In Carmel for #WSPR and missing #neotwitter (but not enough to get back on Twitter). Here’s to hoping #neosky posts about it here!

"Women are PIs on 58% of the canceled grants, although they are PIs on only 34% of all active NSF grants. Similarly, Blacks are PIs on 17% of the terminated grants, although they make only 4% of the total pool. Hispanic PIs and those with disabilities were twice as likely to lose a grant."

We cannot become numb to the outrage of this. The wife of the President’s Senior Advisor threatens a sovereign nation.

AAP learned this week that seven grants to AAP under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services are being terminated. The sudden withdrawal of these funds will directly impact and potentially harm infants, children, youth, and their families. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

Today is World Prematurity Day - a reminder of the challenges facing newborns & families. The U.S. has one of the highest preterm birth rates among developed nations & ranks poorly in maternal & infant health outcomes. It's time to address systemic inequities & improve care for every mom & baby.

Recently, parents declined the Hep B vaccine for their premature baby bc they “see all the fighting about vaccines.” This dangerous rhetoric has a very real impact. Science is real, vaccines work, & opinions are not the same as decades of research. #VaccinesSaveLives www.reuters.com/business/hea...

Election Day is almost here - you can drop off your ballot or vote in person! #gotv #vote #yesonprop50

The Dodgers would be nothing and nobody without immigrants. They won this game - and this entire series - because of immigrants. In that sense, they represent the absolute best that this country has to offer. I hope they remember all this when the White House invitation arrives.

I LOVE LA ⚾️🧢 #dodgers #worldseries #bandmeetwagon

Some favorites from the #nokings protest in Los Feliz - I love my neighborhood!

URGENT: NO LECTURES BY WAR CRIMINALS! Tell the University of Maryland School of Medicine to stop platforming war criminals and to cancel the IDF Surgeon General's October 9th lecture! 🚨 SEND NOW: bit.ly/noglassbergatumd

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

You know being a healthcare worker has been rough recently when watching the Pitt acceptance speech for best drama saying “protect [healthcare workers], trust them” legit brings tears to my eyes. #emmys

AAP's immunization recommendations are based only in the science, the needs of children, and the care that pediatricians have for the children in every community. If you have any questions about our recommended schedule, reach out to your pediatrician. aao.org

I am excited for the #USOpen but so irritated by the new mixed doubles format. Rooting for Errani and all the real doubles players! 🎾

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...

“L.A. is ours, this is our city. This is what my morning walk turned into. They’re terrorizing our neighborhood.” — a local man who was taking his morning walk when ICE staged a military invasion of MacArthur Park. www.latimes.com/california/s...

APHA, AAP, ACP, IDSA, SMFM, and the Mass. Public Health Alliance sue RFK Jr and HHS over Covid vaccine guidance. A pregnant woman is a plaintiff as well, which hopefully gives them standing.

This is NOT NORMAL. I don’t even know what to say.

Here's a friendly reminder. 📣🇺🇸

Never before in the history of this nation has such a large redistribution of income been directed upward, for no reason at all

I remember what it was like before the ACA was enacted. So many people couldn’t get on Medicaid and so they couldn’t get what they needed. I could see patients for free but how could I get them their life saving meds? Those were bad times. Medicaid is good for families and for healthcare systems.

This family entered the US legally for a court appointment seeking asylum. The child has leukemia. Secret police detained them without committing a crime and they are preventing a kid from seeing his doctor. I want to vomit. www.tpr.org/border-immig...

First time flying Alaska Airlines and woke up to find out our flight was cancelled! Rebooked on a much later flight, middle seats only, and going to miss the wedding event tonight. BOOOOO

Today’s act of resistance is changing the doctor’s lounge TV channel from Fox News to literally anything else. #adulthospitalproblems #pedsky

AP footage of Senator Alex Padilla being physically removed from Kristi Noem's press conference about the LA @schiff.senate.gov @congresstran.bsky.social Thank you, Senator @padilla.senate.gov

Curious who RFK chose to replace the actual SCIENTISTS and EXPERTS on ACIP? It is as depressing as you would think:

Here is a tweet from new ACIP member James Pagano MD:

President Trump ordered active-duty Marines to be deployed against immigrants' rights protestors in Los Angeles. This unnecessary move only inflames tensions and does nothing to protect us and our rights — the military does not belong in our communities.

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

The people of Los Angeles will rally on Monday, 6/9 to demand the release of everyone unjustly detained by ICE, like SEIU leader David Huerta, and an end to militaristic escalation on our communities. Join us and @aclusocal.bsky.social at 11 AM in LA to call for an end to these human rights abuses.

Stay safe, LA 💙

First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors. This ain’t about law and order. This is what authoritarianism looks like.

And there you have it. ICE didn't target migrant workers in Kristi Noem's farms or Sarah Huckabee Sanders' meatpacking plants because they wanted to create a riot in LA as a pretext to declaring martial law. They don't care about undocumented migrants, they only care about controlling US citizens.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

There are a LOT of sickening revelations about Blue Cross in here but I want to highlight that they found while Blue Cross denied payments for thousands of breast reconstruction procedures they approved special deals on those procedures for executives’ wives.

Switching from a beautiful tribute to Rafa #Nadal to Johnny Mac’s incessant chatter during the #Shelton match is…something. 😭➡️😑 #rolandgarros @rolandgarros.com

🚨This is a HUGE escalation and a deliberate effort to use the government against Trump's enemies. Weaponizing the Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification against Harvard to punish them for pushing back is a new low — and needlessly punishes thousands of innocent students.

📣Publication alert📣 Highly anticipated "Consensus Recommendations to Improve Neonatology Staffing" are out now! These recommendations prioritize patient safety & physician well-being & will greatly benefit our patients & workforce. Please read and share widely! doi.org/10.1542/peds...

This looks amazing and so important!! Amazing work @neodrswenson.bsky.social + team #neosky

Let's be very clear: The Trump administration is not "defending" mifepristone against a legal challenge. They're pulling a calculated move that will allow them to restrict or ban abortion medication without pushback www.politico.com/news/2025/05...

Happy Nurses Week! Grateful for all the nurses who provide incredible care to patients and their families.
