wow, which common vaccine was it?

🚨When the National Guard is Sent to our cities, But #Medicaid Is Cut🚨 We need to keep reminding leaders that a strong social safety net is what keeps us ALL safe. ✊🏾 #MedSky #PedSky #BlackSky

For those who were directly targeted by Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric, bipartisan tributes to him as a champion of free speech signal the mainstreaming of formerly extremist views, Nikole Hannah-Jones writes in an essay for The New York Times Magazine.

I know we're desensitized, but it's important to note, again, that today's events would have led to the immediate impeachment & removal of any president from at least Truman to at least Obama. We're hundreds of miles on the interstate past Richard Nixon's high school prank-level crimes compared to 👇

Earlier this month, U.S. House candidate @katmabu.bsky.social, 26, was involved in a confrontation at an ICE rally that went viral. “If they are willing to do this to a congressional candidate in front of a bunch of press, imagine what they're doing behind boarded-up windows.” Read more ⤵️

Expect any non-citizen (for now) in any position of power to be harassed and abused on pretext by the secret police.

This is the official communication from the FDA to physicians on acetaminophen use in pregnancy. - They acknowledge the lack of a causal link with autism - Essentially tell physicians to keep doing what we've been doing anyway It's very different from the press conference. Pass it on.

Biden ran to "Save the Soul of the Nation" Instead he: Restored broken norms rather than lead a healing transformation Lied about his health & held onto power instead of fostering healthy debate/transition Enabled a genocide Enabled Trump 2.0 Strong argument for one of the worst Presidents ever

I am weary. I hold on to hope. I just wish we had leaders that actually inspired it. www.startribune.com/readers-writ...

Hours after Charlie Kirk was shot, I emailed my editors at a major American newspaper a potential column focused on the role of Christian Nationalism + radicalization of young white Christian men. They killed it. This is what they published instead. The last line: The Show Must Go On.

The @startribune.com said they were ending my contract after a year. But, weeks after a year had passed since I signed in August 2024, I received these messages from my editor. So what was the real reason for firing me?

I know dis/misinformation is a thing, but if you are taking your health advice from a guy who thought it was a good idea to inject bleach into your veins to treat a virus.. rather than clinicians who have gone to school for a decade.. then you likely have bigger threats to your health than Tylenol

If the #ACIP votes not to recommend the MMRV anymore, then that vaccine won't be covered by the Vaccines for Children Program, which makes vaccines free for low-income families. Nearly half of kids are eligible for the program. Medicaid also may not cover the MMRV as a first dose, either. #Equity

A doctor attending at the #ACIP (but not a voting member) said the committee needs to consider equity. Some underserved communities have trouble getting time off from work or transportation to clinic visits.

I'm watching the ACIP meeting. #Follow along for updates. The committee will vote on whether to delay the hepatitis B vaccine for babies and whether to give the MMR (measles/mumps/rubella) and chickenpox vaccines separately.

The meeting of the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices is starting now. They will vote on delaying the hepatitis B vaccine (now given at birth) until baby is 1 month old, as long as mom tests negative. www.youtube.com/live/-6uBNXs...

We’d be in a much stronger position right now if mainstream Democrats had taken a common sense stand for First Amendment principles instead of piling on undergraduate standing up for Palestine.

We are off the looking glass & through the looking glass when Karl Rove has more spine than almost any national Democrat & The Wall Street Journal’s opinion editor more courage than any of the leaders at ABC or CBS or Fox or CNN or NBC.

The Republican Party that hated racial quotas sure does seem to like racial quotas

The Nation pulls NO punches, from @espiers.bsky.social "There's no requirement to take part in this whitewashing campaign. Refusing to join in doesn’t make anyone a bad person. It’s a choice to write an obituary that begins “Joseph Goebbels was a gifted marketer and loving father to six children.”

We’re condemning political violence right

Last chance to sign a petition to ACIP by pro-vaccine people, for those not comfortable writing their own comment, organized by Voices for Vaccines🙌🏾 c.org/nwTPLHYJgj

remember folks, we cant have gun restrictions because if we do the federal government will occupy our streets, imprison people without due process, ship dissidents to foreign gulags and things of that nature

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.

