Particularly when you examine the record, you know, factual information and evidence. Like photos of dem class interns in Congress versus Repubs. Or the same for pages in the senate and house chambers. Or the judiciary or within the executive branch. Carter was just buried and we have stupidity such as what you’ve highlighted. The real funny thing? Case studies show that organizations with true DEI initiatives and practices are more successful than those without. But duh, science, data and facts.

Blame the OTHER!

Patel and Gabbard, like RFK and Hegswoth, are completely unqualified for these positions. 

How do I respond with “100%”? Or a bullseye? Or The Fonz? Or an ostrich with its head in the sand? C’mon help out the too many characters typist time waster.

This is great...Patel denies it and then the video shows him laying out exactly what they did to record it

Perjury?

Trust in Science: The High-Stakes Game for U.S. Public Health

Sponsored by: Alliance for Aging Research - 01/07/25 9:42 AM ET

As health misinformation spreads faster on social media than even the most contagious viruses, Americans’ overall trust in medical scientists continues to be lower than before the pandemic, according to a recent Pew Research Center study. 

It’s no surprise then that—as misinformation fueled ongoing vaccine hesitancy in 2024—whooping cough and measles outbreaks surged four times higher than the year before. Mistrust in public health has grown far beyond vaccines to include questioning the safety of fluoridated water and pasteurized milk. Public health has more than just a public relations problem; the consequences are deadly.  

What damage has already been done and what challenges lie ahead? Who decides what is true information versus misinformation? And what can public health leaders do to restore trust in medical science and U.S. health agencies? 

Join The Hill as we convene leaders in government, healthcare, science and patient advocacy to answer these questions and more and make sense of the current state of healthcare discourse.

Like we needed them to give us more proof that homophobia is week?  Amazing how well the radical right provides proof of it's own pathetic weakness over and over again.

They are not exactly independent.  They are independently funded, relying on fees imposed on businesses to fund their budget.  They do not receive appropriations.  However, that has incentivized them to file many lawsuits with their army of lawyers, and forcing companies into consent orders with fines, rather than getting lawyered to death.  I know of a mid-size company that actually did take it all the way to trial and defeated the Bureau, and rightly so.  

I won't mourn Chopra being gone.  The CFPB has made many mistakes and is certainly partially responsible for the rise of predatory subprime lending that is largely unregulated at this point.
