This is not normal in a country with advanced levels of health care. This is death by legislative fiat. It’s never been about the “babies” - it’s always been about controlling women, and letting them die is just collateral damage.

So preventing cancer- (colonoscopy) or finding it way --mammograms- is too "woke"? This is absolutely unhinged. Damn the food dyes but power on colon cancer. ????

This is serious. Very serious.

so kids with injuries or serious illness are lazy & bad? And infecting others is good? We are living in the Upside Down

Republicans are waging a generalized war on science, but I think many of them don’t fully grok that RFK isn’t at war with science alone or per se: he’s at war with sick people, and of the view that only the lucky should be allowed to survive into old age. They are know nothings, he is Mengele.

ICE agents are thug scum.

Gift 🎁 link. As a former Conservator, I've had sig. experience w/ community & state mental health units/hospitals. They don't provide the care you might think they do, & w/ massive Medicaid cuts coming, they'll be able to do less, not more. The main question I think a lot... 1/5 wapo.st/4kP1UQl

The summary is that they are trying to criminalize every aspect of homelessness so they can arrest & forcibly commit unhoused people. Currently(/before), there are not enough mental health & substance use treatment beds/facilities, and this does not add anything, which only leaves imprisoning people

“Today, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists, he’s the only reporter in the United States sleeping in a prison cell for doing his job” The ‘free speech’ ‘anti cancel culture!’ party did this. Hypocrites. All of them.

FDA inspectors have uncovered new and dangerous breakdowns in drugmaking at an Indian factory owned by Sun Pharma that produces generic medications for American consumers. 🔗 Read more: propub.li/4lyXX3t

Programs that make it easier for working class kids to attend college are also illegally woke because *it is well recognized that race and ethnicity are inseparable from socioeconomic status* Starting to get a real vibe about this whole *merit* thing... www.thebaltimorebanner.com/education/hi...

Another thing Trump is actively making more expensive: our health insurance premiums.

This is depraved

I’m about to lose my health insurance. www.npr.org/sections/sho...

The author of this “bonkers” article, John Tierney argued for herd immunity via mass infection of unvaccinated youth in fall of 2020. That’s all he should be known for. Nothing else about him matters. My latest for @accountabilityji.bsky.social www.accountabilityjournalism.org/insights/joh...

Wtf?

I have no words. Everyone prepared for the constitutional crisis of the President defying the SCOTUS. The crisis is the SCOTUS being fully aligned with Trump’s vision of presidential power. So here we are.

Took an Uber to the train station this morning. Cab driver was pleasan but on a tear about contrails, aluminum, the government & "chemicals." I gently said "probably just the bad chemicals"but he was undeterred. "No all chemicals are poison to the body". 🤨. Not enough ☕️ yet for this conversation

The best way to prevent chronic disease and reduce the burden of chronic diseases is with preventive medicine. This also includes things like mammograms & colonoscopies (just to name 2) that not only prevent cancer but also make cancer far more treatable when it occurs. Eating organic food does not.

Sexual harassment, including assault, is a form of discrimination. That why it is illegal in the United States. Our study testing an intervention to address this was funded by the NIH, and that funding was prematurely terminated a few weeks ago bc the work no longer “aligns with agency priorities.”

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

A worker was killed. Dozens detained. Dr. Jonathan Caravello, A CSU faculty member and US citizen, was brutalized & disappeared by ICE for observing. Trump’s ICE thugs are escalating terror in our communities. Release them ALL. seiuca.org/press-releas...

“These detainees are living in cages. The pictures you have seen don't do it justice. They are essentially packed into cages. 34 detainees per cage.”

Fascism 100%. Not American. Not patriotic. Dangerous and evil

I have run out of levels of disgust. The cruelty is just enraging.

This guy is clueless.In prevention work, sometimes we will expect and communicate the worst risk and it doesn’t happen. Doesn’t mean we stop letting people know when science says BIG RISK AHEAD. To say “crying wolf” is the biggest problem is just dangerous, immoral, and wrong.

Vaccines work

Opinion: "And I am grateful for the way that not knowing allows room for a future that is different from the one I fear." www.nytimes.com/2025/07/07/o...

Have a feeling this is going to need to be re-upped a lot in the coming months

Sandy Hook parent says tragedies are inherently political: “You may not believe in climate change, but insurance companies absolutely do.”

Why are folks mad at the working mom with kids on Medicaid and SNAP rather than companies like Walmart that refuse to pay her a living wage and provide health insurance?

No matter where you live, there’s likely an Indivisible group near you that’s organizing the pro-democracy majority to reclaim its power. Find your local group: indivisible.org/groups Or let us help connect you with your nearest organizers: indivisibleproject.formstack.com/forms/organi...

If there’s nothing to hide, why hide everything? Five Democratic state legislators were denied entry to Florida’s new immigration “detention center” deep in the Everglades known as “Alligator Alcatraz.”

As US population level health data becomes ever-more unreliable … we are proud to unveil a new resource for families, policy makers, and healthcare providers @yalesph.bsky.social

This isn't immigration control, it's genocide.

Thank you to you, the people! Your fight is showing up! You’ve raised your voices & concerns to the extent that some members have decided to listen to you! Keep learning, educating, & speaking, AND WE WILL ALL come out better & stronger!

Both Trump and Musk will be remembered by history as evil sociopaths.

After Texas made performing abortions a felony in August 2022, ProPublica found, the number of blood transfusions during emergency room visits for first-trimester miscarriage shot up by 54%. Reporting by Kavitha Surana, Lizzie Presser and Andrea Suozzo www.propublica.org/article/texa...

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie. One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears. They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

STAGGERING: This new study of 133 countries is the first to estimate the impact of all USAID’s work. In 2 decades, it has saved *92M* lives. Current cuts, if not reversed, are forecast to cost up to *14M* lives thru 2030. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Just because he’s not smart, doesn’t mean he’s not dangerous.

Evil incarnate.

Today's decision previews a dystopian reality where a lawless President can dispense with the Constitution to deprive American children of their rights. And whether these kids have the right to defend themselves now depends on the state in which they live. That is un-American and wrong.

MUST WATCH: Oceanside CA: Militarized DHS (HSI) smashed windows, assault rifles drawn, tossed flashbangs and sent drones into the apartment which had 2 kids inside. They then told neighbors they were going to use tear gas, and they’d probably be exposed. Please share widely. WTF

You might ask: who is the Trump administration targeting? Here’s one story. Madonna “Donna” Kashanian, a 64-year-old Iranian woman who has lived in the U.S. for 47 years, was detained by ICE while gardening outside her home in New Orleans.
