If you are on Covered California or ACA time to call the lawmakers all federal wall makers, including those who don’t represent you, but who are empowered such as Michael Johnson if you’re in Louisiana, or other southern states and depend on medicaid call all of your representatives
Millions of Americans are confronting the highest health insurance costs in years. @reedabelson.bsky.social son explains why. Obamacare subsidies expire in 3 weeks. The clock is ticking on Capitol Hill. Congress may push the issue off until next year.

Heads up all covered California members and all nationally covered under ACA. Squeaky wheel time. Lawmakers will go home with their health insurance intact for themselves and their families and enjoy a wonderful holiday. Get all checkups lab work screening and refills done now!!

This "No Kings" song from Jesse Welles is giving me Dylanesque vibes and flashbacks to earlier eras of protests for peace and civil rights and women's rights. Those led to big things. This is starting to feel big, too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXWD...

The Chan-Zuckerbergs stopped funding social causes. 400 kids lost their school.

Priscilla Chan’s decision to stop funding the school she opened to help struggling families shows the risks for communities reliant on wealthy private donors.

There were rumors that Gatwa was leaving, so I'm more disappointed than surprised. This feels like Eccleston's Ninth Doctor all over again.

As for the incoming Sixteenth Doctor... yeah, even with RTD back, I didn't see THAT coming.

Anyone think Musk is going away? Wasn’t he required to as a special advisor? His time was up, right? This all reeks of PR manipulation.

R.F.K. Jr is an attorney and not a scientist or MD. NEJM, JAMA, BMJ, the Lancet , etc. all peer review the studies in their publications. So are we gonna have an attorney vet and possibly censor the scientific reports? That does not appear to be a very good idea at all.
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said that he could bar government scientists from publishing in the world’s leading medical journals, instead proposing the creation of “in-house” publications by his agency.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. took aim at reputed journals such as the Lancet and said the agency will create “in-house” publications instead.

WSJ why not do an exclusive on emerging strain of COVID and R.F.K. Jr’s pleasure in removing access to vaccines from pregnant women and healthy children? WSJ News staff is excellent and I would like to read the exclusive investigation. Tinder users actually include women of child-bearing age

It’s a long thread but worth unfurling it and to digest. Shocking and disturbing comparison involving Larry Kramer.
I subscribe to the @newyorker.com, I was part of ACT UP, I knew Larry Kramer well and know Tony Fauci too. Daniel Immerwahr's piece on RFKJr, features this and other passages that need a reponse. 1/
