There were howls of protest and denial from the GOP any time we pointed out that Republicans want to cut Social Security. Now the most powerful official in the White House goes on TV and calls it "the big one to eliminate."

The CDC will study a possible vaccine-autism link, though past research found no connection. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vaccine skeptic, oversees the agency. Experts warn this could divert resources from researching autism’s true causes. ow.ly/SPou50VfEVN

Former Meta exec Sarah Wynn-Williams filed an SEC complaint, accusing Meta of enabling censorship and giving China access to user data. She claims Meta proposed a "chief editor" for content control and local data storage for government access. Meta denies acting on it. #Meta

Daily reminder to fight the propaganda Segregation was more than racial separation. It was legalized oppression. Separate never meant equal. Black communities were deprived of resources. And forced into second class citizenship. Lynchings skyrocketed during Jim Crow as a result

This isn't true. In fact, more unique people and kids are getting diagnosed to receive support to do great things. There are big-time content producers and space/EV makers with autism. In some people, autism is a superpower.

RFK Jr. Stated that a spike in autism diagnosis started around 1989. What in our environment triggered it? Let's begin the hunt: 1988: Autism Awareness Month gained national recognition through a presidential proclamation.

1980: The DSM-III (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) listed autism as a distinct diagnosis for the first time. Before that, children with autism were often misdiagnosed with childhood schizophrenia, intellectual disability, or psychotic disorders.

So Autism entered the DSM in 1980, awareness campaigns were launched in 1988, and RFK Jr. wonders why diagnosis went up starting in 1989?
