What scares Neil deGrasse Tyson most? The “unraveling of an informed democracy.” Vote November 3 so the Dems can help stop it. With three weeks left, help get out the vote any way you can. Links and tips in the first comment. Drop your own tips below too.

With FOOD EVOLUTION and SHOT IN THE ARM I have spent ten years pointing my camera at people who respect Science And democracy and those who don’t. Some of them are now running our health and sciences… badly. But hope exists in the brilliant pro-science creators in this video.

He said he had nothing to do with Children's Health Defense. RFK Jr.'s answer: "I have nothing to do with it." Last week he gave that organization's keynote. He thanked their board. He thanked their litigation chief. He thanked "the entire CHD team." Sources in the comments.

BREAKING UPDATE: Pennsylvania confirmed a fourth measles death. An 18-year-old from Mifflin County. Unvaccinated. Robert Kennedy Jr. calls them "so-called measles deaths." The state public health officials call them what they are: the first measles deaths in Pennsylvania in 35 years, and rising.

Neil deGrasse Tyson just laid out, in stark terms, what America loses when it stops welcoming the scientists from around the world. I added the receipts, and the people now dismantling the system that made them possible. America Is Losing Its Scientists. Vote carefully to get them back.

I asked Dr. Dan what stuck with him from my CSICon 2026 talk. His answer was a story my daughter brought home from 6th grade science class in 2014. Then I told it live, on stage, the way it actually happened. Science was already under attack in 2014. This is why that question still matters.

Robert Kennedy Jr. was hastily put in charge of special education in this country. I have a nephew who's autistic, and I wouldn't want RFK Jr. anywhere near him. Call your senators. Tell them not to let RFK Jr. near our special needs children. (202) 224-3121

Your feed might be furious about last week's Roundup ruling. Before you join the pile-on: the EPA has ruled glyphosate safe since the 1970s. So did health agencies in Canada, Europe, and Australia. Independently. Watch first, then decide. Then share.

Two months ago, Secretary Hegseth called the flu vaccine mandate "absurd" and "overreaching." Compliance dropped from 100% to 40%. At time of filming: 159 sick, 1 dead. As of today: that number has climbed past 220. Action > reaction. Science matters!

Our Tessa just turned 20. In 6th grade, her science teacher asked the class a question (slide 2). Tessa raised her hand: "Is the answer… nothing?" "Exactly. And science is under attack — that's dangerous for our future." That was 2014. She had no idea how right she was. Happy Birthday Tessa!

RFK Jr Walks Back His Own Tylenol Conspiracy. One month RFK Jr declared Tylenol a crisis. Then the next month he said there’s “no proof.” We’ve seen this b.s. from him before — in SHOT IN THE ARM. Science isn’t improv. Follow facts the first time.

At the same chaotic Tylenol press conference where Trump and RFK Jr. lied to and insulted moms, Dr. Oz announced a “breakthrough” autism cure the FDA never approved — and he’s reportedly invested in the company. This is what happens when daytime TV meets public health.

As six former Surgeons General & the nation’s leading psychiatrists warn of the dangers of RFK Jr. to public health, I wanted to give another angle on my origin. I used to take science for granted. Then I made two films with Neil deGrasse Tyson—and became a science-defending storyteller for life!

“Who to Trust? RFK Jr. vs RFK Jr.” He swears he never scared people about vaccines in Samoa. Then he wrote an article admitting an anti-vaxxer arranged the whole trip. So…who should we trust — RFK Jr? Or RFK Jr? And hey Senator Cassidy, when are you going to impeach this pompous, privileged prat?

The story RFK Jr. doesn’t want you to see: our Samoa sequence from Shot in the Arm. In 2018, 2 babies died from a vaccine mix-up—sparking 5k measles cases & 83 deaths. Instead of helping, RFK Jr. met w/ anti-vaxxers. These are not HHS qualities. Impeach RFK Jr. Two more parts coming…
