Americans paying the price from Trump and Kennedy's disinformation about vaccines nytimes.com/2026/06/02/well/…

Today's ACIP meeting is usually a time where experts come together to inform the future of vaccines. That is not what today will be. That is not what we can stand behind. The AAP will continue to recommend its own childhood vaccine schedule -- just as we have since the 1930s.

The Supreme Court’s decision today does not change the science. Gender-affirming care remains evidence-based, medically necessary care that improves the health and well-being of transgender youth. Learn more: bit.ly/3FT7p2d

While today's guidance from @cdcgov allows families to continue to choose the Covid vaccine, how we got here is troubling. Decisions this important should go through trusted, evidence-based processes--not political shortcuts. bit.ly/4kN9prI

This updated vaccine schedule from @cdcgov is good news in that it preserves families' choice and ensures the Covid vaccine remains accessible. We have major concerns with the process and confusing @hhsgov messages shared earlier this week, however. cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/imz-sch…

Wow, this isn't just an endorsement of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz by Bruce Springsteen, it's a sermon, a song, and a love letter to America!

Holy shit. Biden just turned Marjorie Taylor Greene’s own words attacking him into a commercial.

As you process the devastating news that another tragic school shooting took the lives of three innocent children in Nashville, Tennessee, today…
Remember the school shooter didn't act alone.
He was assisted by 222 House members, 49 Senators, and the NRA.

Woah. A mother in Nashville just took over a live stream on Fox News to call out Republicans’ opposition to gun reform. (h/t @atrupar)

John Oliver absolutely destroys Ron DeSantis!
Here's part 1 of 3 where he exposes the really weird support DeSantis gets from people like Kari Lake, the criticism from Trump, the dishonest right-wing propaganda machine and a really weird BS campaign ad.

Hoo boy this article by @BrettMmurphy @propublica ‼️
"Junk science in the justice system is nothing new. But unvarnished correspondence about how prosecutors wield it is hard to come by."

My colleague and friend @jaketapper underwent a horrifying ordeal with his daughter Alice. A medical misdiagnosis. He asked me to tell their story as a cautionary tale — one that happens 7 million times a year
