Former Vice President Mike Pence responds to the new White House website blaming Capitol Police over Jan. 6th: "I I think it's very offensive that the White House used taxpayer dollars and a taxpayer website to blame Capitol Hill police for what happened on Jan. 6th."

This President told us he was going to go after violent criminals. Instead, we have masked agents killing American citizens on residential streets. Our country is better than this. We are better than this.
Excited to have this published to round out 2025: Reimagining Self-Determination in Research, Education, and Disability Services and Supports. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.… @SageJournals

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut Education and Science Research the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

For more than two decades, scientists have studied whether vaccines cause autism. The answer has been consistent: there’s no evidence they do.
I compiled a list of 14 studies, covering more than 10 million children, that find no link between vaccines and autism.
Vaccines save lives. Sowing distrust in them puts our children’s health at risk.
CTRL researchers recently surveyed 106 parents of IPSE-enrolled students from 6 states to determine their knowledge & comfortability with sexuality education for adults w/ ID- take a look: rdcu.be/eNKjf @SpringerNature @USCResearch

I grew up being told “the older you get, the more conservative you become.”
I’m finding that the older I get, the more I just want our society to be more tolerant, charitable, kind, peaceable, and ensure that everyone has what they need to survive and thrive.
