They won’t investigate the murders of Good or Pretti, but they’ll investigate fake 2020 election fraud. www.reuters.com/world/us/fbi...

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jewish people murdered by the Nazis, as well as countless other victims. We honor their lives by rejecting the evils of antisemitism, dehumanization, and authoritarian violence wherever they appear. Never again means never again for anyone.

Are you in favor of the second amendment or not? “You can’t walk in with guns,” Mr. Trump told reporters “

So it begins. “You cannot make a return on investment if you don’t have access to the U.S. market.”

Bill Cassidy knew that RFK Jr. would undermine access to and confidence in vaccines, but he voted to confirm him. Bill Cassidy knew Martin Makary would do the same thing, but he voted to confirm him too. Cassidy knew what he was doing and he didn’t care. He deserves endless blame for this.

1 wk ago my father lost his battle with melanoma. It was a fast illness. He was diagnosed in June 2025 & was in & out of the hospital since. It was hard to watch my father’s body get beaten down by cancer. Now I have to figure out how to exist in the world without him & I don’t know how

There isn’t a battle over truth. We saw the horrific video. We know what happened. And the other side is simply lying about these murderous thugs, counting on media outlets’ destructive combination of willful naïveté and obeisance toward their authoritarianism in the interest of having “balance.”

Two former presidents felt compelled to comment publicly

What a massive loss to public health

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

If you think things are business as usual in the federal govt. think again.

I hate it here 🫠

Come the F on! This is ludicrous.

You’ve got to be kidding me

This week's @defendpublichealth.bsky.social whopper is about RFK's calls to require more safety studies in all clinical trials. For COVID this led manufacturers to opt out of seeking a license for all adults in 2025/2026.

I say we lose our measles elimination status, what say you?

I suppose that “testing the limits of his presidency” is one way to say “doing blatantly unconstitutional and impeachable shit on a daily basis.”

When people loose trust in vaccines the answer is not to take them away. RFK must go. Bravo @jimalwine.bsky.social & @elizabethjacobs.bsky.social

We were on our way to eradicating certain cancers. This administration is killing people. "Projected Medicaid coverage losses are expected to result in over 1 million missed cancer screenings and hundreds of avoidable deaths within 2 years." #DefendPublicHealth @defendpublichealth.bsky.social

Ellison: This is the essence of dictatorship. It’s the essence of it. And we’ve got to get over the idea that this couldn’t happen here. Not only could it happen here—it’s happening here.

This is how you defend public health! @defendpublichealth.bsky.social

For those of you following the Guinea-Bissau hepatitis B vaccine: The Danish researchers have posted their updated protocol (called version 1.5). They still propose giving a lifesaving vaccine to only half of newborns and withholding it from others. www.bandim.org/wp-content/u...

In any functioning government, this man would be impeached, convicted, and removed from office by close of business today.

“Respondents viewed people who use opioids (81.0%; 95% CI, 78.4%-83.4%) and pharmaceutical companies (72.7%; 95% CI, 69.7%-75.4%) as most responsible for reducing overdose deaths”

Precisely.

Too bad none of MAGA/Heritage Foundation will neither read, acknowledge, nor understand this. Country is done for.

Donald Trump and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. are pig ignorant promoters of anti-science conspiracy theories. Both have done great harm to public health. Neither one cares.

NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya laid out his “new vision” for NIAID. Just as expected it is an infuriating list of unsupported claims and nonsense that serve his political beliefs and not health or science.

I am shocked, shocked I say, that RFK and Trump were full of shit.

Renee Good had a pulse when EMS arrived. I’m not sure it would have made a difference if ICE had let that civilian physician render aid before EMS arrived, but now we will never know. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

We cannot become numb to the weaponization of the Justice Department.

Timeline cleanse. My birthday trip to the Denver stock show to pet baby goats

This is seriously exciting. Now do adults bc my greatest fear is norovirus

It would be difficult to overstate the irreparable harm that John Roberts has caused for this country and the world.

Lancet study finds “no evidence” that Tylenol use in pregnancy increases the risk of autism, ADHD, or intellectual disability, despite claims by Trump and backers

Whenever people say there are ToO MaNy VaCciNeS now, I always respond with: Which of the following are you ok with your kids catching? Hepatitis? Meningitis? Polio? Severe diarrhea? Pneumonia? Measles? Incurable hepatitis? Pertussis? Tetanus? Diphtheria? Seriously-which one?

Boarding a flight from Denver to DCA (Regan airport) and TSA is AT THE GATE checking the IDs of every passenger. This feels off

Read all about scientific misconduct of the highest form

RFK is removing liability protections from vaccine manufacturers thus eliminating any profitability from vaccine sales. This will induce them to stop producing vaccines and it will also slow or prevent the development of new vaccines against deadly diseases🤯😣

So the Administration reinstated these grants, for now www.nytimes.com/2026/01/14/h...
