A piece of broccoli and a corn tortilla?!

Rep. Lieu: “Greg Bovino last night made a post that essentially called protesters, ‘cannon fodder.’ He needs to delete that post, or he needs to resign…If Greg Bovino and the administration doesn't turn down the rhetoric, it's going to cause more people to get killed.”

Worth noting that the only people being violent and rioting are CBP and ICE.

A reminder that the largest cuts in Medicaid’s history enacted last year paid to triple ICE’s budget. Medicaid/CHIP covers nearly half of children in the U.S. and is the largest payor of long term care. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/12/u...

“There’s no defined ‘high risk’,” said @kevinault.bsky.social. More than 80% of babies hospitalized with RSV are otherwise healthy - which means “all babies in the first few months of life are at high risk for RSV.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

👇Ice Officers are are murder for hire group!

Trump bragging about his $400 million ballroom and getting up to admire the construction site as he meets with oil company executives looking to plunder Venezuela with money from US taxpayers basically sums up this entire admin perfectly.

@megtirrell.bsky.social Just saw your report on CNN. Please don’t be afraid to say the SC outbreak started in a private school w/ 17% vax coverage, and it is that low largely bc of religious and exemptions. It’s a problem that needs to be acknowledged. troytassier.substack.com/p/our-privat...

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

Trump & RFK Jr.'s coterie of bootlicking doctors are real pieces of shit, we argue in the British Medical Journal, essentially. Link: www.bmj.com/content/392/...

With alt text Virologist James Alwine tells it like it is: “Kennedy’s decision will harm and kill children, like all of his anti-vaccination decisions will”

Read the whole thread. Gregg is right. It’s NOT a question of “experts disagree.” I’ve been working in medicine, medical journalism or global health for 32 years & know a LOT of health professionals—I do not know a *single one* who supports RFK Jr’s dangerous dismantling of the US vaccine system.

This is how you do it. No preamble to swear to God you don't like Maduro.

Members of Congress: stop posting online and APPEAR, PHYSICALLY on the steps of the Capitol to decry this unconstitutional violation of domestic & international law. SHOW THE PEOPLE the level of danger we are facing as a country. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social

Just an excellent read. We are winning. Trust me. The fight is worth it. Read this from my friend Dan Barkhuff. open.substack.com/pub/dbarkhuf...

All of the people in this photo descend from America's 2nd Vice President and 3rd President, Thomas Jefferson. Would JD consider these people white? If not, why not? They're all "heritage Americans" in that they descend from a founder, yes?

the vice president is a klansman

At my local grocery store. Love Vermont!

The CDC has approved ending blanket recommendations for HBV vax at birth 😩 Will hurt people & increase healthcare costs Whether you care about humans or stocks, this is obviously dumb Vaccination = huge return on financial investment Healthy workforce = 🤑 Need to make this case to finance bros

I'm very tired of repeating myself about this, but, as someone who works professionally on housing affordability, this is a disgusting lie.

Police blotter for December 1st in our town was a doozy

Page One in Indy: #redistrict 🇺🇸

This is a white supremacist rally. Anyone who attends something like this or still supports the leader of this movement should be unwelcome in your home and shunned from civil society. Period. We’re way past the point where this crap should be tolerated from anyone. Cast them out.

Between 2017 and 2024, the percentage of newborns not receiving intramuscular vitamin K for prophylaxis nearly doubled, with refusal rates highest outside hospital births and among certain racial and ethnic groups. #HotTopicsNeo2025 ja.ma/48nSkBf

Parents will still be able to get the hepatitis B vaccine for their children at no cost even though the CDC's vaccine advisers recommended a major change to the immunization practice. https://cnn.it/3Ml3kqo

“This disease has gone down in the United States thanks to the effectiveness of our current immunization program,” adviser Cody Meissner said. “In your opinion,” vice-chair Robert Malone said, interrupting him. “Uhh, these are facts, Robert,” Meissner responded. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Helpful article re the importance of Hep B vaccine by @tarahaelle.bsky.social but what stood out: (All CDC links in this article are either CDC-archived ones or from Internet Archive, dated prior to Jan. 20, 2025, to reduce the risk of non-evidence-based updates under the new administration.)

Fuck you if you support him.

This is the most important op-ed you'll read this week. The Trump administration is about to get rid of the birth-dose of hepatitis B vaccine. That is a deadly choice for many families. @helenouyang.bsky.social tells her story. Now call your member of Congress. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/o...

VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM! However Measles can cause encephalitis and brain damage. Chickenpox can lead to permanent scars. Meningitis has long term consequences like seizures and motor function disorders. Polio can cause respiratory paralysis. Vaccines are SAFE and prevent life long misery.

First let me say what’s most important -- fuck Bill Cassidy

@greenhousemd.bsky.social #medsky

We are witnessing a poisonous effort to destroy what the vast majority of Americans know is a key pillar of public health. Vaccines are responsible for 40% of the reduction in child mortality achieved in the last half century.

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

There’s real irony in this: lawmakers can’t get back to DC to vote to reopen the government because flights are canceled, thanks to the same shutdown they caused.

Back out there on a beautiful Thursday. Lots of honks and waves. So much to stand up against, but so much to stand for. Keep finding the people who will be there with you to keep fighting for everyone else. #FoodNotBallrooms #FoodIsAHumanRight #SaveSNAP #Indivisible Song: Mon Rovîa, “Heavy Foot”

I helped make a film, out this week, called “Rovina’s Choice,” about the deaths this man without conscience or accountability has caused — already 600,000, ⅔ of them children.

The “Home Goods” White House: @governor.ca.gov

Let's help Clay out here with some math. The $4200/yr. is for a household. Average SNAP household has 1.9 people. So that's $2210/person. $2210/year is $184/month, and that's a little over $6. per day. Clay, let's see you stockpile groceries on $6/day. Hell, let's see you eat on $6/day.

"Ms. Monahan, 61, paid $439 a month for her coverage in 2025. When she went to shop for next year’s plan, she learned that the monthly cost would jump to $1,059 for the same plan with an annual deductible of $7,100..." Thanks, GOP congress! Thanks, Trump! www.nytimes.com/2025/10/29/h...

“Go get a real job” is quickly becoming the popular refrain for dealing with these losers

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc
