Author Alisa Valdes (Rodriguez)  Many of us wonder why no one is “doing something” about the nightmare engulfing us all in the United States right now. I think I know why. Let me explain. It’ll take a minute. Grab some tea. Get cozy. I was... tmblr.co/ZK6zUyi0Mcyyii…

My resignation letter from CDC. Dear Dr. Houry, I am writing to formally resign from my position as Director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), effective August 28, 2025, close of business.

Iceland is the world’s biggest consumer of SSRIs. They’ve had fewer than 10 gun homicides since 2020; in the US, there have been over 95,000 in that time. It’s the guns.

To be clear, CDC Director Susan Monarez was nominated by Trump and confirmed in a party line vote 51-47 by Republicans a month ago. She refused to resign amid pressure to change vaccine policy, so now RFK Jr. is trying to fire her. This is literally *their pick* for this post:

RFK JR: "I’m looking at kids...and I see they are just overburdened with mitochondrial challenges, inflammation—you can tell from their faces" Me: I'm looking at the HHS Secretary and I see an anti science crank who doesn't have a clue what he is talking about

I remember trying to trend Dementia Don so yah!

#CDC

His plan: - ban cell phones in Ohio schools (they’re already banned) - bring back Science of Reading (it’s in place now) - physical fitness (Tressel is already doing it) - merit pay (tried, failed) - destroy teachers unions (tried and failed) And so on. It’s truly hot air.

How about this logo?

"The mainstream press is still in self-flagellation mode over how they purportedly 'ignored' Biden’s decline. (In reality, they never stopped talking about.) But this soul-searching is apparently only backward looking & exclusive to Democratic presidents" publicnotice.co/p/trump-health…

This is good: With Trump/RFK destroying CDC, JB Pritzker's officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines from manufacturers and distributing them in-state themselves, source tells me. Dem govs must step up and fill the void. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/199853…

Amen!

Because they’re cedeing Africa to China.

A scientist who resigned from the CDC this week warned that RFK Jr. has shown signs he believes in eugenics. trib.al/ZxIbqoz

Dems should respond to Trump/RFK destruction of public health in this country by polarizing the debate to the max. Dem govs should scour every corner of the law for creative new ways to defend their people from RFK's madness. Some thoughts on this here: newrepublic.com/article/199853…

Donald J. Trump and Lara Trump will debut their new variety show “Trump Squared!” The President and his daughter-in-law will sing and dance through the entire Village People catalog. JD Vance will make a guest appearance with his backup dancers The Sofa Cushions.