More than 4,000 film workers, including actors Joaquin Phoenix and Olivia Colman, have signed onto a pledge vowing not to work with Israeli film organizations that they believe are “implicated in genocide and apartheid against the Palestinian people.”

Just for fun, I'm going to give you some clips of the hate mail I got from being placed on Kirk's TPUSA Dangerous Professor list. Buckle up:

The night after the murder of Melissa Hortman, the Democratic legislator in Minnesota, the Yankees were at the Red Sox and neither team requested a moment of silence. For an actual public servant. Who we choose to hold a moment of silence for and who we do not are silences that speak volumes.

Neoliberalism will not counter fascism it will Embrace it. example 1,500,000

Protestors chant FREE DC FREE PALESTINE TRUMP IS THE HITLER OF OUR TIME To Trump, Vance, and Hegseth

“A new volunteer-led organization called Grandparents for Vaccines launched Sunday on National Grandparents Day with a mission to share firsthand experiences of life before vaccines were widely available.” [kgw.com]

I am here to say vaccines are awesome because guess what Denmark is close to completely eliminating the two most dangerous HPV strains (serotype 16 and 18) and with the cervical cancer.I think that is bloody AMAZING!!!! bit.ly/4pbHxjT

I am as livid as I can be without shimmering

This sort of modelling is obviously quite uncertain, but overwhelmingly it shows that vaccines have a massive saving in economic terms. The COVID-19 vaccines may have been the best investment that humanity ever made!

"The answer to economic anxiety is not even more moaning about coastal elites or “wokeness”: it is durable political power built on solidarity rather than predation. The only route to true security for all... is the solidaristic protection of all by all" @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social #BlackSky #MedSky

*Policies* can't be the only prescription to heal what's clearly broken in our nation. While policy change is important, what is needed most is communal solidarity & accountability. A commitment that won't be dependent on if an issue directly impacts us or our loved ones.

At some point folks will realize this *Christian* nation & its leaders treat children as dispensable It doesn't care if gun violence is the leading cause of their death It no longer cares if they're protected from preventable diseases or if they're cured from cancer

This is happening to our neighbors' families , our friends' families. It is not just happening "over there." It is happening to us. www.startribune.com/israel-war-p...

We’re in a tragic—but preventable—measles resurgence, w/over 1,200 U.S. cases & rising. So it's meaningful to be named one of @mspmag.bsky.social's Top Doctors 2025 in an issue focused on vaccines - mspmag.com/health-and-f... #MedSky #VaccinesSaveLives #ScienceSky

Tomorrow I’ll be joining an Instagram Live conversation hosted by @sahanjournal.bsky.social to talk about how the One Bloated Bankrupt Bill (OBBB) passed by Congress & signed in to law by the President earlier this month could impact immigrant communities enrolled in #Medicaid in MN. #TuneIn #MedSky

I am incredibly honored to be the DFL endorsed candidate for Minneapolis Mayor. This endorsement is a message that Minneapolis residents are done with broken promises, vetoes, and politics as usual. It’s a mandate to build a city that works for all of us. fatehformayor.com/donate

“'What particularly rings out is how certain large media outlets or owners or large conglomerates try to appease Donald Trump by settling lawsuits or by firing journalists [or] editors,' he said. 'It really resembles what happened in Hungary in the 2010s.'”

Minneapolis has long been the home to diverse communities and we have a long history of electing members of our many diverse and overlapping communities to represent us at every level of government.

Join us live on our Instagram @sahanjournal at 4 p.m. July 23, with panelists Ryan Pérez, organizing director of COPAL MN, and Dr. Nathan Chomilo, the medical director for the State of Minnesota’s Medicaid & MinnesotaCare programs.

So, what should Minnesotans know about these changes to Medicaid and MinnesotaCare? And how will it impact immigrants’ health care? We’ll discuss these topics on Wednesday. sahanjournal.com/inside-sahan...
