Kids, one who is now autistic. Since vaccinations cause autism, but now i have some good news. U. C. Davis, right over there, has just done a great m. R. I. Study of children with excess food on the brain fluid on the brain. What it proved is babies with excess fluid on the brain, 100 of them, develop autism. We know what causes autism. I urge you all to do your homework, a google the u. C. Davis m. R. I. Study. See the evidence. Dont listen to what the mass media says, they are working for big pharma. We need an end to this autism epidemic that is driving the cost up for the School District. We have more and more autistic kids in the school every year. Black lives matter. Four times more black students fail in the San Francisco school system. You report every year. Four times more. Why . There is a movie out called fax. It starts next week nationwide. It points out that four times more black students get autism from vaccinations then do every other student in the school system. I supp

So if youre driving from vallejo to make it to San Francisco, were coming up on almost an hour drive time. This is a look at the san mateo bridge. Its more crowded. Its not stop and go, but theres some slowing along the way. On 92, 101. When you get over there, it doesnt look too slow. One on
Tragedies. Careers, perseverance. Thats what we need. The loss of life staggering in maui. Crews sifting througug ashehes of lost homes and historic landmarks after the deadliest wildfire in the country in 100 years. So far, its a better return in the stock market. An east bay man loves collecting toy cars, he has so many. Its almost unbelievable and his hobby has become his lifeline. Just being with kid, theyre magical. And heading back to school one remarkable teacher has made a difference for thousands of young minds all from the same classroom for decades. And we hope you are having a great start of your morning. Getting your coffee and getting your kids up for school and ready. You are not quite there yet. Im nicole s lawniest back for a second day. You guys didnt scare me off.
