A real president does this. Thank you to every veteran who’s worn the uniform and carried the weight for the rest of us — just respect 🇺🇸

This story about the lawsuit by a former business associate against former #FDA drug czar George Tidmarsh is beyond wild. Tidmarsh resigned Sunday after being placed on leave by Commissioner Marty Makary. www.statnews.com/2025/11/03/g...

Just spent 2 hours figuring out the next year premiums for my family. I mean, all plans suck, some suck more than others. Coverage is poor, prices are ridiculous. 💩😡

Over the last 10 months, the federal government has cracked down on political expression with a persistence and viciousness reminiscent of some of the darkest periods of U.S. history. Welcome to the Third Red Scare.

Cheryl Hines—who has mostly steered clear of RFK’s antivaxx world—headlined a weekend gala for Children’s Health Defense. At the private party, which I watched from the back of the room, she praised CHD and hawked her book— proceeds which were promised to CHD. www.msnbc.com/news/news-an...

As expected, Canada has lost its measles-free status because of the long-running outbreak there. With it goes the #measles elimination status of the entire zone of the Americas, the only division of the #WHO to ever have achieved measles elimination. www.statnews.com/2025/11/10/m...

Goodness! This is 💩.

Gotta hold off on donating more to the Dems. They still haven’t exactly earned the previous ones. Yet the money-asking messages keep coming multiple times a day. Maybe ask yourself what exactly you did to earn those donations.

All of our leaders hate us and don’t care if we suffer or die

polling has repeatedly shown that the democratic party’s brand and current leadership have a serious credibility problem, but they are acting like they don’t

Who can pay $1455 per month? Thats >17K per year. Thats only premiums. Add to it high deductibles, non covered costs, etc. And this is only healthcare. Then we are surprised people are not conpliant with labs, tests & meds. Because it is f*cking unaffordable to be compliant.

In a normal democracy, a total collapse of party leadership would result in an no-confidence vote and immediate snap elections to find leaders who can lead

We already barely have healthcare...compared to the other developed world...

No health care, no deal.

Did you get your new healthcare premium notice yet? “Medicare for All” is starting to sound real good to a lot of folks who didn’t want to talk about it before. Same page now!

Honestly? Given the cuts at the CDC and FDA, I'm surprised that they caught this

There is nothing an American president could do worse for his own people than starving the poor right before Thanksgiving. Except for, I don’t know, lying about a plague and getting a million of his own citizens killed. Oh wait, let’s also not forget the time that he:

$40B of your money to this guy, so he can dance at CPAC at Mar-a-Lago while Americans wait for their paychecks, hoping the money actually comes.

👀 "Federal and state health officials are investigating 13 cases in 10 states of infant botulism linked to baby formula that was being recalled"

New: The current “AI race” media frenzy, whether framed as productivity revolution, Chinese competition, or AGI salvation, is either largely myth-making or missing the most crucial point. So let me challenge that frenzy with a different story. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/protagon...

There’s a cult of ignorance in the US and always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.” - Isaac Asimov

Being on SNAP benefits for 17 years, I've NEVER been told I wouldn't be paid my benefits. NEVER. What is going on is BEYOND cruel. The ppl w/disabilities, ppl w/chronic illnesses & cancer, seniors already isolated, the 16M hh's w/children. WE REFUSE TO BE A NUMBER. WE ARE PEOPLE. WE DESERVE DIGNITY.

A+ as usual by @wendyorent.bsky.social www.accountabilityjournalism.org/insights/kq0...

Nothing screams "I don't give a shit about the American people" like Trump getting the Supreme Court to pause SNAP payments to starving families.

The selective silence of the media is stunning. Florida physicians are blamed for not speaking against Ladapo’s war on vaccines, yet our letter - signed by more than 1,200 verified physicians urging to keep the mandate - went unpublished by big media.

More about our rally & march RFK Jr has got to go!

The lableak theory is becoming the new Hunter's laptop or Hillary's emails. When they have nothing else to say, they pull the old poorly made conspiracy & start drama. As they destroyed the entire healthcare infrastructure, they revive the lableak conspiracy to justify the distraction & cruelty.

Let this sink in. The President of the United States is now appealing a court order forcing him to feed starving children.

Some pictures from the rally and the march!

That Oval Office episode is as comical as it gets - a perfect snapshot of the country right now. Everything’s falling apart, the HHS Secretary flees, the “dear leader” poses for cameras, and only a doctor (even a snake oil doctor) rushes to the one in need.

Nice succinct summary! Lol @solnatamd.medsky.social

This is what happens when a country (the US) looks backwards and not forwards

Yes, we did👇🏻 Hundreds of public health workers & their allies marched from the National Mall toward HHS headquarters at the Hubert H. Humphrey Building on Wednesday. Their mission: Demand HHS Secretary RFK Jr.'s resignation.

I may need to order a Medic Alert bracelet that says "Dr. Oz is to never touch me".

Please put this on the cover of Time magazine.

Looking forward to working with you and the rest of the @scienceai.bsky.social to build on this momentum!!

So proud to have been part of organizing this event! We marched! We made ourselves heard! We’re not done!

@scienceai.bsky.social @accountabilityji.bsky.social @nursesforamerica.bsky.social @psr.org

Hundreds of doctors, concerned citizens, public health professionals, and science allies joined us in Washington DC to let the world know: RFK Jr. has got to go! #ImpeachtheQuack @apha.org @moveon.org @physiciandemocracy.medsky.social @pnhpnymetro.bsky.social @drsforamerica.bsky.social and more

Thanks to @bookersquared.bsky.social for recording this video from the rally/march we helped organize. RFK has got to go!

I don’t understand camps saying: Dems need to follow the Mamdani model to win the midterms; or Dems need to follow the Spanberger model to win. It’s a big country. Different approaches work in different places. Candidates who connect w/their specific constituencies is the model.

Dr. Bob Morris @rdmorris.bsky.social delivered a very passionate and powerful speech at the rally. Please see the text of his speech open.substack.com/pub/drbobmor...

"Let me be clear: The president has both the funding and the authority to fund SNAP during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.” Gov. Andy Beshear

RFK has got to go!
