Trump tore up Obama’s Iran deal because Obama’s name was attached to it. Now Americans get: • another Middle East disaster • soaring gas prices • rising food costs • global instability • no exit strategy Trump promised peace. He delivered chaos. And now he’s trying to redefine failure as “progress”

Khanna: "This is a Dred Scott court. They have engaged in the fastest rollback of Black political rights since Rutherford Hayes ended Reconstruction in 1877. One-third of African American seats are threatened. We are not speaking up strongly enough against a court that's rolling back civil rights"

DeTrumpification is as necessary a project to the US as DeNazification was to Germany. Everything removed from everywhere, including every person in the Trump party from every elected and appointed position of public trust, with all appropriate investigations, charges, and trials.

I was skeptical, but here's the Armed Forces own paper about it. taskandpurpose.com/news/arlingt...

We had a rehearsal for my kids bat mitzvah at a local synagogue, the one we've had to move to since the attack on our temple. They've been warm, welcoming, "hamische".

Fascinating how the Trump Administration always gets its inspiration from the Nazis...

Yeah the only way he “overdosed” on fentanyl in the evidence room is by lining it up and snorting it.

I just took action with @theactionnetwork.bsky.social: Endorse the People's Health Platform!. Take action here: actionnetwork.org/forms/endors...

'ROOTS' BANNED | The Pulitzer Prize winner that sparked nationwide interest in genealogy and aired to 130 million TV viewers is now banned from Knox County school libraries. Details: www.wbir.com/article/news...

Why is it that if you want to look up journal articles full text in your institutions online med library it's like using a DOS/UNIX interface with an old modem?

hey #medsky folks, anyone having epocrates probs? I've used it since I had it on a PalmPilot but lately it's demanding a subscription

If we taxed billionaires anything approaching a "fair" amount, they would still all be billionaires

Watching a series of former Confederate states rush to eliminate any vestige of black representation in the House pretty much answers the question whether the Voting Rights Act was still necessary.

Marty Makary was the worst FDA commissioner in 25 years. I have covered the agency that long. I don't say this lightly. He failed at the political, organizational, and scientific aspects of the job. Here's why: www.statnews.com/2026/05/12/m...

"We spend $800,000 a year just on our security team," Lader said. "It's money we could be spending on feeding hungry people, sending kids to camp, giving scholarships for preschool, and instead we are funding our own army to keep ourselves safe."

I can remember every detail of every one of my patients but i legit cannot keep straight the names and details of people I'm supposed to know well, like extended family by marriage, etc.

Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this. I believe this is activist Gary Chambers again in Louisiana.

Last summer Jim O'Neill, the CDC director, demanded that Merck and GSK break up the MMR vaccine into 3 different shots. Both companies responded basically by saying "fuck you, make me" and it never happened.

If you own EV in the state of Michigan state charges you extra for your registration in order to make up for the lost gasoline tax. What a perverted incentive.

It is getting more and more frustrating and more and more dangerous, this conflation of "israel" "zionist" and "jewish". It would be foolish for a moral person to say anything but that Israel's actions in Gaza and West Bank are horrific and unjustifiable...

Unearthed reports reveal that RFK Jr. fired every full-time CDC cruise ship sanitation inspector ahead of the Hantavirus cruise ship outbreak. www.cbsnews.com/news/cdc-cru...

If I want advice about the best way to strip the dick off of a dead raccoon I’ll consult RFKJr and his pack of psycho woo merchants, otherwise they can fuck right off about how I say healthy.

why do people claim our problem is polarization when our problem is clearly fascism? I talk about some reasons. those reasons are: they like fascist policy, they want to use fascism for power, and/or they are in community with fascists. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/the-polari...

1. ICE has not paid for detainee medical care for 7 MONTHS The termination of payments to providers has coincided with a MASSIVE SPIKE in detainee deaths. This is a health crisis and a moral crisis. Follow along for details. 🧵

Last night I dreamed I was canoeing

About a month and a half ago our synagogue was attacked. I wrote a bit about it at the time. I just signed off of a town hall zoom. It's...hard.

If you’re first in line at the coffee shop and it’s been a long wait why don’t you have your order ready?

Prior to modern medicine, disease killed more soldiers than combat. I’m guessing that weakened our war-fighting capabilities.

Texas' only licensed Hindi, Punjabi, and Urdu legal interpreter is now languishing in a Raymondville detention center. She’s lived in America for 35 years: www.texasobserver.org/immigration-...

“Dr. Bolivar, who holds a valid work permit and has lived in the United States for a decade, was detained by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security while traveling with her five-year-old U.S. citizen daughter to a previously scheduled asylum interview.” www.acep.org/news/acep-ne...

RFK Jr. pushed cod liver oil as a measles treatment—now Texas children are hospitalized with liver damage. Utah has 583 measles cases. The MMR vaccine is 97% effective. Kennedy runs U.S. public health. Three people died last year. This is the cost of pseudoscience. Scientific research saves lives.

Ok, need a new EHR and too many imperfect choices. Medicine folks? Small internal med practice.

Rx: zepbound for severe sleep apnea Insurance co: denied Me: patient has severe OSA, med is indicated for this, please reconsider Ins: the reason they have OSA is because they're obese so you're really rx for obesity which we don't cover

I think people are allowed to draw conclusions about the American people based on their decision to put this man in office bsky.app/profile/pear...

It's like America's parents caught us smoking authoritarian, racist, evil incompetence, and now they're making us smoke the whole pack to teach us a lesson.

Tonight begins the Jewish holiday or Passover, when most of the world’s 15 million Jews—secular and religious—gather to celebrate freedom. Whether or not you believe in the literal Exodus of the ancient Israelites from Egypt, the Jewish people have certainly had more than our share of oppression.
