Today is World AIDS Day, a day that reminds me of the decades-long fight for dignity, science, and compassion. We’ve come so far because activists, researchers, and communities refused to be ignored. It’s important to acknowledge that Donald Trump is slashing funding for HIV prevention and global health programs, undermining public health agencies, and treating vulnerable communities as political collateral. That is not leadership. It’s cruelty dressed up as policy. Let’s be louder than his hate today. Let’s honor those we lost by defending science, protecting care, and standing with the LGBTQ+ community and everyone affected by HIV/AIDS. We owe it to history, and to each other, to never go backward.

Marco Rubio knew the truth 9 years ago, but he sold his soul for power. Yet he was correct: He will one day have to explain his support for Trump, and this is not going to end well. image
