My adult daughter Rachel, works everyday, pays taxes, has friends, loves going to the movies, and listens to lousy (IMO) music. She has a meaningful and thoughtful life.

Our U.S. Dept of HHS has lost all of its humanity, compassion, and intellectual curiosity

Because of conventional medicine

-Your mother didn't die in childbirth
-You didn't get polio as a kid
-You've never seen smallpox
-Your friend with type 1 diabetes is alive because of of insulin
-You recovered from that infection because of antibiotics

Science saves lives

Enormous lies here from your new HHS Secretary

The HPV vaccine (Gardasil) is safe, effective, and is on the way to ELIMINATING cervical cancer!

RFK Jr is an anti vaccine fanatic who would rather your daughter got cervical cancer than a vaccine

Horrible, horrible man.

Insecure leaders ridicule others. Secure leaders laugh at themselves.

The ability to make fun of yourself opens the door to candor. It’s a mark of humility and a catalyst for learning.

Great leaders take their work seriously, but they don't take themselves too seriously.

Thank you @BlueJays fans for making me feel loved from day 1! It was an absolute honor to wear that jersey everyday. I cannot thank everyone enough. I had an absolute blast going to battle with the guys in that clubhouse everyday! Gave it everything I had! Love you Toronto!
