We walked there and then a different set of police told us to go to 32nd and 6th.

There are hundreds, if not a thousand people, wandering around in giant herds not knowing where to go or how to get in.

The police keep saying they don’t know the protocol.”
