I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him. I'm talking about something very different. Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired. Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to. But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

I support trans kids

It’s the day, do you remember? Sad he’s no longer doing these, but man what a fun series of videos. youtu.be/Qfi9JpgMc2U?...

The DHS post is kind of a nice reminder and review of the many many people who are speaking up

Just a reminder to the #PedsICU gang, @sccm-pediatrics.bsky.social program committee is meeting now and tomorrow to plan the 2027 Congress (in San Diego) so this is a good time to submit proposals and update the bit.ly/picuwomenspeakers list

You want to be alive, but they want you dead. We’re a new, well, funded democratic group that thinks you can meet them halfway.

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer. The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial. Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

Watching the Men’s marathon tonight after watching the women’s last night. Realizing there is a single tiny advantage the women had in running a hot weather marathon…the men look like they could benefit from having a bra to stuff the ice bags into.

False start in the marathon. That’s a new one. Well, it happens not infrequently just haven’t seen them call it back.

I hope you all read this from me.

A colleague just heard that two NIH grant proposals -- totally aligned with addressing chronic disease -- one with a 4th percentile and one with a 1st percentile score, will likely not be funded. See rationale in the image. This does not seem like "radical transparency." #NIH #HHS

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

There was a school shooting today. Gun safety laws are needed! www.denverpost.com/2025/09/10/e...

Has anyone pointed out to this administration that foreign aid can actually help decrease migration, refugees and thus the influx of the people they don’t want here, and cutting it actually exacerbates it?

I really wish that when talking about Epstein and his crimes reporters would say "He did terrible things *to* underage women" instead of *with* We are talking about children and they are victims. I think the distinction is important.

You would think banning white people from carrying firearms would get us much farther...

There are people who are doing fantastic research on why the US has the “sickest people on earth.” But none of RFKJrs actions have addressed what they know would make a difference. Mostly he’s done exactly the opposite.

RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

You know what has extensive, well studied and well documented health risks, as well as national security risks…fossil fuels.

This 🧵 is long so please bear with me. It is compiles evidence in a historical timeline on how effective #COVIDVaccines are. When a pandemic ends we quickly and easily forget the tools that got us out of it. So here is my labour day gift to you prompted by this headline.

it’s hard to overstate: -how beneficial vaccines are -how massively overwhelming the evidence is showing no link between vaccines and autism -how impossible it is that RFK will somehow “find the cause” (at all, let alone in his first year) -how much RFKjr want to get rid of childhood vaccines

I have a list of things we can do to change this tempo of tragedy The proposals are based on real data They have had signals of efficacy It may feel hopeless today but: I refuse to give up. Because - Our babies & our communities deserve better than a rolling litany of horrors.

Fuck. Thinking of my colleagues in Minneapolis this morning. This shouldn’t happen. It’s long past time we do something.

I’m disappointed more people didn’t appreciate this.

I scary space monster, you leaky space blob.

If you know me at all - here, elsewhere, or irl - you know how important I believe it is to understand history. That it’s being perverted in this way and for this reason is obscene.

Oh this is sad. She was awesome on a great show. Danielle Spencer, Child Star on ‘What’s Happening!!,’ Is Dead at 60 www.nytimes.com/2025/08/12/a...

Did I crush everyone in studio for by live class with Hannah Frankson? Yes. Was that the point? Maybe….😂😂

My favorite little joke of Naked Gun (and there were many) was the @npr.org logo on the floor in the arena of the WWFC championship bout.

What I miss from Twitter is making good friends from far and near. Then meeting up with them while traveling. Like @drkanaris.bsky.social #PedsICU

ANE is a terrible disease. This is our experience with flu and ANE over the past 2 flu seasons.

This is an excellent game.

Heard from #AHRQ that the entire grants staff has been let go! They are unable to issue funds for grants already funded, let alone fund new grants. This is outrageous and will make Americans poorer and sicker. Why? A brief thread about just some recent AHRQ-funded research: #MedSky #HealthPolicy

Hospital chaplains are a vital part of the care we provide to critically ill children in the #pedsICU. Ayman Soliman sounds like a very good man and an excellent chaplain. www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

JUUL and everyone associated with it should be ashamed and should be shunned. We had teen smoking mostly licked after decades of leaning on (suing, exposing, boxing in) tobacco companies. Enter JUUL, which screwed the whole thing up with vaping.

In a new agreement, ICE will be given access to the personal data of the nation’s 79mil Medicaid enrollees, including emergency Medicaid. EM provides temporary coverage that pays only for lifesaving services in emergency rooms to anyone, including non-U.S. citizens. 1/2 apnews.com/article/immi...

Another article with more detail highlighting just how cruel this entire process is

Vaccines "are one of the best tools we have to protect children's health," says AAP President Susan Kressly. Watch the full conversation to hear why progress in vaccine policy is at risk and how the AAP is taking action. www.msnbc.com/katy-tur/wat...

I am sure glad ICE arrested a dangerous criminal who *checks notes* prays for sick kids and grieving families while they're in the hospital.

I really hope the Cincinnati medical community shows up to support Ayman and protests the evil that is occurring in this country at the hands of a fascist government.

This absolutely sucks. This man has provided so much comfort to our patients and families. Stupid and careless. Check out this article from Cincinnati.com: Cincinnati Children's chaplain detained by ICE www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2...

I’m doing my CITI training and can’t help but laugh at how many of the “requirements” I’m learning about are being flagrantly ignored by HHS leadership right now.
