Jellyfish Rob Bresnahan folds like a cheap lawn chair and breaks promise to not cut Medicaid.
My representative in Congress, Rep. Rob Bresnahan (R, PA-08), had promised not to vote for cuts to Medicaid, and was quoted saying, “If a bill is put in front of me that guts the benefits my neighbors rely on, I will not vote for it.” And yet, he voted for the bill that mathematically would have to cut Medicaid.
New FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino never stopped promoting anti-vax nonsense for political attention.
Conservatives have admitted to running ad campaigns to convince liberals to be anti-mask, so I don’t doubt there’s been target marketing of anti-vax aimed at democrats.

Hospitals could certainly walk and chew gum at the same time when it comes to infection control given the right incentives and management.
Trump administration attempts to impound appropriations under the responsibility of Congress.
The odd memo out of the White House that started freezing access to Medicaid portals and threatened to shut down daycares is some pretty wild overreach…

Who is working to protect healthcare workers & public health advocates from the threats of anti-vaxxers?
My letter to reps: What are you doing to protect doctors, healthcare workers, and public health officials and disabled and senior advocates from violent anti-vaxxers?
