Trump on Tuesday asked a prominent anti-vaxxer to lead a commission on vaccine safety.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., son of Bobby Kennedy, said he agreed
to lead the commission, which will seek to ensure there is “scientific
integrity in the vaccine process for efficacy and safety effects,” Kennedy said.
Kennedy believes vaccines have led to a rise in autism, a claim that’s been debunked by doctors and scientists.
Kennedy told reporters Tuesday that Trump “has some doubts about the current vaccine policies.” Read more
@daaamian would probably make a better President tbh.
Do I know that person? No.
Do I agree with you? Yes.
I actually do think this is a good idea. This man does not care how much people scream and yell at him because it gives him attention. Reject everything relating to him, especially on TV. Completely ignore him. That’s the one thing that will get to this overgrown child more than anything.
I fully support this.
If you guys need something to watch in the meantime;
Kisscartoon.me is a website full of cartoons both new and old
Amazon Kindle currently has a lot of sales and deals for the new year (cheap books!!!)
The Game Grumps Sonic ‘06 playthrough is over 19 hours long
APL.tv is a live stream website run by animal planet where you can spend the day (or days) watching animals
“Despite all the cries of ‘no’ to normalization on the left, Trump will be normalized by the same corporate media that virtually boycotted Bernie Sanders. He will be respectfully called “the president” and his wishes and goals will be praised on cable news, and not just on Rupert Murdoch’s Fox Fake News. He’ll flash a smile and be friendly and anchors will treat him like a buddy (despite his having threatened their colleagues with bodily harm at his rallies and despite his having pledged to weaken the first amendment and sue reporters for libel). Rupert Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal is already pledging never to call Trump out when he is obviously lying. Since Trump is, like Dick Nixon, a pathological liar, this is like pledging not to cover his presidency.”
seriously he’s basically just come out and said “I am creating an SS”
“It turns out that the main function of Trump’s private security forces has been to deal with protesters at his rallies, which he has bizarrely continued to hold since the election and promises to continue to do so. This past weekend in Mobile, Alabama, he explained why:
They’re saying, “As president, he shouldn’t be doing rallies.” But I think we should, right? We’ve done everything else the opposite. This is the way you get an honest word out.
As Robert Reich observed in Newsweek, this is one of the ways Trump disseminates propaganda (such as insisting that he won in a landslide). One can easily imagine him telling his crowds that the CIA is plotting against him or that authoritarian policies are necessary to fight whatever enemies he decides are keeping America from being great again.”
There are about a billion issues with this, but the one I’m really wondering about is what if there’s a disagreement between his personal security and the Secret Service?
What happens then?
“I think we ought to get on with our lives. I think that computers have complicated lives very greatly. The whole age of computer has made it where nobody knows exactly what is going on. We have speed, we have a lot of other things, but I’m not sure we have the kind the security we need. But I have not spoken with the senators and I will certainly will be over a period of time.”
I can words. I use lots of words to not say anything. I words and more words tremendous. I very greatly use words to avoid answering questions and nobody will do anything about it because words are words and I can many words.
I mean, I suspect that is exactly what happened here.
It’s been common wisdom for awhile - and I can’t remember who first said it - that a dystopia is what happens when the life conditions for black folks in the US become the life conditions for white folks in the US.
