The maga project's war on reality has largely succeeded. Maga has a fantasy-based tribal consciousness that has Darwinistically outcompeted facts, and the alternative to fact- and evidence-based information has been for other tribes to retreat.

Reminder: there are tens of people hospitalized with measles in Lancaster county alone.
Let’s pretend we believe Kennedy’s efforts to misrepresent the deaths: he’s still failing in handling the outbreak and his misinformation about MMR will put more people in the hospital.
I would have said Trump, but it is clear Justice Roberts is the most dangerous menace today to American democracy. Roberts doesn't like democracy and never has. He simply lied, straight faced, during his confirmation hearings.
Case-cohort study shows Influenza vaccine significantly reduced death from influenza in children with or without underlying medical conditions. (And RFK Jr. is a dangerous idiot, as is Trump to pander to the anti-vaxer nonsense.)

A meta-analysis of 17 studies examining over 12M children found lower risks of COVID infection and hospitalization in those who were vaccinated.

Dr. #Fauci liked talking to the media long before it was glamorous. Long before it was fun. Long before it got him the attention of movie stars.
Like so many other doctors and scientists.

Unfortunately, expect much more of this in the coming election cycle.
When the rules against partisan electioneering from the pulpit go unenforced, abuses become the norm.
CHATTANOOGA TFP: “Despite longstanding tax law that prohibits political activity at the pulpit, a Chattanooga megachurch (Calvary Chapel) has continued to wield political influence in state and local politics this midterm election..” timesfreepress.com/news/2026…
