Nothing has killed more soldiers in the history of humanity than disease. While worst is a more complicated question Hegseth is absolutely the dumbest secretary of defense the United States has ever had. bsky.app/profile/ones...

CDC Quietly Appoints Doctor Critical of Vaccines as Second in Command. During the Covid-19 pandemic, Dr. Ralph Lee Abraham promoted discredited treatments like ivermectin and, as Louisiana’s surgeon general, halted the state’s mass vaccination campaign. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/25/h...

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment: "To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

The newly ousted director of the CDC refused to fire top agency leaders or approve changes to vaccines from RFK Jr.’s hand-picked panel of advisers.

Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:

National pediatrics group splits with RFK Jr. on Covid vaccinations: The American Academy of Pediatrics recommended the shot for all children between 6 and 23 months | STAT www.statnews.com/2025/08/19/p... via @statnews.com

So ridiculous. (And so familiar)

Sounds like this survivor of Epstein and Maxwell is saying she'd take Trump pardoning Maxwell as an admission of guilt, which sounds like a smart message.

Very much enjoyed coaching Nashville Aquatic Masters 5 and 6 AM practice this morning. Great to start the day with such terrific, motivated folks

I have precisely zero conflicting feelings about missing/dead children.

Medicaid is not a money laundering scheme and you are a sorry excuse for a Senator, Lindsey.

National Guard, Marine deployment in LA costs $134M: Pentagon www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Today RFK Jr. fired every member of ACIP, the CDC committee that makes vaccine recommendations. Children will die. This is not ok. Lindsey Graham enabled this.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.

Where was this important 1st randomized trial performed? China Where are 8 of the 10 most productive research institutions in the world as of March 2025? China nature.com/nature-index... What country is radically defunding research and will lose its competitiveness? USA

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

FDA is set to restrict access to Covid shots for healthy people 6 months-64. I asked HHS if initial shots will be available to infants; no answer. One former CVS executive thinks healthy ineligible people who want a shot will face new costs. w / @maggieastor.bsky.social GIFT:

Hi, BlueSky. It's Hillary. I've joined up here to help get the word out about an important election in Wisconsin tomorrow, and other ways to defend our democracy against those who think votes can be bought.

We owe him much for his leadership at CBER during a period of remarkable therapeutic advances. The havoc caused by this administration will have a devastating impact for years. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Such a small petty man: Trump removed a mural of Anthony Fauci from NIH which read, “Science is telling us that we can do phenomenal things if we put our minds and our resources to it.”

25 yrs older than the next oldest in the heat & 50 yrs older than the youngest. Time a half second slower than Nationals last year. Some things to clean up before Nationals in April but happy to be racing. #NACMasters

On behalf of many Americans, don’t thank us we THANK YOU Ukraine for your work.

Colorado's Rep Brittany Pettersen (D) flew cross-country with her one-month-old to vote against the GOP budget tonight. Dems ended up one vote short. Pettersen was part of an unsuccessful bipartisan push to allow new mothers to vote remotely. #copolitics

The next step in trying to dismantle Infectious Diseases research - dismantle @niaidnews.bsky.social - should surprise no one that this a R-led proposal. An unmitigated disaster for diagnosis, treatment and prevention of pathogens that affect everyone in the US www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

I love the @cibmtr.bsky.social working committees and proposals. They sustained my career over the years as a constant opportunity for collaboration and learning! All early stage investigators should be heavily involved! @astct.bsky.social

JD Vance - If you believe any of the multiple federal courts that have ruled against you so far are exceeding their statutory or Constitutional authority, your recourse is to appeal. You don’t get to rage-quit the Republic just because you are losing. That’s tyranny.
