This miserable fraud has poisoned the national conversation about lifesaving vaccines with his conspiracy theories, but he is also doing so much more to destroy science and progress.
This will grind lifesaving research to a halt and set us back decades for no good reason.

By this point, everyone must understand that Trump is a liar.
As long as anti-abortion extremists who believe a fetus has the same rights as a person hold sway in the Republican Party, the GOP will NEVER support IVF in a meaningful way.
Trump is afraid of a House Democratic majority, so he's asked Texas Republicans to redraw the maps nearly a year out from the election.
This is just a corrupt & brazen power grab.
If this is how Republicans want to do things, Democratic states should absolutely respond in kind.
Save Medicaid. Stop abortion bans.
If we want to actually do that, we need to make sure everyone knows about Trump's Big Ugly bill.
I was in Seattle today to help make sure people understand Republicans are the reason why hospitals will close, wait times will be longer, and costs will skyrocket.
BREAKING: A top government watchdog confirms that YET AGAIN, Trump is illegally withholding your taxpayer dollars.
This time, it's NIH funding—they're blocking CANCER research. Clinical trials will be cut short and labs will shutter.
Trump needs to answer for this personally.
Here’s the thing to understand about Trump's cabinet: They'll never admit a mistake—and they'll always pick a fight.
They're focused on social media & confrontation.
Every failure is an opportunity to double down and lie about how you’re actually making America great.
The economy is adding barely any jobs right now and where we’ve seen new jobs it's been in health care.
Well guess what? Republicans just passed the largest cuts to health care and Medicaid EVER.
We need to reverse those cuts and end Trump's tariffs if we want to salvage our economy.
Here’s what just some of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein's victims had to say about the outrageous preferential and delicate treatment Trump is offering a convicted child sex trafficker.
This is a disgusting perversion of justice.
The entire premise of Trump’s trade war is unimaginably stupid.
There is no “making it in America” when the “it” in question is coffee or green tea, which we cannot grow at scale here in the United States.
Republicans need to vote with us to finally end these tariffs.
Trump just moved to outlaw women veterans who are victims of rape or incest from getting abortion care at VA.
Republicans don’t care if your health is in danger, if you’re a veteran, or if you’ve been raped—they want abortion outlawed everywhere, for everyone.
The Senate just voted to pass bipartisan bills to fund military construction, VA, agriculture, FDA, and more.
Passing these bills ensures that CONGRESS decides how taxpayer funds are spent—NOT Russ Vought or President Trump.
This is a good thing for our country.
It is seriously dangerous territory when Trump fires anyone who doesn't cook the books for him.
The entire economy hinges on the accurate, nonpartisan data we get from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Republicans need to join us in fighting to protect the integrity of BLS.
This is because of cuts Republicans in Congress enacted.
Understand it will be LOCAL stations in RURAL communities that will shutter and people living in rural communities will be most affected.
It won’t be easy, but I'll keep fighting to restore funding for public media.
So far Trump’s tariffs mean the average American household loses out on $2,400.
This is a MASSIVE tax INCREASE because we’ve got an economically illiterate President in charge.
Republicans need to join Democrats to reassert our power over trade and END these tariffs.
Republicans will stop at nothing to ban abortion nationwide, even if it means ripping away cancer screenings & birth control.
That's why their Big Ugly Bill defunds Planned Parenthood.
@smith.senate.gov and I introduced a bill to reverse this and save this essential health care.
We should absolutely pass a ban on stock trading for all Members of Congress along with the President and Vice President.
To my Republican colleagues, let's put this bill on the Senate floor immediately.
Democrats offered an amendment to simply ensure that if taxpayers spend $1 billion retrofitting a Qatari jet, it doesn't transfer to Trump after his presidency for his personal use.
Republicans voted NO and blocked the amendment.
This is the most corrupt administration in history. Easily.
Tonight I voted YES to block the sale of certain weapons to Israel to send a message to Netanyahu's government.
This legislative tool is not perfect, but frankly it is time to say ENOUGH to the suffering of innocent young children and families.
My full statement. ⬇️
Republicans just voted to confirm Joe Kent, a conspiracy theorist with white supremacist views, to be in charge of counterterrorism.
We had all the evidence we'd ever need to know he's not competent or going to do the right thing.
Republicans will own this vote and Kent's record.
