"Anytime a movie lasts, it's really a thrill. I mean, that people can still pick up on it, and still enjoy it, that makes you feel great." ~ Rob Reiner Thank you Rob Reiner for your incredible body of work. May your memory be for a blessing.

ABOUT DAMN TIME!!! 👏👏👏 Dems on the Oversight Committee launched a tracking system “to hold the Trump Administration accountable” for ICE/DHS fed abuses and misconduct. View what’s been documented so far or submit a new report: bit.ly/tellonice #TellOnICE #StopICE #ICEwatch #ICEraid #50501Movement

No Amazon. No Walmart. No Target. No Home Depot. No Black Friday. Say NO to corporate greed.

Tell your Senators to HOLD THE LINE against any blank check budget deal that does not extend the ACA tax credits. Caving on a deal will be a giant betrayal of the American people. We can't go back to a time when Americans died because they weren't rich enough for health insurance or health care.

One of the coldest #summer trips we have ever taken. We spent a month driving around #Newfoundland and met this cheeky #moose at #TuckamoreLodge #BlueSkyArtShow #naturephotography #nikon #Canada

There are many reasons why RFK Jr. should be impeached. We don't need to further stigmatize people with opioid use disorder by pointing to his history of heroin use. He is a danger to children, disabled, elderly and poor because of his ableist, anti-science, racist and eugenicist beliefs.

I am so proud of the work we do at @aetc-nccc.bsky.social and the multidisciplinary team of clinicians who staff our lines. We’re grateful to work alongside clinicians nationwide, sharing timely, case-based guidance that supports high-quality care and better outcomes. #FamilyMedicine #NurseSky #HIV

Spread the word! We are making it even easier to reach us! The NCCC remains available to address clinical questions from healthcare providers about HIV, viral hepatitis and substance use evaluation and management. Just call 844-ASK-NCCC (8444-275-6222)

📣 Clinicians! Help shape the Emergency HIV Clinical Response Task Force’s work. Take a brief anonymous survey (7–10 min) on current & anticipated disruptions to HIV services due to federal policy changes. Please share widely. 🔗 bit.ly/IAPACSurvey #MedSky #NurseSky #EpiSky

Can we agree to call the fallout of OBBA, "Maga Cuts" i.e. you no longer have medical coverage because of Maga Cuts. Your rural hospital closed because of Maga Cuts. Just like they did with "ObamaCare," we need to continually remind people of the repercussions of this reconciliation bill.

Today, I’m sharing some personal reflections on the dismantling of public health programs, the heartbreak of losing colleagues and services, and why we cannot stay silent in the face of this crisis. www.linkedin.com/pulse/we-won...

Protecting his stock portfolio while ripping away health care from 17 million Americans. This is Washington at its worst. We need to ban Congressional stock trading.

Federal HIV funding cuts are endangering lives. NCCC's CCO, Dr. Carolyn Chu explains how these cuts are already harming care: www.positivelyaware.com/articles/dea.... Tell Congress to vote NO on a budget package that slashes HIV funding, cuts Medicaid, and restricts essential care. #SaveHIVFunding

This #PrideMonth, call on Congress to reject catastrophic cuts to healthcare that will lead to higher costs to consumers and threaten access to HIV care and prevention, gender affirming care, and mental health for LGBTQ people. Congress must fully fund HIV services! #SaveHIVFunding #PrideIsAProtest

"We come, not to mourn our dead soldiers, but to praise them." – Francis A Walker Thank you to all those who have served.

Republicans in Utah commissioned an investigation into gender-affirming care for trans youth after banning it in 2023. They're now rejecting the findings of that investigation which showed access to care reduced suicides and improved "positive mental health and psychosocial functioning outcomes."

The so-called “big beautiful bill” is truly ugly. It guts Medicaid & SNAP, threatens HIV care, and deepens health inequities. The time to act is now: • Call your representatives • Support advocacy organizations • Speak out against these harmful cuts Lives are on the line. #ProtectMedicaid

Yesterday, I saw the endemic island foxes on Santa Cruz Island. Their story is a reminder of how deeply we impact earth and its fragile ecosystems. Nearly disappeared because of human actions, through collaboration, conservation, and care, they made a comeback. #Earth #BlueSkyArtShow #Nikon #Nature

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Personally, I think it should be front page news for at least a month if a sitting US President is using falsified evidence to try and deny due process to a man who has committed no crime, but that’s just me

It's a heartbreaking day for public health. Mass layoffs at the CDC mean we are less safe from preventable outbreaks and future health crises. Like many, the CDC inspired my path into public health. I’m grieving the loss of expertise, history, and protection. We deserve so much better.

For over 30-years, the National Clinician Consultation Center has been U.S.-based health care provider's "phone-a-friend." Our center relies on vital support from the CDC. Today, we need your support to keep our vital services going. learn more: conta.cc/4ht8DOp

Friends, we need your help. Please call your representatives and tell them to protect HIV prevention funding. Without sustained support, we risk reversing decades of progress in preventing HIV, hepatitis, and STIs.

We must fight back! The Trump Administration is planning to completely eliminate the CDC’s Division of HIV Prevention, as quickly as within the next 24 hours. #SaveHIVFunding #MedSky #NurseSky #HIVSky

ALERT: We heard from reliable sources that secret meetings are taking place to cut $700m from CDC's domestic HIV prevention program. This is supposed to happen in the next day or so. Call members of Congress NOW: demand a legislative inquiry and support for HIV prevention funding/programming.
