RFK Jr is set to announce Tylenol causes autism.
And then he’ll push the “cure”: leucovorin (folinic acid).
Who sells folinic acid? Dr. Oz’s supplement company, iHerb.
The same Dr. Oz who is now the Administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) in Trump’s administration.
Think about that: A government health official tied to the very supplement company that benefits from RFK Jr’s bogus “cure.”
This isn’t public health.
It’s corruption dressed up as wellness.
Autism was formally identified in 1911.
Tylenol wasn’t invented until 1955.
The spike in diagnoses? That’s from expanded diagnostic criteria and awareness; not Big Pharma boogeymen.
Not this time.
Stop blaming meds. Start reading history.
Just a reminder before the "big announcement."
Autism was differentiated from schizophrenia back in 1911. Tylenol was created in 1955.
Anyone trying to tell you that Tylenol causes autism is entirely full of shit.
Autism was discovered in 1911 and the modern definition of autism came in 1943. Tylenol wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Just getting everyone ready for the clown show tomorrow.

just checking in as promised.
So, Trump called a "truce" with the Houthis (who "showed a lot of bravery") way back in May... and they just sunk another ship.
Congrats.
A mural of the Statue of Liberty covering her face in shame was unveiled in Roubaix, France, one day before the United States celebrates Independence Day on July 4. The mural, titled “The Statue of Liberty’s Silent Protest,” was created by Dutch artist Judith de Leeuw, who painted the it over six days a building on Rue de Chemin-de-Fer. de Leeuw said the city of Roubaix "has a large migrant population, and many of them live in extremely difficult circumstances."
"The values that the statue once stood for—freedom, hope, the right to be yourself—have been lost for many,” she said.
The Statue of Liberty was a gift from France to the U.S. and stands on Liberty Island in New York – nearby Ellis Island, which was a stop for immigrants making their way to New York in 19th and 20th centuries. Both make up a National Park.

CHARLES PIERCE WRITES:
“In my life, I have watched John Kennedy talk on television about missiles in Cuba. I saw Lyndon Johnson look Richard Russell squarely in the eye and say, "And we shall overcome."
I saw Richard Nixon resign and Gerald Ford tell the Congress that our long national nightmare was over.
I saw Jimmy Carter talk about malaise and Ronald Reagan talk about a shining city on a hill. I saw George H.W. Bush deliver the eulogy for the Soviet bloc, and Bill Clinton comfort the survivors of Timothy McVeigh's madness in Oklahoma City.
I saw George W. Bush struggle to make sense of it all on September 11, 2001, and I saw Barack Obama sing 'Amazing Grace' in the wounded sanctuary of Mother Emanuel Church in Charleston, South Carolina.
"These were the presidents of my lifetime. These were not perfect men. They were not perfect presidents, god knows. Not one of them was that. But they approached the job, and they took to the podium, with all the gravitas they could muster as appropriate to the job.
They tried, at least, to reach for something in the presidency that was beyond their grasp as ordinary human beings. They were not all ennobled by the attempt, but they tried nonetheless.
"And comes now this hopeless, vicious buffoon, and the audience of equally hopeless and vicious buffoons who laughed and cheered when he made sport of a woman whose lasting memory of the trauma she suffered is the laughter of the perpetrators.
Now he comes, a man swathed in scandal, with no interest beyond what he can put in his pocket and what he can put over on a universe of suckers, and he does something like this while occupying an office that we gave him, and while endowed with a public trust that he dishonors every day he wakes up in the White House.
"The scion of a multigenerational criminal enterprise, the parameters of which we are only now beginning to comprehend. A vessel for all the worst elements of the American condition. And a cheap, soulless bully besides.
We never have had such a cheap counterfeit of a president* as currently occupies the office. We never have had a president* so completely deserving of scorn and yet so small in the office that it almost seems a waste of time and energy to summon up the requisite contempt.
"Watch how a republic dies in the empty eyes of an empty man who feels nothing but his own imaginary greatness, and who cannot find in himself the decency simply to shut up even when it is in his best interest to do so. Presidents don't have to be heroes to be good presidents.
@MikeKel25187159 @MasculineBased @bennyjohnson That would be a good zing if he had actually written the book.
OH… and if he hadn’t gone bankrupt six times.
Including casinos.
It would also make the “ten moves ahead in 3D chess” work better, but he couldn’t stay one step ahead of bankruptcy any of those times.
@JRand1685@nicksortor@HouseGOP It’s because the EO was toothless and performative. The reason that there’s a dem putting forward a bill is because the republicans won’t because they don’t want this.
With the EO Trump got to make a lot of noise but absolutely nothing will change because it can’t be enforced.
@nicksortor@HouseGOP Because democrats actually believe it should be a thing and have been advocating for it… the Executive Order was performative and will accomplish nothing, which is the way republicans want to keep this issue.
@StephenM Nice try at a subject change.
Trump caved.
He raised tariffs -> China raised tariffs
He says they will grovel. They don’t.
He lowers tariffs -> China lowers tariffs
He says he brokered a great deal. He didn’t.
We still pay the tariffs. You’re still creepy.
@USCBillofRights@GuntherEagleman Nothing changed.
He claimed victory as if the time at 145% tariff produced important concessions from China but it didn’t.
It did, however, send some US small businesses out of business.
I’m against that kind of ignorant performative nonsense that hurts Americans.
We pay tariffs.
