This picture broke me, but the description of this kidnapping by a witness who says ICE referred to this precious child as “it” as they took him away fills me with an unspeakable, murderous rage.

This is exactly what I’ve been saying. Like >30 people have to have been pretty actively involved along the way, though that seems low. Nobody stopped it. Maybe someone said “this doesn’t seem right.” But nobody put themselves, their bodies, their careers on the line enough to save a small child.

The biggest public health issue right now is that the Trump administration is kidnapping people, including kids, using chemical weapons on them, torturing and abusing them, putting them in concentration camps, & murdering them. Again, I ask: why are the physicians in the Trump regime OK with this?

Really disappointed that @natmed.nature.com is amplifying propaganda that sets out to justify the destruction of biomedical research in the US and around the world. Just because people are in power does not mean journals should launder their credibility.

Shabbat shalom and a peaceful weekend as we honor the memory, spirit, and convictions of MLK. (Braided by the kids. The circle is meant to be a peace sign).

Thank you, @jeremyfaust.bsky.social, for this public service; we have all wanted to see the protocol of this deeply unethical trial being funded by RFK Jr in Guinea-Bissau, I’m grateful you obtained it and have published it insidemedicine.substack.com/p/scoop-the-...

The arsonist used terminology ("synagogue of Satan") that the online anti-semitic far right figures like Nick Fuentes and Candace Owens use magnoliatribune.com/2026/01/13/a...

Continue to cope with this timeline with more bread.

Mississippi’s largest synagogue was set on fire before dawn Saturday. Fire department ruled it arson, and a suspect has been arrested. It is the same synagogue that the Ku Klux Klan bombed in 1967 because the rabbi supported civil rights. mississippitoday.org/2026/01/10/f...

Shabbat shalom and a peaceful weekend, somehow. Older daughter did seven braid, younger daughter made a snowflake challah.

I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.

Shabbat shalom, a happy new year, and a peaceful weekend to all. Round challahs with rainbow sprinkles inside and gold and silver sprinkles outside.

Wishing everyone a Shabbat shalom and a happy holiday week no matter what you celebrate or not. Came out so nice i had to post it twice.

Night 8. All of the light on the winter solstice. To more light moving forward.

Night 7. More light and more oil.

one of four in a week www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/n...

Babies are going to die. This is what Donald Trump, Russ Vought, RFK Jr., Marty Makary, Vinay Prasad, Tracy Beth Hoeg, Jay Bhattacharya and Matthew Memoli have brought us. Avoidable child deaths from preventable infectious diseases. www.statnews.com/2025/12/19/d...

Chapter 5 here is about the covid amnesia project. There was a coordinated movement, led by our current medical establishment, to encourage forgetfulness. It worked.

It is utterly catastrophic that RFK Jr. plans to end CDC recommendations for most childhood vaccines. It’s a betrayal of science, ethics, compassion, and the people of the United States. And it was also a specific goal of Project 2025 (page 254).

67 Senators could remove RFK Jr. today but there aren’t 67 Senators who care about Americans’ lives, health, or wellbeing. Babies will die. Our leaders hate us.

Sixth night and Shabbat shalom and a peaceful weekend to all.

Happy Chanukah night 5, first lighting in community and then at home.

RFK Jr. has cancelled grants to the American Academy of Pediatrics because “they no longer align with departmental priorities”. The grants were on such topics as “reducing sudden infant death, rural access to health care, and mental health…” The AAP has criticized RFK Jr. That’s the real reason.

Night 4!

Night 3. More light.

Night 2. More light after so much sad news this weekend.

Chag sameach, holding my girls too tightly while we light. I don’t want to live in a world where I hesitate before going to the public menorah lighting in our town (but glad we went.). Praying for peace and safety for all.

Running a little late but it’s still technically fall. Two pumpkin challahs. Wishing everyone a peaceful Shabbat and weekend, and grace for whatever you are running late on :).

Shabbat shalom and a peaceful weekend to all. More kid braided ones!

As the mom of a five-year-old reading this and imagining what this family is going through made me physically ill. Unimaginable evil is being perpetrated before our eyes and with our tax dollars.

Senator Kelly is correct. Plus a Public Service Announcement: KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1. The VERY rule on the "requirement" to refuse illegal orders gives as its paradigmatic example of what is "clearly illegal: "orders to fire upon the shipwrecked."

Shabbat shalom, a peaceful weekend, and a happy Thanksgiving. With husband’s work it was just us this weekend. But here’s a pic of yesterday’s cranberry apple loaf cake and today’s challah. (Rain check on the pumpkin challah for a week or two!)

Trump calls Governor Tim Walz “retarded.” How do MAGA parents justify the use of this word? How does Sen. Eric Schmitt, who has an autistic son, justify it?

Shabbat shalom and a peaceful weekend to all.

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

RFK Jr had committed to Bill Cassidy, as a condition to win his vote, that he would keep website language. Cassidy in February: “If confirmed… CDC will not remove statements on their website pointing out that vaccines do not cause autism.” Note the language in second photo.

This is pretty amazing. This guy just won a solid victory in Bucks County, PA, one of the most important swing counties in the country, by *explicitly and deliberately* making his race *all about* nationalizing ICE raids. Confirms the point about this now being a winning issue for Dems.

There is never just one victim.

Look, I know we're all sick of hearing "if this had happened with any other president ..." but it's absolutely true and absolutely can't be forgotten. For some reason, this nation gives this idiotic spoiled brat a free pass from things that would destroy the administration of any other person.

Shabbat shalom and a peaceful weekend to all.

It is sickening to see someone trafficking in such hate and prejudice while proudly displaying a Jewish star necklace. You must not oppress the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. Just the most basic of Hebrew school lessons was too hard for her apparently.

i am saddled with the thought of how different our world would be if we believed women.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

And yet The NY Times falsely perverted and perseverated on HER emails. The rot is deep.

Like I dunno, maybe the reason it took a lady to break open the story of all the men protecting the dude trafficking underage girls is because the male journos were all emailing him making jokes about it?

Shabbat shalom and a peaceful weekend to all.

The solution to the male loneliness epidemic is attending a local Democratic Party canvassing event.

Good morning. Every reporter should be asking Kathy Hochul if she’s asked for Jay Jacobs resignation yet. He didn’t support the Dem nominee for mayor, he didn’t invest in Long Island, and because of that we were a lone red wave in an otherwise blue sea. We need change now. He has to go before 2026.

Brilliant night for Democrats across the board (NJ, VA, NYC, PA, GA, CA), but complete failure on Long Island*. NYs and national Dems have put up with the incompetence of Jay Jacobs for decades. Kathy Hochul must ask for his resignation.

Republicans who think your seat is safe: no it's not
