Medicine and public health have added three decades to the human lifespan. Vaccination alone produced 40% of the reduction in child deaths.

And now a disturbed and unqualified man driven by crackpot theories is destroying the foundations of this work, including CDC.

Banning mRNA vaccines because some people have side effects is like saying we should ban electricity and go back to candlelight because some people get electrocuted

For our latest Sonoma Tasting Report, Staff Writer & Taster Courtney Humiston visited John Hamel of Hamel Family Wines at his Nun's Canyon Vineyard on Moon Mountain, where he has been working to achieve balance, resiliency and site-expressive minerality through biodynamic and dry-farming practices.

His efforts are clear in the Hamel Family Wines Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County Moon Mountain District Nun's Canyon Vineyard 2021. It’s a highly structured, intriguing wine that is intense yet buoyant, with vivid minerality and flavors of bright red fruit, hibiscus and rose tea. Most of the Hamel Family Wines Bordeaux-style bottlings are remarkably mineral-driven, reflecting the rock from which they came. Read more here: https://t.co/B5U4QpycZn

This is both an epic troll as well as a genius ad to make sure Canadians don’t completely boycott the United States.

Understand that the most important concession these cowardly law firms are making is unstated:

They will not represent any clients challenging government policy or abuse of power while Trump is president.

And thus abdicating a basic function of lawyers in a democracy.
